Hi, Can anyone please confirm that they have WON ANYTHING from the Entries into Competitions on this site and How are the Winners (if any) informed of their WINS ??

I was just wondering the same thing myself! I've never won although we entered a competition for a holiday to Tenerife a week ago and they were straight on the phone to hubby. But .... we have to get our own flights, and pay a £95 arrangement fee. This was for 1 week to take any time in the next 12 months inc school hols - have 3 places in Los Cristianos / 1 in Playa de Las Americas to choose from. 5 star rating. The chap left his phone number (in Tenerife) if we changed out mind. Not sure if this was considered a competition win or not as it's not exactly free! It was for family of 4 too by the way. What would you say?
What i'd like to know is 'CLOSING DATE'.

Don't go for the con holiday!

I've never won anything from this site, but I guess they get a lot of entries. They notify winners by email, don't they? I think it says on the winners page.

I must have erntered something like 50-60 competitions as I do on a regular basis BUT have never won anything ...so far. I was wondering if this is all to make us leave our details with them for their database to enable them to CON us with the offers like Soosie's holidays above !! Any comments !!

I have entered lot of competitions from this site and if u look up the web site for competitions uk I have entered thousands more with out a win from any! If you look at the winners board for competitions uk the same name appears over and over again, some one is very lucky or is it all a con.

If you enter competitions from reputable companies/newspapers/websites and check the terms and conditions, they shouldn't be a con. But many competitions have so many entries that your chance of winning is tiny.

The UKTV Style website had a competition & survey recently and they had something like 8,000 entries. The UKTV Style Gardens competitions could have similar numbers. But it only takes a few seconds to enter so I'll keep entering!

For the best chance of winning try competitions in local newspapers, I've won loads of prizes from them.

Hi everyone,
Please don't give up entering our competitions - they're not a con and people do win really! On this site, we get between 4,000 and 8,000 entries for each competition, so the odds are good. You can see who has won what in our feature 'Lucky Strike' in the Competitions zone, which we update regularly.
Good luck!
Thanks

don't be such bad loosers,just keep trying to win something like the rest of us

I think that for some inexplicable reason UKTVStyleGardens competitions escape their net but if you want to see competitions and real winners try the newsgroup uk.rec.competitions.

Possibly 80 new competitions a day! Even I have won (once)

Is that one of those con sites? 80 competitions a day and only winning once doesn't sound that great either.
