I have been playing Publishers Clearing House for decades. Most recently, online. While I did make purchases earlier, I WONT EVER AGAIN. I know they say "purchase not required" but I felt SOMETHING was holding me back from even the tiniest prize. NOW, I have accumulated OVER >TWO HUNDRED MILLION TOKENS< and NOT WON the smallest prize NOR first CENT of money! Those who play regularly KNOW "Black Diamond" status (second highest!) is no small chore. I have "redeemed" ALL OF THOSE TOKENS and..nothing.
FIRST, to offer "Games" with ODDS HIGHER THAN the COMBINED POPULATIONS OF INDIA AND CHINA to ONE should be banned! It is a SCAM because I'm surmising they get "pay per click" funding and YOU MAKE THEM THE MONEY while NO REALISTIC Winning odds! Curious, I began to research "Winners" this I found: Here are ALL the OVER One Million dollar winners I could find - HAGMAN - 1MM; JONKER -1MM; MARSHALL -1MM; FEDER - 1MM; and FELDMAN{!} 2.5 MM! Check your Hollywood-similar name rosters and SEE if you can draw a conclusion!
Yes, others "win" smaller but NOT at this ratio! Check out the names of PCH hierarchy too. The Federal Trade Commission should investigate this, but, my guess, is they would be paid off too. Like so many of YOU, I am just an ordinary citizen and Disabled Veteran. Except for Lotteries and Sweepstakes, there is NO other path to wealth for Us. Jackpots are everyone's goal BUT NOT a SINGLE CENT with all that entry tells me something IS WRONG! There is ZERO TRANSPARENCY.
I have contacted PCH numerous times about Winning/Winners. HOW many times has someone played to Win? HAVE they won smaller prizes before? How many entries did they submit when they won a jackpot? DO long term players get beat out by new players when TV ads appear just days before final entry? ZERO RESPONSE! I NEVER ask for personal data either JUST FACTS! SO, continue to play if you wish but I think I'm done and going back to Mega Millions and Powerball where odds are ONLY 300 MM to 1!! I hope this saves some of you more grief and clarifies what I have been through!

This is a 100% fraudulent organization that pushes everyone who enters its sweepstakes into buying its own products and services, most of which are not worthwhile or worth the price that they're selling for. I hate criminals like these people are.

On Feb 9th of 2021, I won $100 on the $10,000 power cash drop bonus game at 9:30 am. They sent me an email congratulating me. They said it will take 3 to 5 weeks to get paid. After contacting them they say they will "reissue" the check. Well, you can't reissue something that was never issued in the first place. So as requested, I sent them the screenshot of my winning. Which is stupid because they know I won.
They are scam artists and complete frauds. Stay away. They think they can get away with it. Because they do everyday. What they don't know is that my son works for a high profile law firm as an attorney. You would think they would be smart enough to know they have lost lawsuits before. Well, they messed with the wrong person. If I don't get my $100 soon, which I won fair and square, they will be sued again and have zero chance of winning. But hey, if they are dumb enough to not pay the $100 and want to lose much more in a lawsuit, I'm all in for that. Don't deal with these scam artists.

I've been entering & playing the Publisher's Clearing House games for more than a few years (almost daily) & have even purchased items through their mail order services since 2013. As for the products received through mail order, the items received were (for the most part) very similar to what was advertised & I really have no complaints about them. Basically, ya get what ya pay for & as for pricing, the individual prices are comparable to what ya might find on Amazon or possibly at Walmart.
However, when you add in the shipping, the pricing/costs of most products can be better through Amazon and/or Walmart. I will say, however, that the quality of the products are good & I've been quite satisfied with the products I've chosen. As for the sweepstakes, I truly believe the sweeps are for real & that REAL people win. Odds of winning are (literally) astronomical, on paper it's easier to win the lottery, however Publisher's Clearing House does not require any investment & therefore more entrants are procured. As for customer service, I'll say the customer service has been top notch. From personal experience, I have returned products that didn't live up to expectations & have received full refunds.
I have even accidentally ordered a product, called customer service immediately & later found the order to have been reversed, with no charges to my debit card incurred. While I realize that others have posted negative reviews related to their own experiences with customer service, I'm a bit confused when reading about their experience as mine has been very pleasing. Maybe it's because I don't expect more than I should from a mail order type business, or maybe it's just dumb luck (I don't really think this is the case) but I definitely disagree with those reviews. Also, I've won $10 on 2 occasions & believe (in my heart of hearts) that the big win ($1k /day for life) is absolutely real & I remain hopeful that one of these jackpots have MY NAME on it. That said, I will continue to enter the sweeps nearly every day until I do win & after I HAVE WON, I'll continue ordering products through their mail order offerings for the rest of MY life!

I am here to report a definite scam by Publishers Clearing House. I played the game Tri Peaks Rush and was number one leading the token board up until midnight when the game ended. My name was Kris H on the token board, at the top. I should have won the $100 promised, but they won’t recognize that I won at all. They say they have no record of me even playing under my email address, even though I played for 5 hours straight. I sent them a snapshot of the board showing I was number 1 right before the time was up to play the game. It still made no difference to them. They are a scam for sure. I am so disappointed as I have played for hours on end for over a year, and for them not to acknowledge that I won the $100 is beyond comprehensible. I will not play, ever again.

PCH isn't a scam but folks need to manage their expectations. The odds of winning even small prizes are in the millions, it's aspirational and not an effective way to make money. It is basically a lottery, but instead of buying tickets with money you buy them with your personal data and time watching ads. I feel that elderly folks in particular need to be very careful and read through what they're clicking on. No purchase is necessary, you just need to keep clicking "continue" at the bottom until you're entered. Spam email can be avoided by always unchecking the boxes that say "yes, sign me up for the mailing list" and also creating a separate email account just for giveaways just in case.

I registered for the sweepstakes. When I completed, they prompted me to complete the process. It then became obvious they wanted me to purchase something. No cost or obligation, remember? I stopped the process. Now they keep harassing me with these emails to complete so I can "win". Stay away!

I have been doing their sweepstakes for 10 years or so, I believe that people are using bots to submit entries, which has been brought up in chats, and makes this unfair for those of us who actually spend time on their website. Have not won anything even submitting millions of tokens. Who else is having this issue?

I ordered a magazine subscription, which I paid for but never received. I just got off the phone with customer service because after over 40 minutes speaking to 3 different people in different departments, their end dropped the call. This happened two weeks ago. When tried to resolve it after 30+ minutes, they dropped the call that time too. This was my 6th call about this, and I just wanted my money back. This has been going on since September and they still owe me $20+ bucks. It is now January 22! I am finally going to let them keep my money not to have to deal with them ever again!

