Reviews and Complaints

This concerns order # [protected] 2 05468. This happened to me also. In June, I was told I ordered greeting cards WHICH I NEVER RECEIVED. When I made payment for jelly beans that I DID order, they applied part of the payment to payment of the cards. I called, and also sent a letter telling them that I never received the cards and that I wasn't going to pay for them. Lo and behold, today (Nov. 14th) I received a pkg of greeting cards in the mail. I DON'T WANT THEM, I REFUSE TO BE CHARGED FOR THEM AND I WANT INSTRUCTIONS ON THEIR RETURN AND CANCELLING THE CHARGE FROM MY ACCOUNT. i also want my name and account closed and removed from your mailing list.

To whom it may concern:

I have made quite a few orders, many of which were flowers for planting. These are the flowers that did not come up:

Wildflower Naturalizing Tulip Blend Set of 12 /with 12 free
Apricot Queen Rose
Lavender Mountain Lilies - 60 bulbs
Fragrant Freesias - 50 bulbs - 50 free
Wonder Flower Bulbs - 20 bulbs (chincherinchees)
Miss Saigon Dutch Iris - 50 bulbs
Blushing Bride Hibiscus Tree

Please send me replacements for these plants, whenever the time is right for planting them. If you don't have replacements, then I would like my money back.

Thank you,
Hannelore Treu

i search daily but never win anything big scam it seems

I agree with all of your texts.

I don' get my card number or PIN number to use my 25 00000 dollar on wonrewards.com

PCH with their crooked contest and garbage products that can be bought elsewhere
cheaper. The Feds should fine PCH millions of dollars for the tactics they use and unfair business practices

PCH products are crap anyway, you can buy the same products elsewhere much cheaper. PCH should be fined by the federal government for fraud and deception with their
contest and products!

why cant u refuse a feature partner offer if there is no skip button? then wen u go to previous page its what your have played. then the offers are the same ones over and over again

i have been doing this for about 10 years and now i think this is it i think it is a bunch of bs after all paid up no more so pch can got to he doulbel hocky stix

IF YOU HAVE EVER NOTICED - ONLY THOSE AROUND THE NY AND MICHIGAN AREA WIN THE SWEEPS.

Well I am not doing pch any more i entered every day for 6 months bought stuff off them and nothing I realize it is like the lottery but I am tired of wasting my money on something immpossiable.I am a single mom with 3 kids and only pplwho win are old women PCH IS A JOKE!

For MRSNUTTY: The time to think of your baby's sake is BEFORE you get pregnant!

I HAVE to win for my cat's sake!

If you want PCH to update your address, just buy some of the crappy stuff and put your new address in the mailing address when you order it. They will never lose your address after that. I use to get 15 USPS sweesps entry packets per week. Now they have my email and I get over 15 email entries per day!

I got ya beat, I've been entering the PCH contests since 1968. During that time I have moved six times and been constant in my entries and now that I can do it on the computer at least 30 time per week. Two years ago I won a $10.00 gift card so I can't say I never won anything but for the number of entries versus the returns, well it is like flogging a dead horse!

Im just really disappointed cause i enter several times a day and its been 18 years now folks . I enter on a constant bases not a 1 time 2 times a month enterer like some of these big winners have gotten away with and win. Anybody who's entered like me and not be disappointed wouldn't be human. Fig how many winners there's been in the past 18 years I've entered ? 100s of thousands perhaps ". Its not that im lacking in entering its just im not being picked .That's why random pick isn't quiet fair cause people playing for a week could become rich while people like myself who's been loyal for many years gets egg in the face over and over and over. I'm not even winning small cash prizes ? Token redeem rewards I've been putting multi million in coins every time when i redeem tokens PCH im not winning anything. I'm not here to hate on PCH. Im here to maybe get heard get noticed by PCH .. Another huge winner 10-31-20. Congrats .. Im still entering PCH.

my business was looking for form name earlier today and was informed of an online service that hosts a lot of sample forms . If you have been needing DD 2946 also, here's a http://goo.gl/d1l9Xy

Haven't been able to redeem tokens for the last 4days .gift cards are experiencing. And cant .use tokens.

Every time you sign up on big five million play well i kept getting tthe same return and no way to complete the signup also a notice from google that the page was being directed in a manner so it could not be completed, very sorry way to do business.

