Re: Outlook - 6 years ago
Hi Deborah, I have been having problems with Outlook too. I had several days when I got no emails at all and several times it has just stopped working for a couple of hours. I think it is some sort of general problem as there are web sites where you can report these issues and lots of people seem to be experiencing the same problems. Luckily I am on BT internet and can pick my emails up from Yby Den - Off Topic Forum
Re: Mistake on the Quiz question on 13th August - 6 years ago
I have found the alternative answer to The Rose and Crown but it does state 'The Rose and Crown stood near to the ? & ? and other contemporary accounts confirm the inquest took place at the latter tavern.' All a bit uncertain really but you have to go with the name that is in the options. Sorry but I didn't want to show the alternative answer and spoil it for others who wantby Den - General Competition Chat

Star Shaker - 6 years ago
Had an email yesterday to let me know I had won the April Star Shaker and received the cheque today. Brilliant, thank you. Hopefully starting a new run of prizes as this is the third win in two weeks.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: Winner notification - 7 years ago
A few weeks ago I received an email informing me that I had won a prize in the BT competition and asking me to provide my details so that they could post it to me. I was a bit cautious and telephoned BT to confirm before giving out any information. Pleased to say that I received the prize last week but I do get a bit uneasy when I receive requests like that.by Den - General Competition Chat

Re: My wins in 2016 - 7 years ago
I had quite a good year last year. Not in quantity but in value with 2 x £500 cash prizes as well as 1x £150 2 x £100 and 1 x£25. I also won £8000 of photographic equipment, and a case of wine, as well as a lot of little bits and pieces. I do use other competition sites and the cash prizes all come via that site. Looking forward to another good comping year. Wishing you all good luck in 201by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: Winners - 7 years ago
Just had a great start to the day with a cheque for £500 from the Sunday Mirror Star Search competition. Been going through a bit of a quiet patch prize wise lately. Hope it is the start of another winning spell.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: DOES ANYBODY ACTUALLY WIN? - 7 years ago
Hi Pippin, yes I am. I enter on a couple of other sites that give a wider range of entry methods. There are a lot of magazine comps that are not on this site.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: DOES ANYBODY ACTUALLY WIN? - 7 years ago
I find it tends to go in batches. I tend to go for months with nothing and then several all together. February was a particularly good month when I won several totalling about £10,000.00 that was my best month ever but nothing since. Fingers crossed I may be building up to another batch of prizes soon. I enter as many as possible every month and hopefully by the law of averages I must win sometimby Den - General Competition Chat
Star Shaker - 8 years ago
Bit of a problem with todays Star Shaker. I can find at least three living men that fit that anagram.by Den - UK Forum
Re: Open The Box - 8 years ago
Same for me. I got a £10 voucher. Its the only way of using the coins. Every time I try I just hope I don't get more coins.by Den - General Competition Chat

Re: Daily Quiz Questions - 8 years ago
Another problem with the 'our' comps. The January Daily Quiz Question 18. The correct answer doesn't seem to be any of the options available.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: Daily Quiz Questions - 8 years ago
Bit of a problem with todays daily quiz question. As far as I can see there could be 2 possible answers. Do you go for the lower answer which in fact is further away from the actual amount or the higher answer which although over the actual amount is nearer to it. Both of them could be described as approximately the amount of the jackpot.by Den - General Competition Chat

Another wrong link on the Brand New Audi R8 Competition. This should take you there :-by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: My lucky morning - 8 years ago
Must be something in the air. I have received two prizes this morning. A large box of various fragrances and lotions, and a tea set with a silver plated tea caddy. Also received a call this morning to say I had won some wine and an email telling me I had won £200. I have had a fantastic couple of weeks with two £100 cash prizes as well as a Sekonda watch and a voucher for tea for two at the Ritz.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: Spam emails since joining CC - 8 years ago
I used to get loads of junk emails but most of them have an unsubscribe link on the bottom somewhere. I started clicking these links and now get very few of them. The trouble is you have to enter a lot of the competitions you have to sign up for these emails and newsletters but I find by unsubscribing on a daily basis I manage to keep them under control. As for the phishing ones I forward them onby Den - UK Forum
Re: DOES ANYBODY ACTUALLY WIN? - 8 years ago
I have been through a bad patch for a few months until last week when I won two prizes of £100 each and this week received an email to tell me I had won Afternoon tea at the Ritz and today received a Sekonda watch in the post. I do get a bit fed up when I go through the bad spells but it is certainly worth it when the prizes start coming in. Don't give upby Den - General Competition Chat
Re: LINKS - 8 years ago
The link to the Incredible culinary adventure in Australia is wrong. The following link takes you to the correct page :-by Den - General Competition Chat

The £50000 ITV competition has the wrong link. The following link should take you to the correct page.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: Take a Break - 8 years ago
Still no Take A Break but also no TV competitions lately with the big cash prizes and cars etc. We just seem to be getting less and less decent comps.by Den - UK Forum
Re: 'Our Competitions' - 8 years ago
Still no Star Shaker and Keyword comps. Have these been discontinued with no one bothering to tell us. It seems we have all been deserted as we get no answers to anything despite the previous promises.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: 'Our Competitions' - 8 years ago
What has happened to Star Shaker & Keyword comps today. I logged on to enter them this morning as usual and have just checked back again at 6pm and still nothing. Have they been and gone while I was not looking?by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: Incorrect answers - 8 years ago
Re: the Ralph Lauren designer bag competition I think the answer should be 1967 not 1939. 1939 is when he was born not when the company was established.by Den - General Competition Chat
Re: Quiz 24 May - 8 years ago
Sounds like you have gone for the same option as me. It was just a case of finding a name that matched the choices available.by Den - UK Forum
Re: Quiz 24 May - 8 years ago
I thought it was just me being a bit thick. Glad to know someone else is having trouble with this one.by Den - UK Forum
Re: Thank you - 9 years ago
Thanks April, Andy, Neil and everyone else I have bombarded with emails and telephone calls over the last four months. I finally received my December prize (with interest) after many telephone calls and emails. My original £5 garden centre voucher ended up as a £25 cheque which I received in the post today, so thanks very much.by Den - UK Forum