I won a tournament prize as the leader. The prize was 3 figures. They notified me via email. Their site clearly defines that these check go out 3-5 weeks later. I received it as stated. As for marketing, well it is marketing! We don’t go one day without being blasted with advertising until we sleep. PCH clearly states that ordering will increase your chances of winning. Meaning your orders have no bearing whatsoever on your chances of winning.
Using tokens to enter giveaways is like buying raffle tickets. Based on statistics of the number of total entries. There are many ways to earn tokens or cash like in tournaments like I did. Leaderboards based on your level and status, payout in the hundreds if you win. Other top scorers win large sums of tokens. Read everything on all their apps to learn how to make tokens, disclosures and sweepstakes rules. It seems to be transparent.
Now comes the bad part. Their site constantly freezes up during gameplay and in between games. I have followed their recommendations on their site, updated my phone, had excellent internet signal and even played in the wee hours of 12 AM to 5 AM to make sure it wasn’t internet jam. However living in a rural area, not many people using their internet at those hours. No matter the time it continues to freeze after a few games in all apps and site. This is quite annoying and I spend more time reloading the game than playing most times. I have even lost big token wins due to the freezing and incapability of the site’s server. Several times I received technical difficulty messages. Unfortunately, this is a flaw of all video games.
I did question a $40 cash win I thought I should have been notified about. I emailed them with specific details and asked them to look into it. They responded back via email within 3 days. After their response I played my Elite Scratch Card to find it was the same game as the one described. This being the 2nd time seeing this card. It had to be the blurry eyes at 4 AM because I won the the exact prize but now I could see and it was an entry for the $40K prize. So as of now, no complaints against customer service. MOST IMPORTANTLY! There are fake websites out there posing as PCH. Make sure you’re on the official site before posting any negative reviews. I am not in any way affiliated with PCH in the past or present. This is an honest review from a PCH player.

I ordered a gift for a friend in early November. It never arrived, but they asked for payment in an email from their site. A week ago the product arrived with no invoice. The outside of the package was labeled "your replacement order". That was the only package from them. Now, on a fixed income, I do not reply to much of their correspondence. I have not ordered from them for ten years. They forget who their loyal customers were. I called them last Friday and asked for a bill with an invoice to be sent to me in the mail. After some conversation, they acknowledged my request. Nothing has come in the mail from them yet. Now I will keep this present for a while in case I have to return it to them. They will not get another order from me.

After reaching Yellow Diamond level the Wheel spun & landed on $900.00 cash prize. Highlighted in yellow clear as day. Seconds later the box disappeared & it said I won 25k tokens.

They said they would look into it & over the next 2 days 2 different people called me back with the same nonsense about their software. They ask me if I took a screenshot, ha! In seconds the box disappears. Where's their screenshot of it landing on 25k tokens! It's a fact it landed on the $900.00. They are cheats & should not be allowed to cheat people like they do.

I am complaining about Publishers Clearing House. I used many tokens to win giveaway #160208, $289.00 to spend on a new lawnmower. I was notified that I had won, the prize amount shown was correct, they said it would be deliver the next day by 8pm. I waited all day and it never came, I tried calling them several times, after waiting 15 to 30 minutes for a technical person, I told them the problem and even gave them my account # and giveaway number 16208. They gave me a number to the games department then I was back on the waiting list I had already been on, so I called back the next day and waited 15 minutes on hold, repeated the same problem to the person he put me on hold then hung up.

A few years ago I played around with the app of Publishers Clearing House playing the games and it would give free promotions to try a magazine for free! A magazine no a subscription of magazines! I drive a truck so last year while gone I was receiving these magazines in my mailbox three different kinds of magazines! So I tried to find a phone number and on a envelope I found they were trying to bill me but there's no number to call only a email to customer service! You send a email and they get back to you and this is how I had to communicate. I explained I did not order these and I wanted it stopped. Customer service said they would cancel this and take care of this. For about two months no magazines and then all of a sudden am getting them again. Am really tired of this and need new avenues to take!

I cannot believe some of you people. You think you can sue them because you do not win? First no one forces you to play their games or enter the contest. Have you even looked at the odds? It is like 3 billion to one that you get chosen. They say in writing that to make a purchase will not improve your odds of winning. So if you buy anything that is on you. I play all the time, for fun! Sure if I could win would be great, but I do not get my hopes up. Get real people.

I am going to be contacting an attorney due to the experience I have had with PCH and the $7000 a week for life. I entered the sweepstakes under the contest rules of “no purchase to win” and I have been contacted daily since with emails stating that I still need to finalize my entry by completing the last step. That last step is a purchase of junk merchandise. This is all very misleading and not what they have advertised to the public. All in all, it is fraud. I will get the advice of an attorney and see what happens. And going forward, I won’t ever deal with PCH again.

I have been a customer and sweepstakes player of PCH for 13 years now since 2007 and I am very disappointed and dissatisfied with their delivery services on getting your item or product to you after it's ordered. It has taken me almost two months to get products delivered to me. I know with covid it takes a little longer but pch has always been slower than most places I've ordered items from like up to three to four weeks more and their sweepstakes is a hassle to try to submit a entry. You have to scroll through several pages of items and products they market online to finally get to the submit button and I have entered numerous entries. I would say a good couple hundreds of thousands of entries since 2007 and never won a thing. I think it's just a way to keep you playing. You think a person would win something since that time.

This company is the definition of a scam artist in the purest sense because they have honed their craft. They push the limits of legality through deceptive and misleading emails that ultimately connive their way into convincing you to buy dollar store products at ridiculously inflated prices---they also convince you that purchase isn't necessary but keep buying to increase your chances of course. They prey on the elderly which is why I'm here. A family member nearly drained her savings for this company because they relentlessly bombard people with cleverly worded emails with "fun" illustrations that make it seem like they've already won something.
People that defend them by saying they are a legitimate company have been sucked into this carefully laid trap that winning millions is one click (and purchase) away. They even set the hook by letting people win a very small cash prize initially to keep them coming back and buying. Their email promotions are downright disgusting because they clearly have a legal team that has advised them how to word things to be as deceptive as possible yet still be "legal". Yes, this company is "real" but so were snake oil salesmen. Scams come in all forms.

Called today to ascertain where it is-per tracking number is waiting to go to USPS. As usual have paid high shipping costs to still be waiting. CS person, Ann, hung up on me when discussing situation. I have only used mailed products during pandemic, all come soon except PCH which has always been about a month to 1.5 months while they say should arrive in 2 wks. PCH tried to use excuse of pandemic however, everyone else seems to be able to get products to people much quicker. After ordering several products, they want your money immediately and too long to ship, product quality is usually disappointing. DO NOT RECOMMEND EVER ORDERING FROM THIS COMPANY ESPECIALLY IF A CS SUPERVISOR HANGS UP ON CALLER WHO IS DISSATISFIED AND TRYING TO FIND SOLUTION.

