You order, put in mail, about iii weeks-4 weeks later yous receive your item - write a bank check. And then y'all receive a statement saying balance is due because you failed to make payments. I had this happen claiming the mail office claimed to have delivered pkgs inside 2-iv days of me mailing an society in. People this has to be a scam - they claim because I waited so long to brand a payment (same 24-hour interval as detail received!) All balances are due and payable. Beware.

I don't believe their statements that say if you don't club y'all tin can still be a winner. I take been playing PCH Sweepstakes for about x years now and can't afford to guild annihilation, nor take I won a damn thing. So I think they only pick the people who place orders to exist in the winner pool. I'm beginning to retrieve this is nix merely a scam!!!!

I've been a member since 2015 and have won x.00 dollars. Awarded in a check by mail. I was warned by all the warnings about the odds of winning a grand prize. Then I'1000 not expecting anything less than if I was playing the lotto. We play for the dreams, for the hopes, for the chances to alter our lives and the people we hold dear. But it's still never promised to us. I'grand shocked and blessed that I won x.00 dollars on playing games and watching ads, without me spending whatever money. And I do not expect much more.
The odds are against you lot for any winnings and they have the warnings everywhere. And so to get upset or pissed off because y'all don't win is pointless. As for the ads, how exercise you think they brand the money to pay the winners and as for the freezing problems information technology is their software or hardware trying to keep up with so many people trying to win a grand prize to support their dreams. Merely in the cease I do believe they have many winners and people's lives changed forever.

The games are standard, but it takes forever to load compared to any other site. I'm stuck watching total minute commercials that don't pertain to me, and it'southward the same one over and over... and over again. The extreme low chance of winning anything doesn't make it worth the fourth dimension and frustration.

Be VERY cautious about making purchases from PCH. Their prices are vastly inflated when compared to what comparable and identical items sell for when purchased from other sources such as Amazon or Walmart. Information technology is not uncommon for PCH to show an initial toll which is 10-25% higher than other sources AND then they add bogus shipping charges plus, in some cases, a "heavy detail" fee then their final price is 30-50% more than what a customer tin can observe online elsewhere.

My favorite token game is not working correctly. It is only giving 100 tokens per game. It should be 10 x the points score. No one will assistance. ___ "How Wonderful! Your Score: 140. 10xTokens Earned: 100. Play Once more."

I have been buying for a couple months. Everything I bought either didn't work or was trash. If you have to render anything, that's wrong, they don't refund aircraft. They brand money from shipping. So, anything I bought I could take bought at the Dollar Store and been happier. I will never buy from them over again. You have to pay to render, so what's the bother. It doesn't to return annihilation to them.

Ok. Here's the deal. You will not win playing games or entering sweepstakes on pch.com. It was not designed for that. It was designed to give you lot the fake hope of winning to keep yous playing the games on their site as long as they mayhap can. The webmaster tin so expect at the logs to get statistics to put infront of advertisers to get them to purchase commercial time and if you've always been to pch.com y'all know it'southward all about advert. Every folio is absolutely covered in animated advertisement and you become advertisement videos between games and in the instance of the slots you volition go an advertisement between every spin.
Pch.com more than than likely pulls in hundreds of millions of dollars a yr from this set up. Do people really win? I don't know. You don't know. All we know is that they say they pay out and there is a banner at the bottom of the page claiming that this person or that person won a 6, ten, or 20 dollar gift menu the terminal hr. It can take you 12 hours or more than some days to play all the games due to the repeated advertisements between games and what sucks fifty-fifty more than is at that place is no variety in the advertizing, I desire to observe the people in the Peel Chat video and punch all of them in the mouth since their commercial is played over and over and over and over again.

Then, I'chiliad ane of those PCH Presidential Preferred Top Customers, and I get multiple entries, from 3-ten entries per entry site. Today SIX entry screens froze during my attempts at entering. I have cleared my browsing histories and cookies, but it does not aid at all. This really pisses me off. That put me at losing out on almost xx entry numbers. What if one of them was a winner? It isn't my computer doing this, it'southward PCH'southward computer messing up. I've been entering since 1972, with zip to show for it. That's 47 years of HOPING I might win. What kind of fool am I?

