Publishers Clearing House (PCH)

Trying to win money from here is very hard. So you are just better off not bothering trying to win when the odds of winning are against you. Publishers Clearing House is either a scam if it is real it is impossible to win any prizes or money. They need to stop giving people false hope. I don't know anyone who was one the Publishers Clearing House. So I am not convinced that I could win. My entire life I have never see Publishers Clearing House people with the big check walking down the sidewalk in any of the neighborhoods that I have lived in. So would recommend you steer clear of this company. They do nothing but give us false hope and caused many of us to get excited for no reason.

It's a never ending cycle of emails and games that gives you tokens for prizes that I don't think really exist... just to finally get you to order something for more than its worth... And then charge you shipping on top of that which is really what the item is worth. You pay about 3-5 times what something is worth. I ordered suspenders because I have no butt to hold my pants up and I'm not a gangsta so I don't purposely show my $#*!. The suspenders are of good quality and made in the USA. But the elevated shipping costs made them costs Twice what I bought a even better set at Ace Hardware. And I was only given a choice of paying the entire bill, What happened to the 5 payments of What the $#*! ever..

For some unknown reason, the site isn't letting me enter any of the contests. I attempt over and over to enter the $7,000 a week contest as well as a couple of others and when I get back to the main page, I find myself having to start over because it doesn't register the entries. I don't know if it's a bug in the site or if it's an issue with needing to clear the cache, but if they can do something to prevent it. I don't want to waste my time on this as it is getting me nowhere. I've been having this problem since Sunday of this week.

I have been presented with many great bargains on the PCH Plus app. They are too good to be true. The latest one was shown to me at least a dozen times and said I could get a deluxe box set of karl Lagerfeld colored pencils for $39.99 plus tax. A dozen times, I thought this is a rip off. There is no way the price is this low but, they finally wore me down. I figured if it was a rip off I could just contact PCH and they would fix it because these people were advertising on their app. NOPE. I waited 2 months for my pencils to arrive and then checked the URL they gave me during checkout which went to a no longer existing site. I contacted PCH through their laborious and deliberately complicated help site. 2 days later, the response was that there are many different types of advertisers on the app and the particular advertiser I responded to was the kind that they don't monitor or endorse. WHAT? This means that if you donate to a charity on their side, or subscribe to something or buy a product on their app, it may or may not be legit. You will know if it is legit when you do or don't receive something for what you paid. If you don't receive something for what you paid, it's not legit, so please don't bother PCH. Yes, they let them rip you off, but tough luck. Maybe next time you pay for something on the PCH app you will be lucky enough to get what you paid for. The lesson is that buying something on the PCH app is similar to entering a PCH contest, you may or you may not win.

I didn't get the pop up barrels from PCH, buy one and get one free. I never got that. Can you tell me why? I really need that, because I got four big trees, a tree at each corner of the house. I like these barrels, because it will be easy for me to rake the leaves on the hill in front of my house and be able to carry its up the LONG STEPS! It lighter for me to carry the pop up barrels with leaves up the long stairs.It will be better for me, because I got a blood clots on my right leg.

While I understand the goal of the app is have the user click as many adds and confuse the person, STILL I was expecting a degree of ethical conduct but I was wrong! The frustration of being stuck at a level and no matter what I clicked on, nothing worked! Site was frozen! This came in addition to receiving merchandise I did NOT order and being billed for it. My attempts to contact PCH customer service went unanswered! Scam all the way! Deleting this useless app and time to contact BBB about the merchandise I didn't order but I'm charged for!

Who are the people who win these prizes? Nobody now them at all. They are all actors. You can enter and enter for al song as you want but you will never win. You will never know the "person" who won... When I was in my 20's I entered all the time, bought almost everything so I would have a better chance at wining. Spent more money on PCH then I did on my own children. They would want a toy. Nope not today PCH comes first so we can win and buy lots and lots of toys My children went without while PCH got all my money. I am now 64 and still have not won a thing. Not even a free subscription to a magazine. It's all fake and heartbreaking.

Quit PCH because i kept getting junk--some i ordered but got confused because i did not remember ordering some things. I decided to try again, and what do you know, i received a email asking for payment of a tv guide--something i would NEVER use! Do aha, caught you in the act, PCH! No more-i am finished for good! What disgusts me is they prey on old people and poor people keeping them hopeful. Oh, and i tried to get the message to customer support that only sends me to play--same with my account. Can you spell F-I-N-I-S-H-E-D, PCH!

Ive been with them since 2016, i deleted this app. For the overwhelming emails they send me, not only that i stop playing then 4 months i stopped theysend me a ten dollar check in the mail, i don't know how that happened but its a trap so me being the idiot i am i re downloaded it again a week ago wishing to win something big, and i check all the time winners and noticed no one and i mean no one has won in lancaster pa our population is over 300 thousand so what does that tell you, and now they got Steve Harvey saying $#*! legit he should work in a old folks home, chewing there food lollll now thats funny any who i fell for it again in now going to delete it again, i have a better chance at playing scratch off on pa lottery which have won at least 250 in a yr so don't take it from me who been playing since 2016 peace out pch and stop stressing people with all those email butt wipes.

PCH items for sale are a little high. Then they charge you $7.99 for shipping a 2 oz. Package. This is where they get the money to pay for the winners, if there really are any. Every day they send out harassment emails trying to get you to spend more money, in the guise of games that can be won. Trying to make you think that if you buy more, you have a better chance to win, even though there is a disclosure. So my advice is to put the money you would have spent on the magazines and junk in the bank. Then you will have won money by not wasting it.

For anyone simple-minded enough to believe they might win something via PCH, let alone get an order they may have placed... good luck! The "systematic flood of emails with offers, games multiple times each day" are only a tease to get you to their end-game--magazine over-priced magazine subscriptions and third rate products from China made for them or their nefarious suppliers. Do yourself and your mailbox a favor and avoid, delete any email from them. You have a better chance of being hit by an asteriod, winning the Jackpot in a lottery is even far better odds than this hyper-fear-based mongering by the "Lords of PCH"
