    I Agree posters doing end dates are marvels & I thank them so much because I miss loads & appreciate their hard work. Having said that agree if posted too early b4 end date, some may be missed, & I have got confused with early postings some 10 days away. Decided will not look at more than 2 days b4 Ending.

    Oh dear. great peeps, great site, sad gripes. but please what is form for posting end date. is it like 01/01/08 or not, please advise.

    The correct way to put the end date is this:

  • I think i've got totally confused with all the talk of bickering (dont' worry not going to start that part of the thread up again! lol)

    I just haven't seen any! I like it here, and don't feel got at if I post a comp that has been posted before, and find people very friendly and helpful.

    Hopefully everyone who isn't feeling that way can get back to feeling that soon :D

    Most boards go through little hiccups like this fairly regularly so it's all par for the course.

    And if I offended anyone with my post asking where all the bickering was going on, then sorry! lol :eek:

  • I am very new to to this so please forgive me! I have just received a call to say that I had a chance of a £300 makeover-in Covent Garden!!! :j How fantastic I thought, I've not been entering comps long and I have won a fab prize. The lady gave me all the spiel until she said VERY QUICKLY that I would have to pay £49 for the photo. Then the killer:huh: I would have to pay £99.98 upfront by credit card to reserve/hold (refundable if I turn up on the fixed appoitnment) my 'appointment' and then she said what was the expiry date on my card!! I can't tell you how disappointed I feel. From thinking I will look fab for once in my life to feeling well a bit rubbish. There were so many people in the background it sounded like a call centre and not someone ringing from there office in Covent Garden. :embarasse When I said that I would have to speak to my husband first before parting with £100 it all started to get a bit frosty. She will hold the possible chance of the makeover until tomorrow but no later. And to think I stopped my twins bed time story to answer the call:embarasse Has anyone else heard of these people? It has kind of put me off entering comps if this is what happens.
