I also received an item from Publisher's Clearing House that I did not order, along with a bill for $30.00. Last month, I entered their sweepstakes with no order enclosed. I have entered their sweepstakes before and have never placed any orders from them, but never encountered any problems. On Apr. 6, I received an envelope from them with a small cell phone charger and their bill. I tried to call them concerning this unordered, unwanted item and I was placed on "terminal hold". Next, I e-mailed my complaint to them and told them I'd be happy to mail it back to them if they sent a pre-paid shipping label. They answered my e-mail telling me they were sorry that I "did not remember ordering" and that I would have to pay to have it sent back or pay their bill. I may be considered a senior citizen but there is nothing wrong with my memory, not when it comes to spending my money, and I am offended by their condescending reply. I have told them to remove my name from their mailing list, but my nephew who works at the post office, told me "good luck", that I will probably keep receiving their mailings. Such a waste, as soon as it comes in the house, it is going in the shredder.
I too have received several items I did not order. We are not obligated to return it if we didn’t place an order, and certainly not obligated to pay for it. I will return it thought and treat them with respect, unlike how they treat the people.
I entered the sweepstakes for publishers clearing house and placed an order for cd's that were supposed to be 4.99 and i ordered 2 of them. When i got the box the invoice said i owe 42.00. I will send this back and never order again if this is how its going to be.
This is FRAUD. PCH contends I ordered something and I did not. If this continues, I will file suit. I also believe that on 4.28.2017, the Sweepstakes will not be paid out.
On april 9, 2008, I received an email thanking me for ordering a sante fe style bag, I went on line to cancel this order that I did not place and they told me it was too late, that it may have already been shipped. today may 10, I received a postcard dated may 5, 2008 notifying me that it was backordered. I thought to myself "great, i'll call and cancel it" I called the [protected] phone number and spoke with a woman who had informed me that my account showed no such order... then why are they sending me mail & email pertaining to it?

Refer to your e-mails of 6-23-08, 6-24-08 and 6-26-08. I have NOT ordered the magazine "Soap Opera Digest" as listed in these 3 e-mails. Do NOT send any magazines, since as I mentioned above, I did NOT order the mazazine. Please confirm you have received this notice.
I have not ordered anything from you, yet you persist in bombarding me with emails and mail to the contrary. I do not, nor will I ever, order from you. Take my name off your list, and do not contact me again. EVER!
Victoria Andrews.
Free laptop bait and switch scam! cough up the macintosh laptop promised and get me off your shared e-mail list! sincerely!

I was sent a wireless doorbell in the mail by publishers clearing house. I never ordered it never gave or talked to any one to give them a credit card #. I't is a wireless doorbell, I live in atownhouse that I bought in 2005 and have to electric door bells on the home. Opened package thought maybe my wife ordered something but she didn't. I am disabled and on a tight budget, need to e-mail or phone publisher's clearing house to send me a self paid package to send back merchandise. This package is out of St. cloud Mn. Thank you Curtis Cifelli
Do they have your credit card information curtis

I ordered what I thought was a three piece rug set from PCH. The price was 39.95. When I received it, it was a very small oval rug and and hall runner. Not at all what I thought I was getting for 40.00. I want be ordering again.
i ordered some tumblers with a marine emblem on them they looked like i bought them at the doller store i will never order another thing from them they are really ripping the public off.
I have ordered some merchandice, about 4-5 weeks ago. It was a fleese blanket for my husbands birthday. I have not yet rceived it. Could you please check on this order. Thank you Ruby Faulkner
well today i recieved this award notifaction letter in the mail saying i was about to be the winner of one million dollars and i need to send them $11.98 for something i know its a scam.
I got email from PCH stating I may have won the lottery up to $450.00 depending on how many winners there were and could expect a check in 5-6 weeks... 3 weeks later I get the same post snail mail letter as the lady above... a scam letter ...identified as from someone other than PCH...with a requirement that I pay the $11.98 for shipping. This timing of this letter was too close to the time line in which PCH so acted I could expect a winnings letter. This needs to be reported to the post office inspector so if you get anything like this please google the address of the United Stats Postal Inspectors assess and pop it in the mail to them with a letter of explanation. The only people who have enough time to p, at these online games are the elderly and disabled- to extremely vulnerable populations. I am dumping Pch today after reading all of these reviews!

