Raffle Sites

serena9

I'm thinking about entering some comps on raffle sites, I'm happy to pay a little, does anyone have any recommendations for reputable raffle sites or maybe warnings to stay away from any particular sites? Any other advice? or maybe winning stories? I already enter the Omaze draw each month and have won £10 credit for various sites such as asos three times, thanks for any advice.

A previous thread (most of these sites including Omaze offer a free entry route to avoid most of the regulations that would otherwise apply)

Thanks, I've seen that thread and wanted to expand on it, I'm going to do some more research this week, my social media is now full of ads for such sites after I posted this yesterday

I only enter the free comps on the raffle sites had one win of £100 last year, no intention of paying to enter.

i don’t enter on any of these sites, there’s something about them that just doesn’t sit right with me - a bit too close to gambling perhaps? They seem to be quite a different animal from the promotional ones.

They are free to enter and give good prizes, what's not to love.

I checked out one this evening and to me it all seems a bit bizarre. There was 3p entry for chance to win £2k and 15p for chance to win £15k yet there was one £20 entry for chance to win £1k ? Bizarre !

So similar to lottery scratch cards? With them at least the publish some probabilities so you can understand why a higher fee may have a lower jackpot when you see the win rate is higher.

I've found quite a bit of info on another comp site if anyone is interested. for the old school compers it's the quack quack site, message me if anyone wants any more info, thanks to all and good luck!
