Error on your history quiz
On Your History Quizzes there was an error. A few days ago according to your correct answer, John Adams and Theodore Roosevelt both died the same day July 04, 1826.
This is not true. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams both died on July 04, 1826. Theodore Roosevelt was born in 1858. Please correct your records.
It bothers me when mistakes like this are made, as they are untrue and not historically accurate.
Desired outcome: Retract the wrong answer from your History Quizzes.
The picture in a nutshell
publishers say, That there is no purchase required to win, then why when I am told that I'm within their winners search location then they throw up a web catalog, ? yes I know this is a ploy to get you to order, The if you don't they throw up a thirty dollar gift if you order now, I cant afford to order at times. yes they make a hard sell, like your cart is empty, or so much percentage off if you order now, all this kind of stuff tells me, yes you have to order if you even want to be considered for the winner search, even if you are considered your entry is trashed,
Bad request.
Here is the exact message I get in response to my request to redeem tokens, no matter how few or many I am requesting. This occurs even though I often restart my computer first. It happens frequently.
"Bad Request. Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit."
Desired outcome: Let me into your server so I can redeem my tokens.
Amen I get the same message on occasion
Livestock for advertising
I'm convinced that PCH is just farming advertising fees from all their sponsors and we are the livestock upon which this scheme is feeding. Does anybody win anything? Does anybody ever NOT get a notification or junk email that disrupts the task they're trying to do? It's all bells and whistles, snake oil, and smoke and mirrors at best, apparently. I call [censored]. I would love some compensation for the amount of time sucked away from my life already, and I've only been doing this for a very short time. I think it's disgusting and I wonder how these vampires can sleep at night... How does anybody have such a corrupt moral compass that they can just line people up behind the PCH Carrot on a stick with not even a legitimate thank you or actual token of appreciation... Only useless tokens, spent on phoney prize drawings... Stop farming us out for advertisement kickbacks!
Publishers Clearing House $7,000 a week giveaway
This game is rigged I played this time around for the sweepstakes with a phone, tablet, computer entered all the entries, quizzes, mobile apps, and answered all emails even went up in status I'm a firm believer but not so more all this game entails is spam email, spam offers I also completed all Facebook and Instagram offers half the emails and games don't work but they expect you to win all I have won is tokens.
technical support is horrible, and the game is targeted for older people to win which makes sense why would you pay for life for a young payout when the older goes quicker there's a lot of deception still with #pch and if I had the chance, I would sue the heck out of them.
Desired outcome: I want millions back for the deception and time pch has taken from me
Product I did not order sent to me
I had looked at an item on Publishers Clearing house and added it to my cart. I did not complete the transaction as when I looked at the total cost I was not wanting the item. I DID NOT COMPLETE THE ORDER AND CLOSED THE BROWSER. On the website it ask you to pay, which I did not do. I will gladly return the item, just provide shipping information and postage.
Desired outcome: Return authorization or credit to my account.

Fairness
I am beginning to think that these games are a waste of time, I have over 500 million scores and tokens, But am not winning nothing, I know that my tokens and scores are higher than some others, that are getting recognized for their scores and tokens. It took me years of playing everyday to get to where I am in scores and tokens. I would like for you all to take a look at what and how you are doing your calculations.
Sending invoices to my home when I did not order anything. I am requesting that no contact be made.
Sending invoices to my home when I did not order anything. I am requesting that no contact be made... They continue to send invoices when there was no order. It forces me to return to the post office with the invoice labeled: "return to sender." it is dangerous and irritating. I am not ordering, they simply have my address from pass activity years ago. Please stop mailing anything to me, I am not ordering and it is irritating. Ignore is not a solution. Cease from mailing anything to me from publishers clearing house pch! Please. Remove my address from any contact through pch. My address is the mableton, ga post office: home address: 6522 mitchell lane, sw... Mableton, georgia [protected]
Desired outcome: CEASE ANY MAIL TO ME FROM PUBLISHERS CLEARING HOUSE. pch!
