Q:
What does FAQ stand for?
A:
FAQ stands for Frequently Asked Question - You should check the FAQ first before asking anyone else, because hopefully it will contain the answers you are looking for.

A:
Yes, there are three.

Q:
How do I join the competition?
A:
1. Select “Register” on the Home page.
2. Fill in the required details - please make sure your email address is correct.
3. You will be sent a confirmation email with your Tipper ID.

Q:
I’ve joined the competition, but haven’t received an email.
A:
This is most likely because of one of two things.
1. When you joined the competition you were asked for your email address so what we could email you an initial password. If you haven’t received the email, it’s most likely you typed your email address incorrectly. Join again and be very careful with your typing! Don’t worry if your name appears twice in the Competition Ladder – We’ll remove the incorrect one within a couple of weeks.
2. Your email server could be having a bad day. We send the email as soon as you join, but sometimes there can be a (lengthy) delay before an email is delivered.

Q:
I’ve forgotten my password? Help!
A:
1. Go to “Login” on the Home page.
2. Select “Forgotten your Password?” link halfway down the page.