If I know that it was a tricky way of them getting your money I will never get the ugly country clock and a plastic plate for about more than 30 dollars each so I have bill for over 71 dollars just for the plastic plates and plastic clock.
I just know it after weeks they send me bill that I need to pay I was shocked. I don't know that it was this amount they don't showed the price when I pick it just to have entry. And I just ignore it because I was upset. I shouldn't believe this scam. They report me to credit union because I don't pay them. If I knew that it was this price I don't think I will do it.

I think they should be sued and where I played for over a 1 year nonstop but the past 4 months my health has got worse and my legs are weak... and it's worse than a job. It's a 7 days a week job and they want you to buy stuff and when you log into the website they make money from it...

PCH needs to let people know POSITIVELY that entries are VALID. All else should be clearly identified as extra bonus opportunities ABOVE AND BEYOND THE MAIN ENTRY. I cannot understand how PCH has an "A+ Rating with The Better Business Bureau". The tactics PCH uses have made me highly skeptical of the BBB's reliability. Thankfully, ConsumerAffairs has made it possible to air the dirty laundry of both enterprises.
I ordered ONCE from PCH. Merchandise was shoddy, & overpriced; shipping, handling etc., greatly inflated. AND, they were made in China, from materials that might not pass safety standards in the USA. There was a time when the PCH contests were respectable, fun, & sent by snail mail. Once your entry hit the mailbox, you knew you were in the running. Now they use nasty tactics of trickery, bribery, fear-mongering, and not-so-subtle bullying. One must scroll past tons of gimcracks & geegaws. Then, when you're SURE you entered correctly, you're bombarded with email after email of dire warnings that you missed a critical step! To try to correct the "omission", you're forced to scroll past the same dreadfully expensive cheap merchandise, only to get more emails that you somehow "goofed" again! ENOUGH!

They say there's no purchase necessary to enter but would not finalize until I did. Or to be more accurate, they kept prompting "next step", which were page after page after page of advertisements. I finally decided to order something if there was anything I could actually use. Even after that, I couldn't finalize - more ads showed up. My husband had tried this also and had the same experiences. I saw other reviews from people who said they had won but who had spent a great deal of time doing it, one person said they had won something twice, once $5 and once $10!

I am very close to a billion tokens. Though, I've never won a dime. I don't rely on PCH, as I find this gaming to be immoral at every level. However, I do trust God and the Universe to supply my every need. I call and play every day. What I don't appreciate is the mind games, ie: You could soon be very blessed, Retirement may be earlier than you think, Waiting on your response, From the desk of Executive with a name provided etc. I find it to be exceptionally disheartening to day the least. Never ever should this be deemed to be legitimate or acceptable. People's emotions are really high with the prospect of winning, very sad that they aren't taking any of this serious. Notifications such as the ones I've shared has people's emotions extremely high.
Restructuring of their practices should be carefully considered and revised. I play all the Sweepstakes and enter in every way possible, inclusive to the sweepstakes, I play Mahjongg ever single day keeping my own scores and I have never been on the list... And this is factually accurate that I score the highest every day. I should be in the Guinness book for breaking records. Hence, whoever is claiming to read these reviews are fake and lie too. Lastly, who are these individuals winning every 5 minutes???? I couldn't work for a company such as this with no laurels or integrity.

Publishers Clearing House is nothing but a scam. I have played the games the scratch offs and have entered most of the sweepstakes multiple times and use my tokens on a Amazon Fire stick almost 6 million of them and still haven't won a penny in prizes and sweepstakes. The only then I have gotten from these games and sweepstakes are sent to surveys and different sites to sell something to do someone that has no money that lives on Section 8 that has multiple sclerosis and epilepsy.
I was hoping to at least win something as many times have I played these games and as many tokens I have won. But from what I've seen on television and on the posts on the PCH website the only people who do when are the ones that are already financially privileged and have homes of their own and the ones that can look pretty on television and living with good health and don't have a care in the world so I'm assuming that's the only kind of people that are able to win anything off this bogus sweepstakes.
Publishers Clearing House should be ashamed of themselves for not allowing someone that has nothing to experience what it's like to have something in their life but I guess that's the direction this country is going under President Trump and take care of the rich and privileged and leave the common people and the sick and disabled in the gutter. This country it's supposed to be about equal opportunity but somewhere down the line those values have been forgotten.

I've been playing since February of 2014, sometimes for over 24 hours and ALL I've won is a $20 check in August of this year and I'm still waiting on the $5 I was to have received over a week ago. I think pch.com is a scam and rip off of time and energy! They don't maintain their site very well and I've been hacked five times because of pch.com! Their commercials SUCK too! I've been telling them NO pharmaceutical or cancer commercials and now their college commercials! I'm fricking retired! I don't take pharmaceuticals and I don't need cancer pushed on me! I'm really sick of pch.com not complying with my wishes so I don't play near as much. I think it's a scam!

Publishers Clearing House is making tons of money by having non-stop ads pop up slowing the games down and you think someone may win something every now and then. Pay close attention to the daily game winners and you'll see at least 12 of the same names that win every day, which I'm sure PCH makes up. Prove me wrong!

PCH itself is not technically a scam, but they are advertising scams on their website. After you go to enter their latest big drawing, you are bombarded with page after page of “survey questions” that aren’t questions at all but gateways to scam upon scam upon scam that could very easily fool the less internet-savvy among us. You are not going to make hundreds of dollars per day by working from home, you have not won a $1000 Walmart gift card, and this new trick will not make you lose 40 pounds while you sleep. It is absolutely despicable that PCH would promote this garbage on their own website. This combined with their questionable business practices is screaming STAY AWAY!!!

Publishers Clearing House is a scam. They send you bills for products not ordered or received and bill you. When you enter the sweepstakes, you are actually entering an order and giving them the right to bill you. They will then ruin your credit over unpaid bills for junk you haven’t ordered. One of the oldest scams in America. They love to prey upon elderly people through mass mailings!!! Call your public service commissioner and get this company stopped!!!!! I have called and told them to stop sending mail, opted out under federal privacy but it is still being sent. Let’s team up and form a class action lawsuit for privacy violation laws.

PCH scammers have called me to say I have won 2.5 million and a new car. Currently they have become more realistic by giving you their phone number so you can call them anytime. The caller then asks you questions and gives you his ID number and gives you a combination number saying do not allow anyone to have the combination number as you will need it when they come to your house with a briefcase full of money, a giant cardboard check and your new car. The caller says he will call you back in the morning which he does to string you along making it more realistic. He tells you they are on their way to your house and will call you back in about 15 minutes.
Next call comes from a different guy asking if you are able to pay tax on the car today. He says, "I will explain how you're going to pay your tax" which is when you're supposed to either wire them the customs tax money or go to your bank and do something. They wanted me to pay 1,500.00. This is where I said in no way would I ever pay for anything I have won and ended their scam calls.

