    sorry...i didn't know that
  • I never got any junk email, I used sweetcollect@mydomain.com and not one single piece from them.
  • you can get shed loads of sweets, but you need loads of spare time to waste.

    From my understanding of this sites T&Cs. You are not going to get sent a free sweet just for signing up.

    They state.

    sweetcollect.co.uk is an exciting new website where you can earn free sweets just for clicking on adverts!

    In their terms they state.

    Sweets are only sent out when you have accumulated at least 25 sweets. However some advertisers can earn you many sweets in one go so it shouldn't be hard.

    From my reading of this, you will only be sent anything after you have clicked enough adverts to accumulate at least 25 sweets. This is not a good freebie. Looks like loads of spam, and you only get anything after clicking through multiple adverts (with no guarantees of what the ads might install or where they may take you)

    Everyone should be careful with their personal info on the net. It is worth money to companies, and should be guarded by each of us.

  • I was a member about a year ago and accumalated loads of sweets but never received any! I have since closed my account as I found them to be a waste of space and was fed up with all of the junk emails I kept getting.

    I was the same as you bargain hunting.

    I accumulated a heap of sweets, then when I had enough to be sent out to me, it kept saying "in despatch" or something like that for months, then eventually, I couldn't even log on to the site.

    They never replied to any of my emails, and I sent several, always polite.

    I think that you do....
