    I quit them when I started getting marketing calls. Also wonder if anyone wins on FPD.ie?

    Has anyone else stopped receiving replies from 50400? Contacted Vodafone about it and they weren't any help! Wondering if my entries are still getting through.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 124 ✭✭ladymary


    I entered 2 comps on 50400 last night and got a reply for both.

    Ya used to have great luck on the text comps but not had any win in ages, seems to be fewer comps in general and prob more people doing them..

    Wow amazing! I chose Crystal Palace too so I guess that means I didn't win this week!

    Has anyone been able to figure out how to get responses again from 50400. I used to get the for every competition. They just stopped on Saturday, Vodafone have been no help with trying to fix it. Not sure where to go next?

    I am with Three and I get replies from 50400 comps


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 124 ✭✭ladymary


    Just text the latest comp text EXPERIENCE to 50400 and got this reply "Thanks we have received your football entry! All winners will be notified at the end of the promotion".

    I know a lot of people get replies regardless of network. I was getting replies untill last week. I was just wondering if anyone managed to fix not getting replies as I know a few people have had this issue

    As was mentioned before, I'm wondering if I should post pay to enter competitions?
    Like the raffles to win a house, car, cow etc. Keep on the main thread, or start a new thread for pay to enter?

    I know there are a couple of places like lottery comps, but I'm not going to list them as it's like gambling.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,522 ✭✭✭Gormal


    I think Twitter is one of the best social platforms to try win competitions. You can search for specific things you want to win

    Are you finding less now than before, with the new twitter look... I'm finding less this year than last year.

    I think there are less competitons in general. There's definitely less on Twitter. They might have moved to insta but I haven't figured out how to find competitions on insta

    I wouldn't bother really, don't mind the text ones from RTE etc but the charity house raffles are getting really common now and they're not really competitions, they're really expensive too.

    Nothing against people looking for them and entering themselves, but they're not the main idea of the thread. Probably not enough either to open a new thread.

    Purchase a product to enter is also fine in my opinion, allows people to decide themselves.

    Something like the St James Hospital car raffle to me is a grey area - €5 a ticket for a charity. Wouldn't be entering these prolifically but if I was in the shop I would buy tickets anyway.

    Are people entering via log in or via FB messenger?

    I’m entering with FB messenger. I hope I’m not wasting my time.

    Which day did they tell you you'd won?

    I know the weeks run Monday -> Sunday, but curious as to when the winners are told...