Interesting that PCH claims that no purchase is ever necessary to enter one of their contests, because just this morning I received an email from them which plainly indicates that it is mandatory to purchase one of the items or subscriptions listed in the email to complete an entry. "WE SEE YOU'VE NEVER ORDERED BEFORE... WILL YOU SAY "YES" TO YOUR FIRST ORDER TODAY?" If you do not order an item, this is the message that pops up when hitting the confirm entry button: "CART EMPTY. This is disappointing, **... We've worked hard to bring you some of our best values in this notice! Are You Sure You Don't Want To Place Your First Order Here? An order here gets you access to more Private Sales and lets us bring you more great deals on items we think you love! Please go back and give one of our incredible, money-saving offers a try today!"
A 'GO BACK' button then appears at the bottom of this announcement, and you cannot proceed to any further steps without placing an order for merchandise. I thought this was illegal? And certainly seems to go against PCH's claim that it's not required to spend money to enter any of their drawings. And yes, this is an actual PCH mailing, not a spoof.

I have many examples that I could give, but I'll only give a few for why I believe it's a waste of time and effort to try to win anything at the PCH sites. In PCH Games I've played the "flip'n win" game hundreds of times but have never won cash, only tokens. I purposely have picked the same middle 3rd position card (of the 5 cards lined up face down) every time and only token wins have come up. Yet, in every other position cash-awarded cards (ace, king, queen, jack or ten) have come up. It is against the odds that a cash-awarded card would NEVER have shown up in the middle 3rd position. Therefore, I believe it's fixed. If I were to pick a different position (1st, 2nd, 4th or 5th), I believe only token cards would show up and only then would a cash-awarded card show up in the middle position.
As another reviewer, Charles of Ridgeville, SC, stated, "Good examples are the horse race & the car race - never finished higher than 4th place no matter what horse, or what car I choose." I've also experienced the same numerous times playing those two games. Again, they're obviously fixed. Heaven forbid that they would ever make the games fair where you could win based upon actual odds.
I played PCHkeno for 24-hours straight and nearly was the top finisher (2nd place). I had been in the top position many times during the 24-hour period and was in the top position going into the final hour. Then, miraculously another player comes from behind and advances with astronomical amounts to beat me by 3800 points (which is a very small amount in PCHkeno; my ending score was 2,093,025). How do I know that these other "players" or "IDs" are real? I believe they are not and most likely bot IDs where a program makes adjustments to the bot totals to overcome real players' scores when needed. I don't believe it is worthwhile to spend time playing these games when everything is fixed and not left to probability.

I get that, and the “no purchase necessary" routine but I am now besieged with phone calls on numerous products and when you request your number be removed they hang up and another sequence of numbers ends up on your phone. The real problem is that the area code is in my region and waiting for a return call from my doctor's office when these calls come forces me to answer and the process never ends just like my chances of winning anything. This is why I hesitated entering the PCH contest and YES, I read the rules and the fine print. Good luck to those of you that play their game.

I'm an active sweepstaker. I enter on lots of sites other than PCH. I'm aware of reading rules, gimmicky advertising, spam, and the fact that a purchase will NEVER increase your odds of winning. I love PCH. If you play often you increase your odds. I play on the website, mobile site, PCH app, PCH Lotto App, and participate on Inside PCH live show on their Facebook page. Yes I give up a lot of time but this is my hobby and favorite thing to do. I've won lots of prizes on other sites over the years from small to large like trips. I started PCH spring of 2018. I claimed $2460 in winnings to the IRS. Those winnings came from Inside PCH, being top token earner, searching on their search engine and on a spin after moving up a level.
THIS year...I've won $1559 so far on Inside PCH -- I was the 10th caller, top token earner and a surprise $10 for who knows what. Yes I put in a lot of time, energy, internet data, spam (I have a dedicated account just for sweepstakes spam and I enter every spam email I get from PCH to generate more entry numbers). That's the game. Increase your odds or maybe just get lucky. I increase my odds. I've been in some of their YouTube videos as a winner. I'm not paid to talk nicely about them but I can't ever get upset when these wins pay for my kids sports and school expenses. Of course a job would pay more for the time I spend on PCH but like I said, this is a hobby and as a stay at home mom it's the most convenient way to contribute to my family while multitasking and have fun and try for the big ones.
I've learned some tips to be more efficient. I use my keyboard home and end page buttons to skip over order pages. I accidentally ordered once. I called customer service and had it cancelled with no problems. If I'm going for top token earner, I make sure not to miss any bonus plays. I do the Sweepstakes and Instant Win tabs first on the site and do the bonus play after every 5 games. I'm in 2nd place today but I've won twice before so it's possible just time consuming. Sorry for the long post, I can go on forever with tips and my experience. Overall, yes the marketing and spam suck, but the wins are possible if you put in the work or get lucky. I stay positive and persistent because even the losing entries are important. They make it possible for someone else to win because they generate an entry number. I love to see people win even if not me because I know my time will come. Good luck all--$5000 a week for life awarded soon.

I get their offers through the mail, rather than online. People should bear in mind, before getting involved, that this is not a one-time entry. Once you enter, you will continually get envelopes with a lot of advertising material, as well as a form to send back for the entry. They have stickers in various places in the bundle you receive so it's a matter of finding them, stick them on the entry form, and returning by mail. They provide an envelope but you provide the postage. Since these bundles come every 2-3 weeks, if you faithfully return them, it will cost you a lot in postage.
I used to look at the stuff they were advertising because they often have neat little gadgets, especially for the kitchen. I've ordered a few but the price is too high, and the shipping even higher. The items do not always work. Some of these items can be found in your local Dollar Tree or Christmas Tree Shops. Between having to send in my forms too often, and ridiculously priced gadgets, I decided not to continue this. Maybe they have real winners, maybe they don't.

What bugs me most is the longest ads are the most irrelevant to the average person willing to spend time to play their games. Main offender- SK-II. I'm willing to bet less than 5% of the people who play PCH games and enter online can even afford that product, but they beat us to death with these long-winded ads. I might stop just for that reason. If I could afford that product, I wouldn't even waste my time on that site.

