A pop-up 9/16 claimed I was the VIP Grand Prize Winner of $10K. 12 hours later, PCH stated that MY win was a "MISTAKE" because THEY had posted my name in the announcement rather than a MAN'S across the country. I took a digital picture of the pop-up of my win and I am going to call for an investigation of several of their selection criteria. I want my prize check! UPDATE: After urging everyone to contact their State Attorney Generals regarding this "mistake," I have pinned PCH's ears to the wall on the Customer Service Blog. I have now been BLOCKED from the blog for a few days now. Read the "post" from a "Jason Keeton" from Decatur AL... I think it is a TROLL post that immediately popped up, after I was blocked, to taunt/insult me. Read this over-the-top drivel and tell me what you think! Thanks!

I put 91 million tokens in one day, that I had saved and put it towards the $400.00 for the patio set. Now seriously, how many others went for that prize? I did not win

Don't be Conned
February 24, 2022

Its a legal Con but a con muddled in all the gray areas with the biggest suckers being #1 the elderly and # 2 those who believe they have a chance to win perhaps one in the same. Try 2.4 Billion to one of winning something with the a company that believes if they throw enough $#*! against the wall something will stick. Consider this; Winning Power ball or Mega millions Odds are somewhere short of 345 Million to one. Wheres that leave those who believe they will win with PCH.
When you don't buy anything their emails become increasingly aggressive almost laughable if you have zero desire to order any Foreign Junk. After 35 years of competing buying and hoping and being labeld the world's biggest loser my approach has changed to actually get enjoyment less ordering anything and actually get a laugh on how they get desperate for a sale, How they challenge your credibility and the biggest laugh is when they write that you haven't ordered anything in 365 days. " C'mon, do us a favor and order something"! In 35 years you haven't done me any favors. I wonder if they know how condescending that sounds to those who haven't won so much as a Pencil. I laugh and have decided to never order another thing testing their pitch that you don't have to order to win. There is little difference. You order they win you lose. You don't order you have a few more dollars in your pocket and still lose. 2.4 Billion to one. Say it again. There are better chances of you getting struck by lightening…. 85 times. Wake up to the scam

I should of known, I bought a decorative pocket knife from PCH. Online it looked great and came with a wooden storage box. I just received the Eagle pocket knife and what a piece of garbage. The box is the best thing about it, there is a gap in the handle and the blade doesn't close correctly and the two screws in the handle are at and above surface. 20 dollars down the toilet. I collect unusual pocket knifes and thought this one would be something to add; boy was I wrong. MY ADVICE - - - DON'T BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY

I have ordered items from PCH. Some of the items are fine, but must of them are very low quality. Most are imports from China. I am beginning to think that the sweepstakes is a promotional scam.

Several times I received duplicates of a previous order. I have also had added items called a gift. The gift item is added to my original purchase which increases my bill.

At the top of an email is written "An order is required to enter sweepstakes"
At the bottom of the SAME email "No purchase necessary to enter sweepstakes"
In my books WHAT'LL IT BE? I'm sending NO MONEY,
I'm making NO ORDER to a company that can't even keep their story straight.
REALLY PCH?

FRAUD
October 5, 2019

Anybody that would advertise for VEGASWORLD is a FRAUD. Please go to VegasWorld.com and read all the complaints. This is due to the fact that PCH advertised this game. So if you back a FRAUD PCH what are you capable of?

Confirmed when you play. The next day you get a message that if you don't search, play games ect. You loose the entry's? I've never entered anything that takes away a confirmed entry. How is it "confirmed" if they can take it away? I always thought once you enter a sweepstakes, you are entered. Period! The other thing I don't understand and I've tried to ask PCH (No response) is, they have a rule only 1 entry per day into the $5 grand a week for life sweepstakes. (Unless u download a Pch game) yet they offer and confirm a unlimited number of those everyday per person? Like the blackjack game... U can use tokens at the end of that game to (buy?) Up to 5 entry's? And that's the next to last game in the lineup. Why keep offering if they aren't valid? What do they do with all the entry's that don't count? Who decides which 1's stay and which ones go? Why don't they respond to questions? Even frequently asked questions? I've read their "frequently asked questions" none of them have any depth. They are all so non- specific. Where is the big prize winners list? Another question that isn't on the FAQ list. I tend to think that question would be asked more than any other. More transparency would be a good thing, wouldn't it?

This is just a scam it's just a insurance trick the only way they let you confirm your entry is to fill out a quote for insurance that call and fill your email with garbage.

Fun and you can win!
October 20, 2017

I keep playing and win lots of tokens, just having fun! I redeemed some of my tokens and I won $250. So this does work, odds are long, but they are real.

DONT GIVE THEM YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS. I was dumb enough to enter my email address on one of the PCH giveaways - and since then I am bombarded with SPAM. In the 8 years I have had my gmail account, I have never had Spam in my InBox. Since giving PCH my email address, I get spam every day now.
DO NOT let them get their hands on your EMAIL address.
