what is your worst web site

What web site upsets you most when entering comps, the one that does my head in is 'Female first' it takes ages to load and then still locks up when you try to enter your details, probably because it knows i'm a man.
I do it just for fun and whatever I win is a bonus

    Yes, I agree with that site - slow to load with lots of ads! And why ask if you are single?

    Funny you should say that, when I saw the title of your thread Female First came to mind straight away before I'd even read your comment! I only enter them if it's something I really want to win, always takes ages to load properly (and I'm female:)).

    Mine are ' The Lady' magazine comps. As soon as I start filling the form in it disappears to a subscription popup and i have to start again. And then it does it AGAIN !!:mad:

    Agree with Female First and The Lady- only really enter on that one to laugh at the upper class job advertisements!
    Also the New Mag/DailyExpress/Daily Star etc seem to take ages to load for me- I usually open them all at once in multiple tabs and wait for them to get round to it.

    All of the above especially Female First why do they need to know so much personal info? The Lady adverts are very annoying because they don't pop up until I've done half my form filling and they usually pop up two or three times.
    The Boiler company comps where you physically cannot un- tick the 'contact me' box
    Xperia only allows me to enter selected comps and I still have no idea why this is but it just tells me that the competition is not available for me.
    Any web site with a secret tick box hidden away underneath all the entry form blurb and terms and conditions in minuscule writing in the bottom corner ! Not sporting in my opinion

    I was thinking exactly the same this morning....it has to be female first with the lady a close second!

    I agree with the above. Definitely Female First, as all the ads float over the screen, and takes ages to load.


    Also the Bauer media sites these days - the tricky captcha codes are awful!