I have used the playing of game to relieve the stress of all the emails I take intendance of. All was good til they did non like my Adblock. I do non work so the ads are useless on me. Another I know has Adblock and they are not bothered by them, I told them I maybe had been next to win and they wanted to thwart me. Not a good thing at all. I have gone to the tablet to continue to do PCH entries. The tablet is bounced out all the time and I need to re-enter and their system says I already nerveless any I entered in the outset identify. I hold PCH is no longer the identify to be. Simply takes time a lot of the states don't take to entertain the possibility of a win. It plain sucks.

This "company" is a SCAM. In that location's no if, ands or butts almost it. I know there'southward a lot of idiotic people on here who for some reason come flying to the defense of this scamming ** company with the typical "Only people who don't win annihilation talk bad near PCH." Well duh. No **, that's kinda what happens when a company claims to accept sweepstakes and gives abroad money when in fact it's all faux and ane big scam to get views on the spam so they can get money. It's not only almost not winning, that I could bargain with. (Although let's admit it. Spending years and countless time on PCH and never winning anything is annoying **.)
It's the fact that once you sign up with this company you're bombarded NONSTOP with spam emails. Their website is literally nothing just spam, you can't enter/practise annihilation without being forced to get through endless pages of spam commodity links, spam ads all over their site and don't get me started on the hellish spam emails I become nonstop from them. They're making millions if not billions off of usa and in return we don't become jack except a never ending supply of spam and lies.
I've been on PCH for years now then trust me when I say I have a pretty skillful noesis of how their site looks, how it operates and things like that. The fact that their whole site revolves effectually spam, the fact that one time you lot sign up with them and enter your first "sweepstakes" you're bombarded day in and twenty-four hour period out with spam emails and the fact that all these supposed "winners" of their contests they show on their website brand no sense and sound made up. (Someone with the name Tamar? Someone with some made upwardly stereotypical Indian name living in the deep southward? Multiple winners with the same name and same first letter of their last name being drawn at the same time or within a couple of days of each other?)
And the fact that they give out the location of each of these supposed winners (like come on at present, would any real person in their correct mind who just won thousands - millions of dollars want their name and location posted for the entire world to see? Not unless someone wanted to be robbed or harassed for coin I honestly cannot see a real person beingness okay with that, now a made up person I'm sure would be absurd with it.) PCH screams scam.
I've stupidly used PCH for years, put in countless time earning tokens, entering their contests and sweepstakes and have never won a unmarried affair. I'm one of the people who does these kinds of things because I need money and needing money to survive can really make yous desperate and brand you practise stupid things which is why I've been using their site for so long. Deep downward I always knew something was off almost their site but the fact that I desperately need money made me ignore it.
What made me snap so to speak was something that's been going on the past couple of days with their Prize Grab "instant win" game, I've played it easily thousands of times and always got tokens, yesterday and the day earlier yesterday I'one thousand playing and for the kickoff time it grabbed a money pocketbook but guess what? I didn't win jack, information technology grabbed the money handbag and just equally information technology was well-nigh to striking the top to show my reward it dropped and said "Woo Whoo you won 50 tokens."
(I know I'm not the only one who gets bellyaching ** with those cheesy ** congratulation letters you get... I'yard winning nothing but tokens from a online website something that's literally meaningless and not money - something I desperately need so don't ** congratulate me, congratulate me when I win money... which let'due south admit information technology you have a improve chance of Jesus Christ coming downwardly from the sky so yous practice of winning these scam artists contests.) That happened twice, yesterday and the day before yesterday simply today information technology went back to grabbing tokens. Once once again they only scream scam, even when y'all do what you need to win you still don't win...
Information technology'southward my honest conventionalities that only older people and/or rich people win lotteries and things like that, people who actually demand money for survival never win. Non likewise long agone in that location was a lotto that hit a billion dollars and what age do y'all think the person was who won it? 90 years sometime. Don't believe me? Go practice your research and you'll come across how many older and/or well off people win things. It's such a painful feeling when y'all put so much time, endeavor, money and hope into something but for information technology to be dashed and so you get that why carp feeling and want to give up, but at to the lowest degree with lottery tickets and things like that there's no shady BS going on, you either win or you don't but with PCH you lot never win, no one does except for PCH.
They make millions and billions of dollars off of all that spam they cram down our throats, they accept advantage of people who desperately need money people who spend hours of their time a day trying to win. PCH's website even looks like a spam site. I honestly accept no thought how or why this "company" is even allowed to proceed. They need to be shut down, preying on people who desperately need money for their survival, preying on hopes and dreams is the lowest form of scammer.
I and anyone else who have been preyed upon for years by the living definition of a scam that is PCH need to commencement a petition to get PCH shut downwards, people managed to get their "having to buy our junk to enter" tactic they used to practise shut down, at that place's countless show of PCH's scamming out there, 99.9% of their reviews are bad, and then I know getting them shut down is very possible. Hopefully anybody will start coming to their senses like I did to get this monster shut down.

