Anyone else having trouble entering the Best competition entries, I’ve tried a multitude of address solutions, thus far, I have failed to enter for 3 weeks now.
Norma
I am, too. I usually use the hearstmagazines.co.uk link but it doesn’t seem to work. Just gave up in the end 🙁
I often have a problem with entering Best comps – the address should be
http://www.hearstmagazines.co.uk/bestcross4025 but it comes up Issue 53!
I’ll keep trying!
How strange when I click on the link it brings up issue 40 . Hope you manage to enter the comp
Sorry It was Best that was problematic. I was okay with Bella.https://www.bellamagazine.co.uk/competitions/
I entered one today and it was fine, not had a problem previously. Hope you manage to get it to work.
Hi all

Hi Colin
Hope you are well, beat me to it again…..
I got the same answers as yourself and Caroline.
I really wish that Bella would decide if its a single weekly mag, or a double mag all the time. I wouldn’t mind, but most of the double mags are just (or seem to be) the same articles on weight, dress sense, recipes or is that just my way of looking at it ?’
Had my moan now, good luck everyone

HI i have received an email from Best saying i have won one of their crossword competitions. However it is asking for bank/or paypal details. Can anyone confirm this is the way they pay the prize or is it a spam email
Thanks for any advice
Hi Phyllis
Yes this is the way they pay out, I had to do it in June when I won a competition with them……then they paid it straight into the bank, if I remember rightly.
I did check it out with my daughter, who is much more computer savvy than I am ! Got to be so careful with all the scams around.
Only just seen your message, so sorry for the delay in answering.
Well done on the win, spend it on something nice for yourself

Was there no publication for Waitrose Weekend for 28th August?
Waitrose don’t usually produce a magazine when it’s a holiday
It doesn’t normally come out until Wednesday- but it says next issue 4th September. Probably none this week due to the Bank holiday weekend.
BEST MAG 35
ANSWER = VINCE CABLE
GOOD LUCK

I have answers for Prima closing 20th Aug & 20th Sept. I always wait until near the closing date. They have closed down competitions. Totally ridiculous they could have not issued any more competitions and run the present ones to the expiry date.
I think this is the link for August Prima https://hearstdigital.wufoo.com/forms/m17i56091ulhrk4/
This is the link for the September https://hearstdigital.wufoo.com/forms/m1snl5aw1m9yyvb/
Thank you so much Roger. I had missed that and was trying to go via the website. My sister gets the magazine. I just grab it for the Comps or she tells me the answers if she has done them, so had no clue this was happening.
Prima has closed in the dailys too we were warned of this by giveaway treasures they finished end of July.
