Problem with MD sites?

With the MD sites I could enter a couple of competitions but then I get an Amazon-hosted captcha which I pass, then "403 Forbidden". Anyone else having this issues?

    I have had all sorts of problems this afternoon even managed to enter MMAW 50 times while doing them.
    I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus
  • Not had any problems but finding the having to click no thanks all the time to be a pain and time consuming. Have noticed it appearing for the past 2 or 3 weeks but only lasting a day this week though it has been 3 days so far. Doesn't help having been away and only having slow wifi but back at sisters now and home tomorrow.

    I've had the same issue with getting the same offer every day and having to say no thanks on every competition. Glad it's not just me, yet I know of someone else who isn't having any problems. I've contacted one of the mags, so hopefully it might get resolved (although I doubt that anything will be done over the weekend).

    Same here although only checked 1 mag so far fingers crossed all ok when I go through them later on.
  • Yes, I've had this problem for the past 2 days, I get correct then 404 or 403, I then carry on with the next mds then go back to the other one, the amount of time I between varies. It is a right pain but not much we can do about it unfortunately. 
    I wake up at stupid o'clock & make a start on them, it's very frustrating especially when I give myself a time scale to get them done, does anyone else give themselves a time scale for doing MDS'S. Hopefully it won't last too Good luck everyone xxx

    same here on all the MDs I have tried no point in trying to enter when they are like that, taking 3 times longer to enter one comp.

    Log in sequence has changed, now have to log in through a pop up which says 'successfully logged in' but doesn't actually log me in - can't enter anything!

    ...&/or logs in and opens comp page but then when try to enter get the same 'unlock' pop up as already mentioned on this thread, which asks for log in again - and round and round it goes

    &/or says 'incorrect password' - have tried changing p.word, on one site only as a test, makes no difference at all.

    Can't find email addresses for PR teams at the various mags otherwise would contact, anyone know how to do this?