I have been playing the games on pch.com for ever and I haven't seen any numbers I played in 1 full week, what's going on? nor have I seen the winning numbers for the games posted they all say game not played yet and no numbers recorded

Pch.com emailed me on November 3 saying that I had ordered FBN Chocolate. I replied to the email but it said that I was to email this website to cancel the order. I never ordered anything, just entered the sweepstakes.

I trie to bay by the computer and it shome the tinds and I pounch the iten and nothing happen wy please call me now at [protected] and expleindme wou to due.thankyou

Spoke with a telephone receptionist and she said she fixed it. Someone sent 2 copies of the same issue and it ended there. Have not heard anymore and have not received and more of the orders.

At this time I am requesting a full refund as I do not need this magazine anymore the puppy is now almost 3 yrs. old and I did a find job without the help of this magazine.

For years now Publishers Clearing House emails me and through self entry I try to enter the 10,000,000 sweepstakes. They know that's what everybody justs wants to do. They email me endlessly about 5000 a week for life. But the thing is is that when you go to enter they have a progress meter on the top of the page, but it's goes to 7/8 of the way they pull up there endless ads and you click skip and it just loops with endless ads to no end. Your whole purpose investing that much time is for the sweeps that you never get into but their deceitful and down right lying ### state that no purchase necessary. How are they getting away with this for years. I'm not interested in buying anything from them.

I have a problem play PCH game where you can play to when tokens and prizes entries it always freezes up on me and sometimes don't give me tokens it discussing when I'm trying to when prizes I've been getting mail since 200 and a loyal player and spend lot of money ordering hopeing for a win but hasn't happened and I am thinking of giving up been to long for me to keep this up and not appreciated for loyalty so I'm am trying to be faithful to PCH but ard to do when I can't even order in line too ple check your apps I can't play if it won't let me play!

On January 25, 2012 I received two small boxes from Publishers Clearing House that I did NOT order. I have never even been to their internet site! They contained some small sample of something you rub on your car headlights and some kind of plastic egg holders that I am not even sure of what they are for. I called their customer service number (obviously in India) and the lady insisted that I ordered these junk items on 16 January via the internet. She called me a liar (practically) when I said I did not. They don't have my credit card number, of course, but had the nerve to put an invoice in the box due for about $33.00 for this junk in February. I will not pay it and I am not going to the post office and pay out of my pocket to ship this junk back to them. If they have the nerve to try and collect this small sum from me and attempt to damage my credit rating, I assure you I will have my attorney file a suit action against their unethical ###.

I have spent hours trying to resolve the Publishers Clearing House disaster my Dad has created in his efforts to WIN! He is 96 years old and is sure this is the answer for his entire family. His recent stroke makes it impossible to reason with him not to enter anything. They are receiving items called "collections"; coffee, coins, nuts, etc. These items are very expensive and are not ordered or reordered. There is no way to contact this company online and they have limited Customer Service hours. Trying to do anything online with their website quickly takes you to the window to enter the next contest. Up pops a smaller window giving you the option to click Cancel or Continue. Neither of these takes you out of the Enter site, just back to the Enter window. The only way I could get out of this cycle was to delete the web address showing in the address bar and type in the "google" address. Amazing trick to keep you in their clutches, you can't get out! My Mom is frantic worrying about all the collection notices and large invoices for items they never use. I have been returning these items and telling her not to worry about a ding to their credit report. It is really sad that we will have to resort to diverting their mail to our address or to a PO Box using a Limited Power of Attorney. Publishers Clearing House will just keep losing money trying to continue the trap of this elderly couple.

i ordered a wrist blood pressure meter which did not work legitimately at all., NO systolic pressure registered nor pulse rate In fact it even took the blood pressure of the air! I, suspecting foul play - made in China where else?, decided to run it without wrapping it around my wrist after it failed around the wrist, Even so, it gave out an obviously phony diastolic reading. If one were to take a decision based on this piece of JUNK, say lowering a bit one's blood pressure medication, this decision could be a fatal one. Of course, I have refused to pay for this toy. Accordingly, now I am expected to incur in the expense and the bother to return this piece of JUNK, which is very difficult for me to do since I am disabled, hemiplegic, precisely due to a stroke caused by hypertension.

