    Just received this reply, so hopefully it should be better now.

    Thank you for contacting the Celebs Now competition marketing team.

    Apologies for this, we have altered the frequency and this ad should not show as much after you’ve given your answer. Your answer does not effect your entry into the competition and there is no pressure to answer either way.

    Just tried entering some and no change!!!! I have replied to the email informing them of this, so hopefully they may press the right button soon and get rid of this menace.

    I have also just contacted them through the 2020 triathlon comps page. I have asked about why mag comps are all ending a day early and let them know that it started when the clocks went forward as I suspect it has something to do with that. I also mentioned the annoying adverts.

    On a plus point a lot of those annoying comps that used to appear every month seem to have disappeared 😂