I have been entering Publishers Immigration House for many years. Playing their games for tokens and to enter their deals like $7000.00 a week for life. I have been cheated time and time again, out of tokens. For case when you start enter the $7000.00 a week for life competition, it shows that you have won 10.000 tokens for the token lath. But then when it puts the number of tokens on the token board, it only shows chiliad points. So as you play more games during that fourth dimension, yous lose more tokens due to the fact you lot tin't get the games to play. This all comes up empty, showing y'all have played the games and you have not fifty-fifty seen some of the games.
Also when it shows that the entry has been confirmed it only shows 150 token points. That is one of the biggest, sorriest excuse for points. Too every time I redeem my tokens, I don't see a thing from it. Beginning to recall that they are very much a scammer. Yous enter and enter all the time, only what exercise you get. If I was to win the $7000.00 weekly for life it would really and truly be a phenomenon. They take sent me names of people that was suppose to have won in my state, only I accept not found a single ane of them.

Later on 26 years of entering PCH contests and ordering things, I received a phone call asking me my opinion. Later that call, all entries stopped; without any notification. When I asked about this, this is the response I received: "Nether an agreement between Publishers Clearing House and your State Attorney General, PCH is required to interview customers whose purchase activity with our visitor meets a certain criteria. Your account was identified every bit having met the criteria outlined in the agreement.

My mother has played their sweepstakes for almost 20-years and I grew upwards watching her return notice after discover multiple times every week. She has won nothing in all that time, not even one of their basic $100 winnings. She'south getting older and has felt so horrible about wasting her fourth dimension and "all those stamps" that I started playing the games under her proper noun hoping to win her even a gift card.
I spent all of my complimentary-time making daily visits to play everything available (while also not winning any of their 'instant wins'). I finally thought I'd saved upwardly enough and for a month I've used my nearly 70-million tokens on their rewards. I've put in thousands of entries on single items on a weekly basis. This calendar week I finally used every single token I had collected and I wasn't even able to win her a $20 McDonald's gift card. I haven't sat down and calculated the odds of this but I'm rather positive that it's close to nearly impossible and I'm done with them.
In reality those games are mainly there to generate ad revenue (and seeing as how in that location is at least 1 ad popping up every single fourth dimension you practise annihilation - that'due south a LOT of money) and to get people to buy their overpriced catalog items (which she has too done). They feed off the desperation of people like my mom who see winning equally their merely ways to financial stability. Rather than doing something rational and making upwardly a dozen smaller but every bit meaningful prizes they dump the winnings on one major winner, in what is a brilliant motility to make people more competitive. Save yourself the headache and don't even get started.

No, you do not have to purchase a thing to win.

I reviewed several items, I clicked one item I was because but backed out of it before giving my method of payment. PCH sent it to me anyhow, charging it to my credit carte du jour. THAT's FRAUD! The detail is nigh twice what I would have paid at the grocery store. I tried contacting PCH without success. I finally sent the voucher back with a note, but they haven't responded. I volition NEVER play their games again. Most of their trade is low quality junk anyway. Why don't they spread the wealth anyway, instead of giving it all to ane person? I later bought a paperback book "Wagging Tails in Sky" because I recently lost my domestic dog. When I received it, It's going to price me $xviii.94 including S/H & revenue enhancement. Target & WalMart take it for $nine.70. They're ripping you off, America. It'south time to wake up!

