Hi
Had an email today from a Louise Bulgin saying ive won £200 in a comp from last year,she says the reason for the delay was they've changed the way they issue payments.They issue them from HSBC now and it seems a complicated process.
In the days of various scams around i feel a bit unsure,has anyone else won through Best magazine or maybe any sister magazines and have had to go through a process of signing up to a HSBC website?
Appreciate any help

I had similar e mail yesterday for £50 they said not got my mobile (thought we put that in the form?) so have sent it to them but she (Louise ) is out of office till Friday. There is an option for paypal so will use that as not wanting to put bank details in think it is legit though. well done on your £200

I won last year and the HSBC link is legit, you get a text link and then there is a process to follow and the money drops into your bank1
