    The rule says

    2. Free Competitions Only. This is a not a place to advertise competitions you have to pay to enter. I will accept limited cost text message type competitons (though frankly they're usually naff apart from in special circumstances) where they cost up to £1.50 to text to enter, but generally I would say make sure they are free.

    I'm pretty sure Martin doesn't like almost extorsionatephone numbers like 090 for competition which in the past has been rigged the companies running competition.

    Basically try to stay away from comps where you have to pay to be entered in.
    Polo the above poster has a history of being narky to comp posters, read his post history! x

    They had many issues with rigged phone comps and recieved a massive fine and telling off 2 weeks back, the last few months if u check our iwon section and loquaxs there have been many winners all of a sudden on these comps, so they at last seem to be paying out to internet entries xxxxx

    At the end of the day - if you don't want to enter because £1 is too steep, that is entirely your choice.

    But I hope many do enter and one of us wins! (i'll be sniffing about for the winner to give me my quid back then):rotfl:
