Fair play Rev Comps. Just had my postcard for the lambo & RR processed. Wasn’t expecting that to be honest as it was nearly sold out & they probably didn’t need to process postcards for it. Top marks. DCG & 7 days take note.

(And yes I have purchased two more tickets through the paid route for those that aren’t a fan of the postcard entries)
Had the same but expected that to be the case.

Waiting to see if they accept on the M4 which is much lower odds and higher price...

Not even going to attempt an entry on the £60 RS5 next week as seems a waste of a stamp

I had one processed on the M4, I sent that because I’d bought max tickets on the big prize. I only use Rev Comps or DCG but Rev Comps have proven (to me anyway) that they are definitely the most trustworthy company so I’ll be sticking with them only from now on.

M4 has been processed now so pleasantly surprised and certainly helps with their credibility. I expect it would sell out with paid tickets if they left it to run so fair play

I’ve also got the M4 one as well. Top marks to the boys at Rev Comps!

Two cars caught my eye this week, both on DCG. R34 GTR and a Mk2 Focus RS in Green. Do they always do cash alternatives? No mention on these two although I'd take the car for sure.

Yea they would offer you a cash alternative if you didn't want the car.
I like that Focus RS too, always said I'd have one.but haven't yet.

Good luck bro I always imagine that day when the phone call comes, I'll probably be on the toilet or something, "an M4, oh really sh*tting hell" biggrin

I've been testing the postal auto draws. Sent in plenty of time, 10% success rate. Odd one today though... Had sent in three postals for auto draws, in lots of time. One processed, and for one I definitely didn't send a postal for... Very strange! confused

And also, I've bought far more auto draws then I've sent in postals for! Was an experiment, and with a 10% success rate, it's quite disappointing.

Yeah ive never had much success with the autodraws, one guy above said you have to send them day after they come up so I think theres less chance of them being processed, I only do the main draws personally as majority get processed.

Yeah zero success on the auto draws for me. But that’s ok, they’ve been really good at processing pretty much all of the ones I’ve sent in for the main live draws so I’m not complaining!

DCG not processing bugger all lately. Dumped thousands into them over the years, and the fact they can't be arsed to process a postal is a bit much.

Will move my spend to Revcomps from now on.
Very disappointing as I’ve probably spent thousands there as all my favourite cars turn up, but they really are showing bad form by not processing postals as is their obligation

I'm fairly sure they are all as inconsistent as each other, the fact rev process none for auto draws which there is loads, is agaisnt their obligation also, plus only accepting 1 postal entry.

I imagine DCG and 7 days process far more as people will be sending in hundreds not one or two due to the lower price and higher ticket cap.

So, just enter on the site you like the cars on the most and move on 😅

There’s inconsistency and not processing any at all as seems to be the case with dcg,these sites only exist because they offer free postal entries without that they would not be allowed to operate

That makes no sense, why would someone send in hundreds of postcards costing around £1.50 each for 99p draws?

Exactly, that's why I gave up on DCG, odds are as crap as 7days now.

After this DCG ended up processing and my first postal to rev comps ended up not being.

Looks like i'm sticking with DCG!