I simply want to say I've read a lot of your reviews and I can understand people beingness upset over money they've spent and lost throughout the years, merely on that notation in Publishers Immigration House's defence force if you're one of those people like me who actually takes the time to read the small print before just sending off my hard earned money to everything. They conspicuously state buying things from them does not increase your odds of winning. Your odds are only the same as someone like me who never purchases anything. I just submit for my chance to win, take a few surveys and go on virtually my day. I know the odds of me winning will probably never happen, but it's worth a shot to effort. If you are tired of wasting your money then terminate sending information technology. Y'all're non doing yourself any good. Hope this helps someone out there.

PCH never used to be like this. Years agone I could enter without buying something. Now they SAY you can still win but you can't enter the competition without making a purchase. So I made a buy thinking, okay I'm entered. Not And so! I received email after e-mail telling me I had 1 more than step to but find I'1000 taken to a bunch of magazine subscriptions and I HAVE to pick one to be entered in the sweepstakes. I idea I'd give it 1 last chance and pick a subscription. Yet NO GOOD! They kept bravado up my inbox wanting me to buy junk that I don't need.
I feel that it'due south and so dishonest and dingy for them to be stringing people along and preying on us past taking what little coin some of us have while nosotros dream of maybe hitting it big even though we know how very slim the odds are. EXTREMELY slim. Getting struck past a meteorite would be more probable to happen. It used to exist fun to enter the sweepstakes and dream. Don't bother fifty-fifty trying now. They took that away.

This week of February 18th to the 25th PCH has gotten EXTREMELY UNETHICAL by not allowing clients to get through the game cycle and thus compete for the big prizes. These SK-2 ads are 48 seconds and are played in betwixt each game. Considering there are 100's of games to consummate before an entry is considered valid... the fourth dimension information technology now takes went from 1 hour or 1.5 hours to over 4 hours with a VERY fast internet connectedness and computer. They suck... They've started this last week past having some pop upwardly that read "I agree PCH uses ads"... Well aforementioned manipulative/coercive programming was involved...

My problem is non that I haven't won annihilation with token. With so many people involved, one's chances of winning annihilation is slim. My problem is with the changes PCH has made in the past 4 or five months and, starting within the past month, terribly disappointed and frustrated with the company. I accept ordered items from their long lists over the past year. I call up my beginning buy were bath mats that I really like. Aureate Coast microfiber bath mats. The tag on the mats state they were fabricated in China, how to wash them, do not put in dryer, etc…but there's a warning as well: Combustible: (FAILED U.S. DEPT. OF COMMERCE STD., FF2-lxx) SHOULD Non BE USED Most SOURCE OF IGNITION. No i smokes in my house, just at that place may be a problem for those who similar to um…sit and fume a cigarette.
More recently is the problem with advertising. It'due south why I'm ready to quit PCH. To be off-white, I empathize that it'south the advertisement that helps pay the winners of the large monetary prizes. Yes, what the players purchase too. I have ad blocking software on my figurer. It seems to take stopped working on PCH games. Information technology used to be that I would have to pause the ad blocking on certain games and I didn't mind. Most of the ads were short. Several months agone, I was unable to get onto sure games if the advertisement blocking software was in employ. Now, fifty-fifty with the blocking ON, the video ads are in that location. It takes time (5 to xv 2d) for the ad to 'load' before the game or carte. The advertising itself can exist anywhere from fourteen to sixty seconds.
Then, it takes time for the game itself to load. If you're playing KENO, a timed game of 5 sets of 4 cards each, you lose time - anywhere from xxx to 75 seconds for each ad. And now, you lot don't become to play those last 2,3, or 4 cards. The ads are distracting…and other favored statements. Today, I saw the aforementioned 2 ads. One was 35 to 40 seconds and the other was 55 to 75 seconds. The timing includes the advertizement 'load', video advertizement, and game setup. I tried playing several dissimilar games. The same 2 ads were there. I'chiliad never going to win anything. I did enjoy some of the games that required a quick eye and click on the mouse. Today I got distracted and frustrated with the same long ads. Information technology's time to end. I have other things I could do – and should be doing – with my time.