I agree with the complaints this person has. I have had the same thing happen to me,saying i have ordered magazines that i never received and than trying to collect for the specific amount.
I have been turned into a collection agency for one and i have never received a copy.Been many more instances.
Will never order again from PCH

I completely agree that this is a SCAM. I have no idea how they got my cell phone number a few months ago. They fed me beautifully coated lies that I'd be charged $59.80 the 25th of each month until the full amount was paid off and I'd have 5 years worth of magazines. I fell for it, thinking 'Okay, I'll get five years worth of reading for less than a grand and to top it off I'll get a nice Geneva watch (which they told me I would also get).'
The company didn't charge me on the 25th but about a week after. I thought 'That's fine since it's the first payment.' Then about two weeks later I was charged $59.80. I thought something's wrong here, but I decided to let it run for a few more weeks. As I thought i got charged $59.80 the following week along with an amount of thirty something dollars. I called them up right away and disputed the thirty-odd dollars. They said that they couldn't return that amount because it was through a different company. I understood, but the next day I had $59.80 returned to me, but just to have it taken back out along with another $59.80 the next week. I said that's enough and called my bank and told then the situation. I got only about $120 back from the company, not as much as they took out, but something. I cancelled my card, and attempted to contact the company on the number they provided me with. To my astonishment when I called, I got a message that said "No one can answer your call at the moment, please call again later." I tried calling back for TWO AND A HALF HOURS when I gave up and said screw it. I'm getting mail from them now saying that I have a balance due of so and so. I'm trying to get this settled out, if someone could inform me of whom to contact to resolve this, it would be much appreciated.

I also fell victim to this scam, they said they would take 59.80 out of my account on or around the 25th of the month, its 2 months they have taken 5 payments already, I cancel my account so they can't get anymore, after they took the 2nd payment I called them and the woman who I tried to talk to was very rude, when I tried to talk she would talk over me till I finally screamed at her then she hung up on me. I'm sure I'll be hearing from them when they realize they can't steal anymore money from me! can't wait for the call, I will do everything I can to bust them

My boyfriend actually did fall for this scam, and signed up with these people. IT IS COMPLETELY FALSE! He received 3 magazines total and they have taken almost $100 out of his account.

Thankfully he switched accounts to where he has no more money in the account that they know about, but every month they attempt to take out $71 dollars. They call and harass him for not paying, and when he told them he did not have the money to continue to pay them, they were actually MEAN to him, telling him how now that he has an attitude with them, they are not going to give him a break. He put me down as a reference and they are calling me now, harassing me! I called back to complain and then woman helping me told me to hold while she figured out the problem and then hung up on me! Unbelievable!

Take this as a warning PLEASE, if "Publisher's sweepstakes" calls you, IT IS A SCAM, please do not fall for it the way we did. You type in the name of this supposed magazine company on the internet, they are no where to be found, their number is not listed, and the BBB has never heard of them.

Yea I am a member, and you always see on tv that they show up at people's houses, but they really are probably just actors. I am unsubscribing with them because I think it is just a stupid game, and oh it just so happened that the month I joined, the winner was going to be from maryland, yet there website says we have no idea who or where the winner will come from because it is totally random? ha they are fake.

I have been playing the Publishers Sweepstakes contest for about 7 years now in which they always make it appear I'm on the verge of winning.At times it even sounded like I won a substantial amount of money only to realize I was mislead or misunderstood because the wording was tricky. I am now officially tired of playing their games and will no longer do business with them or play their contests. And I wonder, has anyone actually ever won anything from them? I somehow doubt it.

I have been receiving phone calls from several phone numbers [protected] and1-[protected] saying Congratulations! you've3 won 5.5 MILLION DOLLARS, from Publishers Clearing House! Please call the above number and ask for Mark Johnson to confirm your address so we can send the courier over and you can claim your prize! However you'll have to pay a fee before we can process your prize!They are very insistent I call the number, right now, and I mean ASAP!
I contacted the local Police department Fraud unit and they informed me there are so many scams out there they cannot prosecute them as these people are very slippery and there is not enough hours in the day to take them all out.There is no defense except to hang up when these IDIOTS CALL! Just do it, save yourself a lot of aggravation and certainly a lot of your money from getting ripped off by these scammers! Remember there is NO FREE LUNCH!v HAD< NEVER WAS! I hope this he tget ripped off! Thanks!

Received video from Danielle Lam stating that I had won 1 million dollars and new GMC truck. Team was to deliver 6 different times and each was stopped until I paid fees ($200 - $10,000). She said that every winner had to do the same. Sent photos, videos, passport of her and Dave Sayer to prove who they were. I sent $28,175 to her in 3 months.