In 2007 my name was used on Publishers Clearing House website. This was an early bird sneak peek. I was using search engine blingo. The company used my first and last name on their website. There were other winners named Emmanuel etc. This was the 1170 super prize. I called the company and they lied and said I didn't win. A few years later my identity ended up on the California lottery website website page under winning numbers page. When I called the California lottery I spoke with Catherine and she said did I ever win anything because they only use winners that have won.
Since then I've been trying to get through to PCH and all I get is the runaround. I feel because I'm black they used my information any way they wanted without giving me my prize. Shutter stock, Avalon modeling agency used my likeness and picture for advertising without my permission. All I asked was to be treated fair. I've been robbed 3 times. Stitches in my eyebrows cut with a dull edged knife on my hand, hospital bills etc, even time I was robbed I had no money. Just food stamps. Even had to move out of state because people thought I was a millionaire. It's unfair. It's as putting a gun to someone's hands and pulling the trigger. Still haven't received my 5000 a week for life prize.

The last couple of items which I received were not satisfactory so I stopped buying. However, since I no longer buy, I no longer receive entry forms. You might not have to purchase to win, but you do have to purchase to receive entries. So, if you don't get entries, then you can't enter. If you don't enter, you can't win - very interesting.

I purchased a small $34.26 item a couple months ago. When I received the bill I promptly wrote a check for the full amount and mailed it in the provided envelope. This was on March 15, 2019. I then got another bill on April 22 stating it was past due and needed to pay it to avoid an extra charge of $4.50. I checked my bank and the check had not been cashed, so I wrote another check and included a note about the previous check. This time I copied the check, my note and the addressed envelope. I took it into the post office rather than using a post office box. Coincidentally I mailed a couple other bills outer state. This was on April 23.
Today I received an email advising me to pay online or get the $4.50 worth of charges. I don't like giving my account information online to them. I called and got stuck in a loop all trying to get me to pay online through an automated program. After several choices and getting nowhere, I called their fraud department to talk to a human. It turns out she really is with customer service. They are still claiming they don't have my blasted check.
What is frustrating is something similar happened to me with Publishers Clearing House several years ago. That time I paid the bill and the check was lost. The second notice had a finance charge added on it. I paid it because I never could get a live person and it was only $15. I wanted it paid, I was in the process of buying another house and didn't want anything left hanging. That check with extra fees was cashed. It feels like a scam to get consumers to pay bogus finance fees. None of these checks are as much as a stop payment will be. Lesson learned, never be from Publishers Clearing House again. Meanwhile, I am not sure who I should report this to. Thank you, Barbara **.

I think it is fair to say that we all would like to keep some sort of hope that we can be the next winner???? From PCH pay out of some sort. How it would just help out in so many ways but aside from the huge far fetched dream the real question is the PCH for real or is it just fake with paid actors claiming to win? Well I do have some real evidence from first hand experience myself with this PCH monster company that I have been contemplating that very question for the past few years until I myself was contacted by this PCH themselves more than once by email notifying me that I was a winner.
Now this was not those fake emails that we all get from time to time saying we won and we need to pay to get the money some transferred to our bank account. Which is so stupid because if we someone really won and it was for real they would be able to take whatever taxes or fines straight from the winnings and would not need you to pay anything from your pocket whatsoever. So if you ever are asked to pay out of your pocket it is fake. Sorry backed to my real email from PCH. They sent me a message saying my name in huge capital letters. GERALD ** from SUNNYVALE CALIFORNIA just won $10,000. So I said to myself, “Oh my God. This is a joke. Did I really win?” I asked myself. Then I seen I was sent another email immediately after again from PCH apologizing for a mistake that they made and were looking into it so that it never happens again.
Explaining that name was accidentally copied in to the real winners spot and that I did not win. And they left a name and number if I wanted to contact them if I had any questions. I was upset and left questioning is this real or fake. That is where I am still in search of finding the truth. But I have can confirm they do have some real winners because I have been contacted by PCH four different times by email saying I won $100 because I was the top score of the blackjack contests they have every day at midnight 12:00a.m.
I did receive a real check for $100 four different times from PCH so they do have real winners but my only question is do they have big huge winners too? That does not have my full confidence because I have not seen the proof for any million dollar winners. I only can speak for a $100???? Which I can say is real. But not the 10,000 winner sweepstakes that I believe is fake.

But it's still never promised to us. I'm shocked and blessed that I won 10.00 dollars on playing games and watching ads, without me spending any money. And I do not expect much more.
The odds are against you for any winnings and they have the warnings everywhere. So to get upset or pissed off because you don't win is pointless. As for the ads, how do you think they make the money to pay the winners and as for the freezing problems it is their software or hardware trying to keep up with so many people trying to win a grand prize to support their dreams.

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. It is not uncommon for PCH to show an initial price which is 10-25% higher than other sources AND then they add bogus shipping charges plus, in some cases, a "heavy item" fee so their final price is 30-50% more than what a customer can find online elsewhere.

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 the false hope of winning to keep you playing the games on their site as long as they possibly can. The webmaster can then look at the logs to get statistics to put infront of advertisers to get them to buy commercial time and if you've ever been to pch.com you know it's all about advertisement. Every page is absolutely covered in animated advertisement and you get advertisement videos between games and in the case of the slots you will get an advertisement between every spin.
Pch.com more than likely pulls in hundreds of millions of dollars a year 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, 10, or 20 dollar gift card the last hour. It can take you 12 hours or more some days to play all the games due to the repeated advertisements between games and what sucks even more is there is no variety in the advertisement, I want to find the people in the Skin Chat video and punch all of them in the mouth since their commercial is played over and over and over and over again.

This "company" is a SCAM. There's no if, ands or butts about it. I know there's 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 anything talk bad about PCH." Well duh. No **, that's kinda what happens when a company claims to have sweepstakes and gives away money when in fact it's all fake and one big scam to get views on the spam so they can get money. It's not just about not winning, that I could deal 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 but spam, you can't enter/do anything without being forced to go through endless pages of spam article links, spam ads all over their site and don't get me started on the hellish spam emails I get nonstop from them. They're making millions if not billions off of us and in return we don't get jack except a never ending supply of spam and lies.
I've been on PCH for years now so trust me when I say I have a pretty good knowledge of how their site looks, how it operates and things like that. The fact that their whole site revolves around spam, the fact that once you sign up with them and enter your first "sweepstakes" you're bombarded day in and day out with spam emails and the fact that all these supposed "winners" of their contests they show on their website make no sense and sound made up. (Someone with the name Tamar? Someone with some made up stereotypical Indian name living in the deep south? 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 now, would any real person in their right 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 money I honestly cannot see a real person being okay with that, now a made up person I'm sure would be cool 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 single thing. I'm one of the people who does these kinds of things because I need money and needing money to survive can really make you desperate and make you do stupid things which is why I've been using their site for so long. Deep down I always knew something was off about 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 before yesterday I'm playing and for the first time it grabbed a money bag but guess what? I didn't win jack, it grabbed the money bag and just as it was about to hit 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 annoyed ** with those cheesy ** congratulation messages you get... I'm 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's admit it you have a better chance of Jesus Christ coming down from the sky then you do of winning these scam artists contests.) That happened twice, yesterday and the day before yesterday but today it went back to grabbing tokens. Once again they just scream scam, even when you do what you need to win you still don't win...
It's my honest belief that only older people and/or rich people win lotteries and things like that, people who actually need money for survival never win. Not too long ago there was a lotto that hit a billion dollars and what age do you think the person was who won it? 90 years old. Don't believe me? Go do your research and you'll see how many older and/or well off people win things. It's such a painful feeling when you put so much time, effort, money and hope into something only for it to be dashed then you get that why bother feeling and want to give up, but at least 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 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 take 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 have no idea how or why this "company" is even allowed to continue. 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 start a petition to get PCH shut down, people managed to get their "having to buy our junk to enter" tactic they used to do shut down, there's endless evidence of PCH's scamming out there, 99.9% of their reviews are bad, so I know getting them shut down is very possible. Hopefully everyone will start coming to their senses like I did to get this monster shut down.

