      I've been entering PCH's contests (PCH.com/Publisher's Clearing House) for 17+ years and I'm currently a 12-time winner of PCH but this review isn't about my "small wins." This review is about PCH's unethical practices of allowing malicious and dangerous ads (both video and banner advertising). Until recently PCH had let its customers use an adblocker (both DNS and HTTPS-based adblocker tech) due to the fact that I know some (if not all the ads being displayed) of the ads are disguised to contain some sort of malware (spyware, trojan, keylogger, etc). Now PCH is displaying an "adblocker notification" which is now blocking/interferring witch PCH's customers and contest entrants from entering the contests...this is a bad business practice (in my book should be illegal) since advertising should not be forced on it's customers in exchange for a contest entry. The BBB should take a look at this and investigate PCH again since PCH is up to their unethical tricks again...the malicious advertising being forced should be another civil lawsuit (possibly criminal since this is allowing a cybercrime to take place)

      Hi my Names *********************** i been doing pch for a while ,In febuary i was doing lotto i match all the lotto ***** that i circled it was all 8 i had to called pch and find out if i won they said i didnt because My name and the 8 ***** i hit wasnt in there system i called support the transfered me over to tech the said i wasnt in there system my name and the 8 ***** that i hit.I also wrote down when they did the drawing and the tech person told me i had to send them the information i told them they should be able to check it for me these guys kept telling me send when the drawing was and the information that i won but i kept telling tech they should be able check it for me but i got no further than that.I also called them i was having issue with the app on my phone and website i also told them it needs to be up dated they just told me the tech person if i cleard cookies i told them i did. Everytime i call with the app and website they tell me clear cookies. One thing i notice they need to update there app and there web page because i notice there winners are the same people on the web page.app dosent update on my phone. So these guy have no customer service.They also need quit telling people there going to win because its not true because its a sweep stake pluz i dont like there slogan if your in it to win because i been playing everday for years and years and still nothing. I think there something wrong with there system. I think it wrong of them to say if you hit all 8 ***** you win the superprise i keep hit lotto all 8 ***** i have not seen the money. If you look on utube they talk bout how you win lotto if you match all 8 *****. These guys need to be thorly investigated because i know i hit all 8 ***** threw out feb and into march and they said my name and the lotto ***** didnt come up in there system.sound fishy to me.

      I have been playing lotto, games for many years now. In the most recent I have WON a total of $525. A couple of 5$, $10 and then $500 for getting the ball number.Yes I'm on their site!I won't do the survey's for possible SCAMS! or anything that moves me to a third party sites!You need to pay attention to all the small print on everything you do especially on-line!They're pricing on items show an * means shipping and tax added.

      Before I started playing pch I was in a mental place in my mind were medical issues had me wishing that I was no longer on earth. I was tired of waking up every day and only having to thin about how tired I was of living and how tired I was having to wonder why I was even here on earth so long having to deal with the same issue every single day. Pch allows me to dream hope and once again believe in myself. I've never in my entire life have felt so whole and relevant . Win or lose. I got something here I couldn't find anywhere else Myself!

      Very questionable business practices. They offered $30 redeemable coupon, and did not apply the coupon to the order. But instead, they added another item I did not order to my list. Shipping charges are outrages, and just another way to scam customers

      The Survey's are annoying, intrusive, inappropriate, and shouldn't be an option to be entered into to win any Prizes, nor should it be basis for a "set group" of individuals to win.Repeated questions about my sexual orientation, voting practices, income, demographics, Zip Code, Religion, Ethnicity, Birth year, or age responses shouldn't make me unqualified or remove me from winning actual, real prizes from PCH.com The third party advertisements and websites that PCH are linked to have suspicious, disturbing pictures and links on their page that are harmful, and can be easily clicked on, before scrolling all the way down to the skip button in order to get to the rightful page.
