HEY GORMEL!!!!!!
















Please come back. Don't make me have to put in the effort you did and start posting comps! ....Also cant help but notice that Priestess101 has posted jacksh1t since they came in and ruined a perfectly pleasant thread.

Reading things like that, who would want to post in your hostile thread anyway? I see a moderator has even liked this insulting post towards me, wow well done Muffler, great moderating!

Its a pity to see priestess belittling herself with the continuing snide comments though.

Thanks ZombieMed, a lesson to be learnt for all involved. I used to love posting competitions and hearing people winning. Yet here I am having to defend myself the past few days against mods and others posters alike. I'm afraid the shine has really taken off this pleasant thread since all the negative talk started.

Anyway, I truly hope we can all resolve any misunderstandings that might have arisen and pray that Gormal comes back to us when he/she is ready. A good man/woman indeed!

Best, P

Keep posting competitions but dont try to backseat mod - maybe you could have a separate thread for paid comps? I would prefer to see the free ones in the main comp thread.

Paid comps? You mean purchase to enter like the Summer Tropicana £10,000 promotion or the daily free lottery etc?

Like any free daily lottery site, they earn money from advertising, they're investing a lot at the start to get it up and running. I think perhaps you are misunderstanding the 'free bonus cash' part of the site, and how that cash can't be accessed until you've had a syndicate win?

Also, I wonder if you don't understand comping as a hobby too - after all, that's spending time trying to win free things, be they cash, money, gadgets or whatever! And many of those comps are the daily plugging away at the instant wins, prize draws, spin the wheels etc - it costs us nothing but a second of our time to enter. You may not like the referral aspect, but that's how a lot of competitions work, reliant on people sharing to their friends or community. And I'm only going to win something if one of my friends wins anyway - if they don't check every day then they won't win a penny (and nor will I!)

I've no interest in referral-based or pay to enter competitions either - I think it's a great idea to have a separate thread or threads for these types of competitions, so that people who are interested can find them easily and so that those who aren't interested won't have to navigate around them.

Done, I created the Purchase Needed Competitions & Daily Free Lotteries threadS

I entered the coke competition quite regularly but I’m surprised with the come backs.

I’ve received 3 vouchers. It almost feels I’m being sent them by mistake. Have I just been very lucky or has anyone else received multiples?

Priestess101

Guys, the 'Win A House Competitions' thread is set up. I'lll be adding more Irish House raffles after the weekend for anybody who is interested.

Do people have much success with Instagram competitions? They are becoming more frequent.

I never bother with FB comps as I don’t want to clog up friends feeds and the number for the comps always seem high.

I think I've won maybe one Instagram competition in the last year. A lot ask you to share to your story or tag loads of people which to me is on par with Facebook sharing/tagging. I find Twitter is the easiest to find competitions and less head wrecking for others.

I have won a good few times on instagram, last time was a hamper 2 months ago.

Any update on personalised named Skechers?

Nothing since I was informed of the delay. It shouldn't be a problem. Katie is the best CS person I've ever dealt with.
We wouldn't be getting much wear out of them at the moment anyway.

I fear my niece's foot will be too small by the time they arrive

I have a few €€s to use up before the end of the month, had anyone noticed any pay to enter text comps, I have entered both on rte , I don't want to get into a subscription service so am very cautious, thanks all

I have won on Instagram but agree Twitter is best. I always avoid competitions that require you to post to your story on Instagram I just don’t want to
have my feed clogged up with competitors.

I think they have general competition terms and then one specific to individual competitions

I'm going with:
2.1 Open to UK and Eire residents only.

Anyone received any info about the personalised skechers? I won't be contacting them unless people have started receiving them, but I found out one of my Coca Cola prizes had gone astray so wanted to ensure I wasn't missing this one. Coke are great though - sent out a new one once I contacted them.