I have been entering Publishers Clearing 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 instance when you first enter the $7000.00 a week for life contest, it shows that you have won 10.000 tokens for the token board. But then when it puts the number of tokens on the token board, it only shows 1000 points. Then as you play more games during that time, you lose more tokens due to the fact you can't get the games to play. This all comes up empty, showing you have played the games and you have not even 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. Also every time I redeem my tokens, I don't see a thing from it. Beginning to think that they are very much a scammer. You enter and enter all the time, but what do you get. If I was to win the $7000.00 weekly for life it would really and truly be a miracle. They have sent me names of people that was suppose to have won in my state, but I have not found a single one of them.

My mother has played their sweepstakes for almost 20-years and I grew up watching her return notice after notice multiple times every week. She has won nothing in all that time, not even one of their basic $100 winnings. She's getting older and has felt so horrible about wasting her time and "all those stamps" that I started playing the games under her name hoping to win her even a gift card.
I spent all of my free-time making daily visits to play everything available (while also not winning any of their 'instant wins'). I finally thought I'd saved up 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 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 there is at least one ad popping up every single time you do anything - that's a LOT of money) and to get people to buy their overpriced catalog items (which she has also done). They feed off the desperation of people like my mom who see winning as their only means to financial stability. Rather than doing something rational and making up a dozen smaller but equally meaningful prizes they dump the winnings on one major winner, in what is a brilliant move to make people more competitive. Save yourself the headache and don't even get started.

I have ordered 2 products and didn’t get my savings so they charged me full price plus I had to pay all at once or I would have been charged late fees. My second order took 4 months to receive. I am not very happy and will never order anything again.

My problem is not that I haven’t won anything with token. With so many people involved, one’s chances of winning anything is slim. My problem is with the changes PCH has made in the past 4 or 5 months and, starting within the past month, terribly disappointed and frustrated with the company. I have ordered items from their long lists over the past year. I think my first buy were bath mats that I really like. Gold Coast microfiber bath mats. The tag on the mats state they were made in China, how to wash them, do not put in dryer, etc…but there’s a warning too: FLAMMABLE: (FAILED U.S. DEPT. OF COMMERCE STD., FF2-70) SHOULD NOT BE USED NEAR SOURCE OF IGNITION. No one smokes in my house, but there may be a problem for those who like to um…sit and smoke a cigarette.
More recently is the problem with advertising. It’s why I’m ready to quit PCH. To be fair, I understand that it’s the advertising that helps pay the winners of the big monetary prizes. Yes, what the players buy too. I have ad blocking software on my computer. It seems to have stopped working on PCH games. It 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 ago, I was unable to get onto certain games if the ad blocking software was in use. Now, even with the blocking ON, the video ads are there. It takes time (5 to 15 second) for the ad to ‘load’ before the game or card. The ad itself can be anywhere from 14 to 60 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 30 to 75 seconds for each ad. And now, you don’t get to play those last 2,3, or 4 cards. The ads are distracting…and other favored statements. Today, I saw the same 2 ads. One was 35 to 40 seconds and the other was 55 to 75 seconds. The timing includes the ad ‘load’, video ad, and game setup. I tried playing several different games. The same 2 ads were there. I’m 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. It’s time to stop. I have other things I could do – and should be doing – with my time.

I went to PCH.com website to enter the "free" $2500 per week sweepstakes today. Should be a quick and easy process. But it takes you through all kinds of items that it wants you to purchase (although it doesn't affect your ability to win or lose). I went through 6 or 7 different screens of products, each page reminding me that my entry isn't complete until I "activate" my shopping account. PCH used to be a really fun thing for people to enter back when I was a kid, but anymore, it's just a big scam to get people to buy junk that they don't need. Even the "FREE" item you get from them requires that you pay shipping. I will NOT be trying to enter their sweepstakes again. I don't like strongarm shopping sites. If I want to buy junk online, I can find sites to do that. If I want to enter a sweepstakes, that's ALL I want to do on that site. Shame on PCH.

I called on the first one, and was told that first thing on Monday morning (happened on a Weekend) that he would take care of the first 45,000. I played for a hour after talking with him, and the second one (in Lotto) happened. The call system was shut off for the weekend, so I went to the ASK site and wrote what happened. This is Tuesday, haven't heard from my call or email, no points added, survey already sent and filled out (bet you can't tell what I rated you) and now my Lotto is completely down. I called back, was told the reason my first call wasn't dealt with is that YOUR system has been down and that the Lotto/Keno site is because of conflicts in third party sponsor site incompatibility. Since the complete Lotto/Keno down has happened before to me last year and took you over 3 months to fix and bring up again, I am pretty ticked.

I received an advertisement from Publishers Clearing House and looked at the items they offered for sale. I decided to give it a try and purchased the "Security Lights" since you did not have to send any money now and could make 5 partial payments until paid for. The price was 19.95 plus shipping, handling, processing and tax for a total of 28.96. I divided that price into 5 installment payments and have sent 2 payments thus far. Both on time. Now I am getting a ton of emails and letters in the mail stating, "Total Amount Due 17.36. Payment Due Upon Receipt."
If you go to the payment option on the PCH Website, it will not let you make a partial payment. You have to pay the full amount due. Needless to say, I will continue to make partial payments until item is paid off and then I will never make another purchase from PCH. Nor am I interested in entering their sweepstakes scams. Every time, you enter, they tell you it has been narrowed down that someone in your area (zip code) will definitely be selected and they have mapped out directions to your location. Then for some reason, the sweepstakes is extended or they were not able to contact the winner. Hmmmmm.