I received a form PPDD official entry-order document. It stated to check the envelope for instructions and enclosed silver stickersa.
There was no envelope or sticker sheet included to return the entry form.
It said "The Publishers Clearing House Prize Patrol is prepared to award an incredible $5, 000 a week for life Prize from Giveway #1400! A cash pize of $35, 000.00 from Giveaway #1350 has also been approved and the decision regarding your eligibility for prize amounts in in your hands! See the silver sticker sheet enclosed.
Is this how you eliminate possible winners, by not including the return envelope or the sticker sheet? I have sent everything I was supposed to up until this point. Please advise at your earliest possible time.
I received many invoices, that always respond to your company, for a merchandise I dont received never up-today. I don't want this merchandise now and would not paid for a not received one.
Please not sent more invoices and/or dont sent my name for a collection agency.

I just received an order which I placed some time ago. The payment is already past due upon receiving the invoice. Also the product is damaged and no explanation for handling this type of problem. Now I am faced with a bill past due and a product that's unusable. I would like a number to contact someone regarding this problem.
I am providing the order number [protected].

I got an email from PCH thanking me for my order of a mag or something of Beetles things. This was August 4th/5th.2009. I did not order anything from this place. I have been so disgusted with pch all this year. I get emails everyday and when you try to just do the "entering for the contest of money"' you have to go thru all this marketing selling crap that I never want. PCH has gone to the dogs for sure. I wrote an email. but I did it on the wrong thing. THen this week I got a box from PCH and I wrote it on the pkg with red marker that I did not order anything and do not want it. And returned to sender. If for some way you have taken this money into payments I will not pay you. I will take you to court. I am sick and tired of your crap. . Iss this place so hard up for money that you have to falsify these orders? Or paying someone on comissions that are doing the falsifying? I want nothing from you or yours.
The product I ordered did not work as the add says it will. PCH says it guarentees it's products and I want to send it back but cannot find any instructions for returning merchandise. They seem to make it as hard as possible . Will not be ordering anything else from them.
Received in Mail Sept. 22nd, 2009 a sweepstakes entry with check envelope to be delivered on Sept. 8th, 2009.
Is this why no one wins because their entry wasn't received in time?!
This is not the first time this has happened. Why is there no phone number to contact PCH?
I like a sound off board but do they see the complaints?
I am sick of getting stuff from PCH. It isn't even for me! They make it very difficult/impossible to contact them and ignore instructions on returned mail. They are a vile scurge on the world. Thank you America...another fantastic export!
I received a "how to play guitar" kit, including a tape and a vhs@!
I didnt order it!
And now they sent my name to a collection agency and they are telling me that if I dont pay, im gonna go to court,
Im fawkin 14!

Hello This comment is for Publishers clearinghouse sweepstakes
I was recently notified by one of your officer that I was being sent two round-trip airline tickets, irrespective of the outcome of the sweepstakes winner. But, I am apparently still in the running for that sweepstakes
what he did not tell me was when I could expect those tickets to arrive.
I assume he has my name and contact information. But, to be sure
my name and contact information are as follows

pch.com sent invitation for its sweepstakes for $10 Million Dollars. But when trying to fill out the form, I was diverted to an area to provide a suggestion for creating a new product idea. Once I made up something, the next area detailed how that company charges $15 Thousand Dollars, providing details on how many products/applications have been approved, etc. I was not allowed to get out of that area and never received confirmation that I had even registered. Shame on pch.com...what a scam!
i totally agree, i was diverted as well. i tried numerous times to register, so i give up.
you sent me a letter saying I owe you 17.95 and just a number as to what it is, I have always paid my bills by check I have a nottice from my bank that I sent a ck#484 in the amount of 17.95. Will you please tell me what this is for IEM#[protected]. Maxine E Minor
Why do you consistently send me invitations to submit entries to your many many contests, but then deny me the right to submit my entry? This is becoming very annoying and clutters my in box immensely.
I was contacted by publishers clearing house thanking me for my order and they would be sending my order and billing me for it. They didn't give me the courtesy to tell me what I was supposed to have ordered. I responed to them telling them I DID NOT order anything from them and not to send me anything and not to send me a bill. Today Feb 4, 2010 I recieved a under the bed storage box for womens shoes. Now I can't find any way to contact them to return this item to them. Can anyone give me an address.e-mail, or phone number to contact PCH. Oh I also deleted them from my computer.

I ordered a book from PCH. I got a notification that my Indian Head coins were being sent. I called but it was too late to stop the order. I then had to pay out of my own funds to send the items back to PCH. No reimbursement. No apology.
I also ordered a 4x little magazine about diabetic recipes for my brother in law. I got one issue and never got anything else. It was paid for in advance.
Don't order from PCH. They rip you off and don't even have the decency to apologize or try to make it right.
I receive and ntry or NP73 there was no return envelope in side can I use a regular envelope to return my entry. 674 S. Riverview Ave Miamiburg, Ohio 45342 Mrs. Diane F. Heis Personal ID number [protected]
