I can't be sure, but it seems as though my account [Birdland007] has been suspended, perhaps by a complaint from someone. Under no circumstances do I use profanity nor do I agree with the many insulting antics that go one with some members of this game club. The suspension seems to have occurred after a bridge game with an opponent named SeaBisquit, who very promptly put in the computer in place of my partner after my real partner left the game. He didn't allow a moment for my partner to return. So I refused to bid. Eventually with 4 real partners partaking in the game they would be able to boot me from the game. But I didn't stay to see the outcome. If stalling is justification for suspension, then there ought to be a reciprocal penalty for deliberately replacing someone's partner in the game with a computer. The computer cannot bid properly. I am incensed that my account has been suspended. And it is very clear that SeaBisquit did this deliberately because I asked who replaced my partner with the computer, and he said "Who do you think?" ... as if tough; what are you going to do about it? Please consider suspending SeaBisquit with his orange-ranked score for inconsiderate unsportsmanlike conduct, not me.

While playing Scrabble against the robot my game will freeze up. I have not had this problem in the past. We have verified that Java is installed and working. Do you have any suggestions on how to solve this problem?

Pogo knew there was a problem with the "upgrades" but they chose to ignore complaints and continue. Now most of the games do not load or work properly. Customer Service tries to blame everyone else. They are taking money and not providing a service.

When you first check in this fill pages with the clap trap about their rules and regulations regarding spamming, they won't tolerate they say. However, every day the spammers are in their, and the new players who don't know any better think they will get something for free, tokens, gems, etc. All the spammer wants is credit card numbers and players account info. Pogo says report them, they have a box for abuse reports, which includes spamming. However, they do not remove the spammer, as they say they will. Spammers brag that Pogo is supplying them with tokens and gems. The spammer gets a piece of the action. Whats so hypocritical, is that Pogo says they will suspend the player who buys and uses these FREE tokens and gems. Dozens of players have WON money prizes, but never receive it.

Pogo is gay and no one should play it for prizes. If your looking for fun games, deffinately the place you should go to cuz if your looking for a prize... OPEN YOUR EYES! They won't just give away $4999 to you. They probably only do that once a year. Everyone always gets an email saying that you cheated or something like that. I have one the jackpot before it was at $4999. Not even joking. Guess what I got back 3 weeks later. "We are sorry but we have detected a 3rd party device and have found you have cheated." Well it said something like that. Don't buy their scams it's really ###ed

I got my Mastercard bill today and there is a "online games popg/ea.www.ea.com.ca" charge of $46.23. I have not been on the pogo website since 2009 and certainly didn't authorize this charge to my account.

In order to win the challenges I am not able to go into the option setting and change anything. I have been a club Pogo member for years. Why do I play if I can not get credit for it?

Everywhere I look online I see complaints about Pogo. I'm totally on board with that. They've actually stolen a year of paid membership from me. I haven't been banned - they just lost my membership. I suddenly found myself out of Club Pogo a year prior to the end of my paid membership, and yes, it is IMPOSSIBLE to get anyone to talk to about it, so I'm just out my money and my gems. If anyone knows of a class action suit, please post it. I'm not rich. I can't afford to have money stolen from me by a huge corporation.

I could be wrong(I doubt it) but was that account not used to prey on children online?