I am almost 60 years old and have always dreamed of winning at PCH. I started entering their contests decades ago via snail mail in my 20's always buying magazines from them since I had a chance to win big money. I have spent many hours filling out all of the paper forms and contests and much on magazines, postage and dreams. I never won anything. Now comes the age of computers. For the past couple of years I did buy some of their items. One was supposed to be a wooden shoe holder, but when I got the box it was so light that I wondered if there was anything in the box, showed it to the postal clerk and decided to return it unopened. I did get a few items, an example would be the Bell and Howell lantern that met my expectations for quality, but I spent more on it than if I would have gone to Amazon or Walmart online.
During my time of buying every week or month I did "win" 2 $10.00 checks. After I returned many items, I noticed that I was no longer getting the items to review attached to the contests. Yep, they blocked me. Some time has passed and now I am getting the items to review again, but I just scroll through them, sometimes looking at what they are made of, and have never purchased anything since. In particular, I looked at a checkbook cover with a cross on it. It looked like leather in the picture. You would get 2 for the price of one. When I looked at what it was made out of, the listing stated PVC, so plastic. I believe the cost was $10-$15 for the 2 plus shipping and tax.
Anyhow, for some reason I have never won anymore $10.00 checks. My mind though does have me still entering the contests and still wishing for something more than $20.00 for all of my decades of loyalty. There seems to be a lot of psychology involved here. Like some of the other reviewers I too have noticed that some contests go to nobody at the end of the contest expiration date and the date gets pushed forward. I have also noticed on the Lotto that in the area of where you can check your numbers, I have not been able to find all of the lotto cards that I played. Who would ever know if their numbers matched? These are some of the negative parts of PCH. I have also noticed that online their sites have so many ads on them other than what they are selling that the system runs very slow.
To combat this I use ad blockers, but PCH must have their computer wizards getting around the blockers from time to time and I found that you have to change or update the blocker to remove the ads. Now, the positive part of PCH is the ability to use the computer and enter the contests and play the token games. The token games in particular are good for keeping the aging mind active. They are free and you never win anything, but you play them never hoping to win anything. They do offer $100 to the highest token winner, but sometimes I just look at the high scores for some of the games, wondering if the numbers are even possible.
My recommendation is to always dream of winning one of their contests, but don't plan on winning. One must remember, PCH is a business, not your friend who is going to make you wealthy. They say that winning is free. If you enter the contests and play the games and keep the system truly free, you will never lose a dime but can still have the hopes and dreams of winning.

This is beyond ridiculous, and highly unethical. As many have pointed out.
However, as this is a convenient conduit to vent frustration the question remains - what is the Consumer Affairs site/organization doing to stop this???

I received no money after many searches for 7 years, calls and emails, they denied my claim and I told them they were frauds. Never send me mail again or email but they are relentless.
I consider them a virus and a Trojan horse, and a worm in my computer and have filed them into my trash and have them as a part of the cleaning that my security does weekly, but, they continue to come back. I recently sent them a rather nasty email and they had the nerve to serve up another way to get more games to win the money. It is an algorithm is all I can figure. I have gone deeply and unsubscribed and it stops for a while, but like a bad pimple it returns.

I entered my mother in for the "$2,000 a week for life" contest on PCH.com. A few weeks later, my mother starts getting phone calls and mail stating that she has won. My mother is elderly and believes every word of it. She first paid a "search fee" via mail. Then she was being hit up for "taxes" on the millions, the scammers want $1,200 paid to them upfront. I tell her and tell her it is a scam, but because she was entered in the PCH contest, she thinks it is real. This terrible company should be ASHAMED that they are scamming elderly people. They can try to pretend they are not in on the scams, but my mother does not get online and I am the one who entered her personal info in the "legitimate" site at PCH.com just prior to this mess starting. Nobody had my mother's private information except PCH. I think they may be selling information or have a side "business" of hustling elderly people out of their money.

I always get Publishers Clearing House info just to review. Well, this morning I actually selected a couple items and continued thru the process of submitted my entry and all of a sudden I had purchased the items without knowing how much shipping was or taxes. I tried calling, no one picks up on Sunday's, I tried to cancel online but requires that I have an account number which I do not get till my order comes. They say it's on all communications I get, not true. They also say they expedite orders... so by tomorrow not sure I will be able to cancel.
I hate I can't see summary of an order before I decide... with all costs. Plus I need customer friendly way to cancel an order any time. I really do not like PCH. I expect most people just accept whatever... because it becomes so much work to just figure out what is going on with order especially if you want to change. Do not buy from PCH... not consumer friendly. They provide no easy way to communicate or cancel an order. What a scam.

Hey.

I immediately thought it had to have been a scam so I just talked to the people like they thought they was getting me. One of the guys said, "You never have to pay money out to Publishers Clearing House" and then later on in the conversation he said that I had to pay the money to get the receipt for the claim.
Under my breath I laughed. Now I am hearing that people are getting fake checks in the mail. I never have won Publishers Clearing House and I have been playing since I was old enough to fill out anything because my grandma was always playing. I am now 45 years old. Still have never won Publishers Clearing House.

I have been playing PCH online token games since August 2011. I won about $90 from 2011 to 2013. I only ever won on their Facebook pages. They no longer have any significant presence on Facebook and haven't since 2016. I can't prove it but I think Facebook diminished their presence. I'm currently running two web accounts. I only play games that pay out $100,000.00 or more. I use an ad blocker to kill their commercials and website posting ads. The practical upshot is it saves my bandwidth from unnecessary garbage downloaded and really saves time on hitting their games and then getting out.
I play about 3 hours a day. I've not won anything since September of 2013. That was a $5.00 gift code for Amazon. I might buy something from them twice a year. I play, I think I'm a fool. I dropped 100,000,000. tokens trying to win a $500.00 prepaid credit card. And didn't win crap!!! If it wasn't for the fact that I'm disabled and have nothing better to do with my time I would quit.

PCH is not allowed to run a scam of this magnitude. I have the same frustrations as most of you. I do believe there are loopholes that they use to avoid awarding prizes from their online games! I mean to play a game & then see the object you are tossing, throwing suddenly take a turn when it gets close to the goal-that's rigging! You don't have to order anything to win, that's actually against the law. So to you who are frustrated from ordering items, that isn't going to help you win. With this many complaints they should be thoroughly investigated or have the decency to respond themselves!

This so-called website is nothing more than a ploy to pawn off cheaply made and inferior merchandise at inflated prices; at even higher shipping costs. The games are, as I see them, programmed (rigged) by either very sophisticated software designed to award certain points at given times and virtually never give the player a chance at winning any actual money. There are times when a player even loses points because of their so-called "technical difficulties." That is pure hogwash. PCH management reminds me of carnival hawkers selling snake oil to unsuspecting people looking for a cure. In this case, they falsely raise hopes of the vast majority of their players with their silly games. The use of advertising is relentless, redundant and extremely repetitive creating, for me at least, a very negative attitude toward the advertiser.

