    I agree - I have lost count of the phonecalls I have had from them in the past, sometimes a few times a week!!!! plus they pass your details on to other companies who then also spam you!!!

    Thank you anyway OP!!

    Yeah think i'll give it a miss too, any comp' that demands you give home & mobile phone numbers is alwasy suspect. But thanks for posting the comp' I am sure you didn't know.

    I love that avatar.

    Not sure I agree with what you say about giving details, however - they need to be able to tell you that you have won the prize.

    As the first two posters say, however, steer clear of their comps, as they are very spammy. I've got a list of them, which I post every so often, to warn people about them.

    Here it is - additions gratefully received!!