The daily scratchers freeze up. Slot tournament constantly freezing and wont play at all.
I like playing the daily scratchers and sweeps, but lately they freeze up constantly. Also the slots tournament is not fun when it keeps rolling and you have to reset all the time.
PCH needs to upgrade the games. Change the scratchers and technicians need to check the games frequently to make sure they are working correctly.
When I put a submission in to the tech board, they ALWAYS say, check the cookies, or 3rd party ads etc. Maybe the games need more attention from PCH.
Desired outcome: Fix the daily games, and the slots
Planting bulbs
I received bulbs (planting) I did not order.
I will not pay for them if a bill is sent.
Thank you.
Desired outcome: Do not charge me
Prizes offered
Rec'd a letter from Official Prize Communication today, 9/24/21 and told to call [protected] and provide ID # [protected]. Never got to providing a number because of hard sale for old folks bracelet. The National Magazine Exchange is nothing but crooks. All they are interested in is trying to sell you some kind of junk. Requirements for staying on their prize list is too much.
Desired outcome: Stop sending me literature and junk.
Your advertisements
I am tired of getting advertisements in Spanish. I don't and won't speak the language. If you do not fix your algorithm I will Uninstall your apps. If I want to learn a foreign language then I will use the app I installed to work on French or Russian. I will never buy a product that advertised in Spanish. I don't need you, you need customers. Don't even try to say it's the advertisers problem, because you control the contract and thus their livelihood.
Desired outcome: fix the advertisement algorithm that supposedly picks based on my interests.
Hempvana rocket tens therapy
I purchased the Hempvana Rocket Tens Therapy pain relief pen on 08/09/2021 and received it a few days ago via USPS. I immediately opened the PCH package and removed the content. I read and followed the instructions the instructions inside the box. I then put a brand new AA battery into the tens unit as instructed. Upon turning on the unit, I began receiving electrical shocks through my hand. The higher the level I went, the more intense the shocks were. And when I tried to apply the tip ( it didn't matter which one of three heads provided) to the area of my skin, there was a "stinging" electrical shock. Since then, I have been unable to use the item. I even tried to put on a glove which stopped the electrical shocks in my hand, but not the stinging sensation on my skin. So now, what is my recourse of getting a refund for this item.
Desired outcome: I would like a refund or credit my account
Can't redeem my tokens to enter for prizes, used to work, now get bad request message on most of pch click onto sites.
Can't redeem tokens and all sites when second click get a Bad Request message.
Desired outcome: Fix it
Your sweepstakes
I keep getting messages from tod sloan thru my email telling me I will win, never seen any prize, now i'm mad, this gets my hopes up for nothing, how dare they play with people's emotions. What are you going to do about this, i've been playing for years, all I get told is are we on the way to your house? Plus your products are a little high in price.
Desired outcome: Email me
The leaderboard has not changed for a whole week and Pch has been told of these issues and has not fixed the problem Sounds fishy to me
My address change
I submitted a change of address months ago and your mail comes to my new address. However when you talk about the possibility of my winning you always mention my old address which is 3713 S Mission Pkwy, Aurora, CO. Your mailings come to my new address which is 10675 W 47th Ave, Wheat Ridge CO 80033. I enjoy the time looking at the information you send and have not won anything in all the tears I have been playing
Desired outcome: Please use my new address
Activation code
I have tried to get to the correct site to enter my activation code for Aug 31, 2021 $5000 a week for life sweepstakes and do not believe one exists! I see many for past sweepstakes and many AD sites that claim you can enter it there. What's up with that? Why no current site? I also fear clicking on, trying, sites to see if they may be the place I seek will add to my unwanted emails. Unsubscribing multiple times, daily, does not seem to slow them down. I can see that being a problem for most of us.
Thank you for this minute of your time.
SML
Desired outcome: Not really expecting an "outcome".
