IT TAKES HOURS TO ENTER AND COMPLETE ALL THE GAMES. EVERY GAME HAS WAY TO MANY SPONSOR ADVERTISEMENTS. YOU NEVER HEAR OF PEOPLE WINNING THE HOUSE, THE CAR, THE SPA, NOT A THING. NO MATER HOW MANY TOKENS YOU EARN, YOU DON'T WIN ANYTHING. I REMEMBER ONE WINNER STATED THAT SHE ONLY PLAYED THE GAMES ONE TIME AND WAS A BIG WINNER, THAT'S NOT LUCK WHEN SOME OF US PLAY EVERYDAY. I'M STARTING TO HAVE SECOND THOUGHTS MYSELF ABOUT PCH GAMES. I HAVE BEEN PLAYING FOR YEARS. LET'S ALL BE REAL. WITH TODAYS ECONOMY WHAT IS A 5,10 AND TWENTY DOLLAR GIVE AWAY...
Twice was sent emails stating i won joke scam that is all it is i have contacted att. Generals office they called sending said they would send an investigator out to talk with me we will see
I've been playing everyday. Until one day, for the past week or two, your app froze up & keeps saying error! Can't play if the app won't download correctly! UGH
Ive been playing for 6 years from 7:a.m in the morning till 10:00 PM at night. Hund reds of thousands of searches and a spent a lot of money on items you can buy at a Dollar store. You won't get any item for under $25.00 so you can rack up a lot money in 2 months of playing series of $5,000 dollar per week Super prizes. My last bill was $700.00 and my bill now is $800.00. My main gripe is they lead you on thinking you are winning and they already know you did not win.Waste of time and money. I guess I was too desperate to keep playing after losing my home and car. Don't let desperation cloud your judgement. The whole scheme is really brilliant and on prize day you can almost hear them saying "Got Ya" People do not need to partake in these schemes desperate or not. My whole family was always mad at me and called me a fool so I set out to prove them wrong. I feel like such a fool. Nobody is ever going to drive up to your house and hand you a check for $1,000,000. Or even $5.00. The game cannot be won. If someone wins it might be one time a year and they still give you payments on anything you win so I've read from other customers. When they are sending you a message on prize day telling you just wait and see if its You, they already know it is not you. That's better left unsaid instead of getting your hopes up. All is a big rip off. Play your state lottery.
I got their "free" gift that I paid only $5 for shipping it was a crap set of kitchen towels you can buy at the dollar store for a buck quit trying to rip us off
American Citizens! Quit dreaming that you are going to be the 1 person in TEN MILLION to have Publisher's Clearing House knock on your door and give you a barrel of money! PCH has now become the Scammer's Playground, and 99% of you are too STUPID to know you are getting took! REMEMBER the old saying: "If it's TOO good tone TRUE, ITS NOT TRUE!". PCH contacts you IN PERSON, UNEXPECTEDLY! NOT BY PHONE! WAKE UP! Don't be a MORON! PCH is now nothing but a nuisance! Quit sitting around in your underwear and bunny slippers waiting for the doorbell to ring! Don't feed this beast! Toss all the crap they send you, and go make an honest dollar! PCH is a SOCIETAL MORIAH! Kill it by Not feeding it with responses and empty Hope!
I have the play and win app. In the past 2 years I've won three times ($250 twice and a$5 Gift Card for Amazon). I have over 60million tokens and the only thing they're good for is trying to win prizes that we should be able to buy with the tokens instead. I have been playing PCH since the late 80's (through the mail) and I won't quit now maybe my turn to win is coming up soon. I'm grateful for the $505 winnings cause some people haven't won anything yet. Well good luck to all who will continue to play the game and for those of you who quit THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for giving me better odds of winning!
I have ordered few items hoping to use but none of them were of any good quality. Same things I can get it for less than half price in Chinese stores.
VOLTAGE TESTER, ICE CUBE TRAY 25.00 cheap plastic, PET HAIR CLEANING GLOVE 19.00 only few hairs stick, ICE TRAY WITH STORAGE BIN 21.00 cheap plastic not BPA free. All products made cheaply in China. The shipping cost kills it too. I need to return everything. I will never buy any products from them in hopes to win to support cheap products from China.
I wish I had researched PCH's merchandise before I purchased. Now I see why it only has 2 stars. I ordered a ceiling fan cleaning brush for $9.95. What I received was a cheap piece of crap. In addition to the cost of the product, it also TAXED the shipping charge! So, I ended up being charged $17.65 for a $9.95 item! If you're smart, DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM PUBLISHERS CLEARING HOUSE (PCH). Buy from ANY OTHER source.
I am approaching the final straw with PCH. The Instacart ad which is 30 seconds without a skip plays continuously. If I press the reload icon, the ad may reappear or I have to wait the remainder of the 30 seconds to get to the next game. I have written PCH 5 times about this. When I respond to their surveys (if not a positive response from me), there is an error notice so they only accept positive responses. This does not reflect well on PCH. One has to think-what else is not legitimate.
