    Hi all, how do you notify someone if you see that a comp has ended but not been moved?
    Cheers

    Sorry to say I'll not be able to post the Pick Me Up magazine comps at the moment, I am still in the middle of trying to sort out my subscription seeing as though I have had no magazine for the last FOUR weeks (2 of which I was on holiday so couldn't do anything about it) It seems my subscription has been cancelled but yet they have payment upto September so I'm not sure what's happening with it at the moment. Could someone - maybe Korky? - please post the answers whilst I try get this sorted? Thanks very much in advance!

    I am going to be late posting the answers for Chat as well, for at least a couple of weeks, simply because I have so much to sort out. Will still put them up eventually if no-one else does :D

    I've won 2 of those paintball comps now, but have hesitated before adding them to my total, because as I feel that as they are a scammy thing price wise, I would be a bit naughty doing so. What do you think I should do? icon5.gif:confused:

    I haven't added it to mine :rolleyes: , I agree with you :)

    I only enter for ones I want to win & I average a good couple of £100 worth of prizes a month, although so far this year I've done really well & got an average of about £800 a month so far!

    Hi everyone
    I'm pretty new to the site, and especially the competitions area,(and I have no free time any more :D ).

    Question
    I have entered some comps and yesterday got a phone call that was an automated call saying 'congratulations, you have won a carribean holiday, press 9 etc etc.'
    Yes I have entered a few comps for holidays but my gut instinct is that if I had won such a holiday, then I'm more likely to get contact from a real person - this sounds like a scam - so I simply put the phone down.
    Has anyone else won a major prize and been informed in such a way (I hope not) - I hope I haven't just turned a win down :confused:

    Any thoughts???
    Wins so far in 2011

    Nothing, zip, nada, zilch, nowt!!
