Competition FAQs
Ready to win? This section is dedicated to answering all your questions about entering our prize draws and giveaways. From how to enter to the secrets of winning, we’ve got you covered.
Are the competitions listed on your site genuinely free to enter?
Yes. We specialize in finding and listing free-to-enter competitions from trusted brands and companies. You will never be asked for your credit card details or bank information to enter a prize draw you find on our site.
What is the secret to winning competitions?
Winning is all about consistency and playing the numbers game! We list a huge variety of UK prize draws, so the more you enter, the higher your chances of winning. Our top tip is to check the site regularly for new competitions and to read the rules carefully.
Why do Like Wow give away prizes?
We’ve always believed that sharing the luck of winning is one of the best parts of the freebies and competitions community. Winning a prize, no matter how big or small, feels great! By running our own exclusive competitions, we get to share that joy with you, giving our valued users an even better chance to win and experience the thrill of a prize arriving at their door.
How are winners chosen?
The winner is chosen directly by the company running the competition, usually at random using a verified process. We do not have any control over the winner selection process for third-party competitions.
For our own exclusive competitions, we choose the winner at random using a trusted, verifiably fair method, such as a random number generator. This ensures every entry has an equal and genuine chance of winning.
How will I be notified if I win a prize?
The company running the competition will contact you directly via the details you provided upon entry, such as email or phone. If you win one of our exclusive competitions, we will contact you personally to arrange delivery.
Do I have to pay tax on my winnings?
No. In the UK, personal winnings from competitions and gambling are not subject to tax. You can enjoy your prize without worrying about paying a portion to HMRC.
Why do companies give away such high-value prizes?
Companies use giveaways as a powerful marketing tool. Competitions help them build brand awareness, launch new products, and grow their social media following or email lists. It’s a win-win: they get a bigger audience, and you get a chance to win something amazing for free.
Can I enter a competition more than once?
The rules vary for each competition. Some prize draws allow for multiple entries (e.g., daily entries), while others are limited to one entry per person. We always recommend checking the individual competition’s terms and conditions.
How long does it take for a prize to arrive?
If you win one of our exclusive competitions, we aim to post out prizes within 7-10 days. Delivery times for other prizes can vary depending on the company. Rest assured, if you’ve been notified that you’ve won, your prize is on its way!
Are social media competitions a scam?
No, many social media competitions are legitimate. We only list competitions from trusted, official social media accounts. Always be cautious of fake profiles that ask you for money or personal details to claim a prize you’ve “won.”
What if I am asked for bank details to claim a prize?
This is a huge red flag and is almost certainly a scam. You should never be asked for any financial information to claim a prize you have won in a free competition. Report and block the sender immediately.
Freebie FAQs
Here to claim some free stuff? This section is designed to answer all your questions about getting freebies. We’ll tell you how to claim them, what to expect, and why companies give away free samples.
Are the freebies on your site genuinely free?
Yes. We manually test every freebie we list to ensure there are no hidden costs. While a few offers may ask for a small postage and packaging fee, this is always clearly stated on the offer page.
Why do companies give away free products?
Companies give away free products and samples as a form of marketing. They hope that by letting you “try before you buy,” you will love the product and become a loyal, paying customer in the future.
How do I claim a freebie?
It’s simple. When you find a freebie you like, just click on the link to be taken to the company’s official website. Follow their instructions, which usually involve filling out a short form with your name and address, and then wait for the freebie to arrive in the post.
How long does it take for freebies to arrive?
Delivery times can vary. While some freebies may arrive within a week, others can take several weeks, as companies often send them out in large batches. Please be patient, as the freebie will typically arrive as promised by the company.
Will I get spam emails if I sign up for freebies?
To avoid getting unwanted emails, we recommend looking for an “opt-out” checkbox on the forms you fill in. You might also want to set up a dedicated “freebie” email address to keep your main inbox free of marketing emails.
Why is a freebie listed as "out of stock"?
Freebies are often released as part of a limited-time marketing campaign and are incredibly popular! They can run out of stock very quickly due to high demand. We always aim to list the newest freebies as soon as they become available.
Can I get freebies delivered outside the UK?
Most of the freebies we list are from UK-based companies and are only available to residents of the United Kingdom. If an offer is open to other countries, it will be stated in the terms and conditions.
What kind of freebies can I expect to find?
You can expect to find a wide variety of freebies, from food and drink samples to free beauty products, magazines, vouchers, and more. We categorize our listings to make it easy to find what you’re looking for.
What is the best way to get freebies by post?
The best way to get freebies by post is to visit our site regularly and be quick to claim the latest offers. The most popular freebies are often limited and run out quickly.
Do I need to provide my phone number for freebies?
No, most freebies only require an email address and a postal address for delivery. If an offer asks for a phone number and you are not comfortable providing it, we recommend skipping that offer.