I love playing the games when the ad situation is not a problem. I really don't expect to win more than the $10 or $5 that comes my way once a year. I am embarrassed to say how many tokens I have earned over the years.
What puzzles me is the lack of $5,000/$$7,000 a week winners announced each 3 month period.
There is usually the one million dollar winner for that period.
I am also embarrassed to say how many of their items I have purchased. Loved the cotton nightgowns which they no longer offer. However, the rest is junk and expensive-way over what one would spend at Walmart or a discount store.
Bet they have a lot of retired folks like me who spend time on PCH. Remember that stamps are now 55 cents. PCH has improved its ads over the last five years. Some of the stupid ads ran for 2 minutes and there was no skip. Ah, but that improvement isn't enough. Guess it's back to gardening, birdwatching, books, puzzles, and good neighbors. Well, everything in moderation.
I fault myself for even getting involved with such a scam as this. I was looking for a unique gift, found something I could settle with through PCH. I needed several of these items for a project I was developing. So I played PCH game, ordering items as needed. The thing is, I always paid in full when ordering and added $6 for shipping. Because I began to always receive additional fees I am now looking at a large bill. I have been in numerous discussion with PCH trying to figure this out unsuccessfully. Has anyone ever faced this problem? And if so, what was the solution? There are many complaints about this company. I would like to explore the options of a class action law suit. Any suggestions in this area will be considered.To add insult to injury, most of the items ordered were cheap plastic, cracking or breaking after the first use. I even ordered some metal bowls that had plastic covers. The covers were cracked along the edges from the opening of the package. Not happy with this company at all.
I love playing the games especially the token toss and the red door memory game lol. Whether I win or lose, it's all good. Thanks for making my days a little better PCH
I have been a member of pch since 2011 really before that I use to get a lot of mail and emails but for at least 6 or 8 months nothing. What happened?
How is it possible that I've played for many years but never been able to win any money at all! I've gotten over 100 million tokens but not a cent in money! Why?
I feel so, so sad that in this time in history a company as large as PCH does such HORRIBLE, HURTFUL things to other people... human beings as they have done both to the people who have been desperately waiting and trying to win what seems to be a BOGUS SCAM. I am one of those people who it has hurt... to the point of tears, thinking that "everything is going to be OK" How do you sleep at night or kiss your spouse and children? How very COLD AND HURTFUL!
Most of the time the site is having problems or not working, I have been putting up with this for at least 40 years. Still love to play games. In 40 years I have only won a $10 gift card on amazon
Try to register they say no purchase necessary but I keep getting the run around on the website so I purchased something thinking that was my final step that's what they told me then I keep getting emails and mailing circulars saying I have one more step I call customer service number and this guy could not help me said oh you can call and register for the prize I told him no thank you take me off your list this is nothing but a scam and a run around I'm not buying no more crap from you all
Every time i go through all orders ti make my entries, something I did not order appears in the purchased cart. It is very important to check it or you find yourself having to through much bs to REMOVE IT! I am seriously thinking if ending my PCH MADNESS IF 30 SOMETHING YEARS and start a new year without my addiction to something nothing more than a waste of life!
Ok this may have been long ago but I got the message today remember in the comments on the Google play app you told me to go *******@app *******@pchmail.com I was a winner of the 100$ amazon gift card but I fegard out what was wrong I was not signed into a pch account so can you plz give me the money so I can buy something for Christmas
I've been a pch member for almost 10 years now. I've never won a single dime but yet they keep claiming everyone else wins. Have you ever met anyone that won anything from PCH? I haven't
Answer: Probably but we keep playing as the games do give us something to do. Wouldn't bet on a big win however.
Answer: Am I still in the running for PCH's $7,000.00 a week win Thanks hoping for good news. My computer was down for two days. Does this disqualify me
Answer: I know they keep changing the dates for winning and they say no purchase needed until the end with a notice to buy something and you will be on their list they should be accounted for to better business bureau and all the items are made in china this company must be owned by china I'm done with them
Answer: Oh this is big time scam. Like I said in my review we put to much time into this wack company that when see anything about money we think it's them. Nobody ever wins there special early look prizes unless it's a guaranteed giveaway.
Answer: Well, and just as I expected, the October 23 "special early look" did NOT result in the "mega prize" being awarded. Surprise, surprise! I saw that they immediately started advertising on TV their next "mega prize" (what is it now? $5000 a week for life? Bet they don't award that one, either!) Just a scam to drum up sales to weak-minded people who actually think they have a snowball's chance in you-know-where to win anything at odds of almost 2 billion to one. A total fraud!
Answer: I didn't know this but it makes sense as there is nothing to it but the same thing day after day. PCH has gone downhill with games, lately, as even the daily puzzles, now, just drag and are hard to move the pieces. Too many puzzles and probably too many people playing, Also same thing, every day and are only for fun to kill time with. Maybe, now, they are just not monitoring the sites to see their problems. Bingo, no great loss.
