Funny, but after a morning of wasting time trying to get the stupid pch.lotto site to work I was again asked to "search". So being sick of these damn searches to enter searched "Pch.lotto website sucks!" And voila! The most fruitful and entertaining search I 've done!

I disagree with u guys... its not about how long you have been signed up to the site or just by ordering thing... thats not whats going to make u w. they look for everyday timely enties... so if do a couple of them each day and then stop the other days then dont still expect to be on a winning status. they also look at the number or days altogether... its a certain amount of days they are looking for... if u give up.. dont come talk # about it so everyone can see u havent been trying enough.. I want to win... I need to win. so if it takes me to get up evertime a email come to my phone... I will do it... my messages are nothing like u guys I think I might be doing ok until april 30 for the superprize... those who give up... don't recieve a thing... the choice is up to you guys... and have aliitle bitmore faith and dedication then u have nothing to stop you! god bless you guys!

Listen I've been on top of entering everyday getting pch emails with 10 enteries and i do them all.Also im 4 × a RED DIAMOND VIP. Im a pch app.pch lotto. Pch quizzes. I redeem.millionsin tokens and im not winning anything big or small. 18 years fella . So yes there's people like me who give or do there best everyday. The random pick isn't fair to the people who've proven loyalty to pch for many years. Seems we are forgotten and that's wrong. Ive put in to win even a vehicle so many times to watch someone winning who already has a newer vehicle. Time before last the person won a new vehicle and had a 100k RV parked in there driveway too.. My vehicle is old and rusted ..why cant good people like myself win anything ? Staying positive and 🙏 to win all the time but I'm human i do get disappointed ..✌

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.

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!

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!
