I'm sorry not to read through 39 pages and counting to look for something relevant to me, but I still get ZERO search results every time I try to find the updated ITV comps for postal entries. Even the search term "DERBY" on its own produces literally nothing at all. And yet, oddly, if I look for big-ticket comps by searching for "000" then I get 44 results right now. Sensible-looking results. I am on a new iMac with a new version of Google Chrome. What's up?

I know search is playing up, so wouldn't hold up much hope of finding them by searching for them.  I don't know if I am stating the obvious, but there are only four pages of comps on the post, phone and text sub-board, so surely it wouldn't take long to flick through the titles.

on the subject of the post, phone and text sub-board, it's the one thing I don't get an email for any more, does anyone else get one still?

Since the changes I get email whenever anyone comments on a thread I once subscribed too. Thought I must have unsubscribed as a) It's the O2 Priority Moments thread and I've not been on O2 for a couple of years, and b) I never had emails before the changes!  Now, I have looked, honestly, but I can't find how to even view a list. let alone un-subscribe. And as for searching...

If you go to edit your profile and "Notification Preferences" you can change preferences to e-mail, pop up, both or none for how you get notified of all sorts of things including bookmarked (subscribed) theads 
In view your profile if you go to notifications they will then show below all your badges - if you click towards the end of the title of the thread that you want to remove that will take you to the thread where you should be able to unbookmark it - i don't know if there is any way to do this other than one by one (I bookmark everything as there is no tick/cross so switched off all notifications some time ago)

Thank-you   !
I obviously hadn't scrolled down far enough to view the notifications below my badges. Lots of notifications! 
In the "Notifications Preferences" it doesn't really seem set up for this forum - 

Notify me when people write on my wall.
Notify me when people reply to my wall comments.... I confess I hadn't made the connection between "Bookmarked" and "Subscribed" as I had quite a few threads bookmarked  because this was suggested as a quick way to view "Skipped" without opening each thread in the early days post "The change." I was only getting the O2 thread notifications. (Given up trying to understand why certain things happen, or don't any more, LOL! All unticked now, so we'll see. Sadly I don't have a great deal of faith in stuff happening that makes life easier

Not the only one - I spent sometime before I scrolled down far enough - that's also where your posts of threads or replies appear if you click on that part of your profile

What a complete shambles the 'New Improved' Comping section is. I have waited for things to get better - they haven't. Why do we still have text being imposed on to previous entries. If I'd wanted to do puzzles I'd have gone to Bletchley.

If things don't radically alter, and soon, I will join the army of Compers walking away, with a heavy heart.
