Is there any rules

To the website domain name you use?

I think i signed up via freebiejeebies.org which is obviously not the official site.

Would I be able to purchase freeebiejeebies.co.uk as an example? is there any rules against it?

As long as it's an available domain, you have the right to purchase it (freebiejeebies.co.uk is already taken —it's the official one actually

)

But I think you don't have the right to claim that your website is the official one. (for example you mention that your website is not related to freebiejeebies.co.uk in t&c etc...)

Might want to ask FJ though if it's ok to use a domain similar to their company name.

It's just politeness, I have and a few others have too.

tommo45, your 10 free green competition may not be legal. You certainly need some Ts & Cs to cover yourself

And I assume they agreed?
Would it be better to e-mail them?
Or private message them on here?

Edit: @Suparuss

It was just an idea, i've put "coming soon" as I haven't ironed out the kinks in the idea yet.