Been playing PCH 4 years, they were formed in 1954 but didn't pay any money for 17 years. They average paying 2 million per year, so figure the millions playing versus millions they promise, don't add up. A good example is the Ford truck, ever hear or see it posted won, the houses you are suppose to win, have you saw or heard anyone posted on PCH website that won? They announced in a small town 30 miles from my home, I worked for a utility company, PCH showed a winner of 1,000,000 dollars, even announced the florist they bought her flowers from, I went to florist shop, owner said he knew nothing about PCH and they hadn't been in his shop. I searched our utility records for someone by the name posted, never found anyone by that name.
They even had the street where this took place, I ask everyone that lived on that street if they saw a PCH van making an award, never found anyone who saw them. So you see they claim there are more millions playing PCH than plays lottery, but think about it, if PCH only pays out 2 million per year, Powerball pays out that much every 3 days, so they claim your odds at PCH is like winning money is 1 in 112,000,000. At least Powerball, it's 1 in a few million, and the prizes are extreme in the lottery compared to PCH, $10 $20 winners they post each day, and if you watch 90% of winners are from up east or California. I think they have offices both places and use employees' names and address, also go to FB when they show a winner's name in a certain town, you will never find anybody by that name and if you do they never post anything about winning anything playing PCH.

I have been entering the sweeps and trying to buy things with tokens for 6 years and nothing. If you go to the small print Official Rules, it contradicts itself... First it says: A limit of one online entry per day is allowed per individual and per email address for each separate online promotion unless otherwise specified. Then in the next paragraph it says: You may submit as many entries as you would like for this promotional Giveaway.
So which is it? One entry per day or as many as you like? We could be throwing away all our tokens if we enter multiple times in a day, or not entering more times a day if we are allowed to. The program lets you enter as much as you want, so none of the instructions makes any sense. If you are truly only allowed to enter each giveaway once, then why does the program allow you to do more than that? They need to make their instructions clearer. We have to watch dozens of boring ads in order to win tokens, so the least they can do is be clear about entering their giveaways. This whole thing borders on fraud the way it is worded.

I happened to see a CD for the Drifters and the Platters with all of their greatest hits in PCH catalog pages so I ordered it. It arrived in a nice cover that says "The Drifters" on one side of the front cover and the "Platters" on the other side. I was all ready to send them a check when I decided to play one CD to make sure it was "really" them. When I opened the cover I saw 2 CDs that were blank except for the name of the group and a logo for "Direct Source" which apparently burns CDs for PCH. When I played it I knew immediately it WAS NOT the original group. Looking at the little window when the CD opens it said sung by Georges ** and Jimmy ** whoever they are!!
When I called to complain about this and spoke to "Mimi" she told me she would send another CD pack in 2 to 3 weeks. I told her that wouldn't do any good because it still wouldn't be the real singers and she said it would be. I refused to get another set sent and just advised I wouldn't be paying for this set. After her repeating that she would send another set and my refusals she told me I could give it to charity or keep it. No need to return it. If I get a bill to just disregard it. (You are my witnesses!)
So I asked her what her name was and she hesitated and said "Mimi." Then I asked her where she was located. She promptly asked me "is there anything else I can help you with?" I said, "Yes tell me where you are located". She would not answer the question. Next thing I heard was the original recording of PCH. Grrrr!!

Variable gift cards with so many tokens you have to enter. You can enter all your tokens and never win. It is rigged.
You are also hit with tons of advertisement between each game. They want you to search and use ONLY their search engine every day. Each search gives you tokens but leads you to nothing on the search engine every time you click on something to have to keep searching. That alone they should be sued over! I actually did win a couple of games that was suppose to be a cash prize but it ended up giving me tokens. That is their way of making you think you have won. PCH has been around for years yet the gov has not shut them down. Something needs to be done about it. PCH can not keep deceiving people like this.
Now they have posted odds of winning because they were sued, etc. however their odds of winning are probably zero in all actuality. They also give you a Winner's List but there's no way to contact a winner even if they supposedly won $500. How do you know the Winner's List is not made up.

And no matter how many times you click on the offending action they want you to do, you then have to go through so many hoops. It's just not worth it, you end up wasting nothing but time you could be using for other activities, like cleaning your house, going out to lunch or a movie with family or friends, going to a mall, anything, but wasting time on game that you will never win!
I can't recall the name of the current game they have where you click on a circle to launch a ball to win either a specific amount of tokens or possibly $10,000.00 cash. This game IS RIGGED and my experience with it was just that, the ball literally landed and stopped in the holder that shows I'd win $10,000.00 cash, but what happened next, the ball LITERALLY JUMPED out and landed in a lower level, offering me tokens. I think it was 250, maybe 500. But by all rights, I SHOULD HAVE WON that cash. Then on the football game, you pick a player. He kicks the ball and what happens, right as the ball is heading DIRECTLY between the goalposts, it looks like it has already gone between them, then it swerves and goes off to the left or right of the goalposts! Definitely rigged as far as I'm concerned.
I used to write software and I know that it's entirely possible to make a game "CHEAT" folks out of lives, extra's or anything else in a game. The coders of the games PCH.COM uses SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES for coding games in such a manner. As another stated, the race car and horse race game are 2 more examples of this, you will always come in 4th or 5th, never less than 4th place, yet, I picked a car and it crossed the finish line FIRST, then the game dropped that car back and it came in 4th.
I also ordered 2 items from PCH.COM, paid in full up front, I never got to make payments as they claim, combined my payment as one, 1 item has been shipped thus far, waiting for 2nd item to ship, paid twice for shipping, why can't PCH COMBINE shipments when they TAKE FULL PAYMENT and combine that with shipping so you only pay one small shipping fee instead of 2. Been tracking the package since it was shipped, 4 days later and the FedEx they used for shipping shows the package HAS NOT MOVED at all!
Makes me wonder if I'll ever see the two items I purchased, and they always force you into scrolling through everything, at least FIVE PAGES of product BEFORE you can get the SUBMIT ENTRY, and then they tend to hit you up with a special and you have to go through the same process of FIVE PAGES of PRODUCT again! You should be able to submit entry from PAGE 1 of this, since they always claim: {no purchase necessary to win!}. Another load of malarkey as far as I am concerned. You better off to buy things direct from the manufacturer, as I've actually and literally found the same products CHEAPER there and sometimes even with free shipping!
And that's another thing that gets me, they offer a FREE GIFT or free gifts but you have to ORDER something to get that/those free gift{s}! And then you have to pay SHIPPING on a supposed free gift{s}! What is up with that? If you're sending me something for free, then do it, don't charge for something that should be on their cost, not us, the consumers! My advice is set your e-mail up to put them into your JUNK folder and also BLOCK their e-mail address, then you'll NEVER see their arrogant and deceptive practices to fool you into playing their shenanigans ever again.
