The CuteKid Is a scam

It is a scam.. it's not a fair contest.. I have entered in December 2020 cute kid and my son got 493 votes and today I got to check the winners of December 2020 and except the main winner the other 4 winners have votes less than 400 where least vote winner got 48 votes. Now I can say i'm not falling for this... This is rigged or scam everything. Don't fall for this people.

The cutest kid doesn’t allow little black babies to win. When a blk baby won he only won 25 dollars.

The CuteKid the cute kid contest

I have entered twice now and am very sure it is a scam.

Even if my pictures didn't win for the category, the quality and objective cuteness of the photos I entered were MUCH better than some of the other ‘honourable mention' photos of the same age category.

I am disgusted that they are scamming people this way. It just isn't right. I will not be entering again.

The CuteKid the "free canvases"

I have NEVER RECEIVED my 2 8×10 canvases that I paid $19.95 each for their shipping. There's nothing as far as customer service and no record of my purchases other than through my online banking. What a scam! I NEED my money back. I have a 6 month old son and in trying to get the perfect keepsake I got ripped off instead. I can't believe a company that markets Scholarships for Babies and Children would steal from unsuspecting parents.

The CuteKid they are a scam

This site is a scam. You enter your child only to find other children with less votes win. My own son had 4000+ votes, and the child with 45 votes gets voted in. Its either biased, or the other winner paid a lot more in subscription fees and must have purchased a lot of stuff from their site.

Then they will charge you again and again, but you soon figure out that there's no real result. It's useless, plus it will disappoint you. Dio not get and pay with a credit card to get your money back.

The CuteKid monthly contest

We submitted our sons photo peoples choice contest the last day of March thinking it would be in the running for April, paid the fee and the confirmation said "thanks, look for an email with updates and voting links. I never saw that email and later saw it was in the spam box. When I opened this email it said March voting has ended. So I paid $20 dollars so they could submit it to the month that is already over! When I contacted them they were unapologetic and very as a matter of fact with a tough luck vibe. This contest is a scam. Upon further research about this so called $25, 000 grand prize the winners dont receive cash, but rather a $25k "college fund" which I assume is a way to not pay anything for 17 years... at which time I'm sure they'll be long gone with no more business to go after. Dispite this being a $20 scam I am going to dispute this charge with my cc company as I technically wasnt provided with any services and refuse to be scammed by these people. DO NOT ENTER THIS CONTEST

The CuteKid the cute kid photo contest

The cute kid photo contest is scam. Please don't waste your time and/or money on it. I registered my daughters for the april 2018 contest. One of my daughter's got as much as over 4000 (four thousand) votes after working so hard with my wondeful family and friends but the organisers of the contest got their winner and runner ups from only god knows where. The whole system is completely not transparent. They make it so difficult for anyone to see the contestants with the highest votes (because they know exactly what they are doing) and then they come up with their winners. Well, if you have some money to throw away, then you can give it a try. All the best

The CuteKid multiple charges

I entered my child for one contest and paid the one time fee of $19.95 and now I am receiving emails, 9 that I will be charged 9 times. This is not ok and not right! I have contacted my bank and blocked any charges from thecutekid.com for the current charges that are being attempted and for future ones. I called the listed customer service number and no one ever answers. Terrible site trying to take advantage of people.

The CuteKid December contest winner results

Hello-

I wanted to follow up on December photo contest where I had my daughter entered (Sofia Kmiecik) under People's Choice section and she got a tremendous amount of votes, over 3 thousand to your knowledge. I haven't heard back from anyone or neither did she even get honorable mention on the website. I think it is very unprofessional of your company to act this way where there was no follow up on the results or any explanation of the results. I expect to hear from you soon with some answers as I am very upset.

The CuteKid Contest

This site is an absolute scam . We paid the fee & submitted our son's picture for the December 2016 contest, we shared the post through Facebook every single day on the last day December 31, 2016 my son had 1900 votes ! No other child in the contest had near as many as him, On January 19 (which the contact says it would be posted on January 15 )the winners were posted on the website & not one of the kids that they claim won were in the contest they give posted pictures on kids that didn't participate ! I want everyone to know DO NOT put your child on the cutekid website & DO NOT give them any money because your child will not win . They are using parents to get publicity for theirselves . I'm am very upset because me, my husband, & family work hard getting those votes & my child was never being judged from the start

I was afraid that this was happening . I two entered my daughter into the free people's choice contest for December 2016 .

My daughter had a total of 599 votes which I have documented and I have emailed them several times asking where they post the winners for the People's choice awards . I keep getting a response back with a woman simply saying we apologize for the delay and we will be posting our winners soon .
If you look back on all of the previous months they never actually post a People's choice winner . It's sad because this is the free contest and they promise the winner $500 . I plan to publicly announce on Facebook that it is a scam by tomorrow morning . What a joke and I agree a waste of everyone's precious time .

The CuteKid No reply to my emails

I should have read reviews about The Cute Kid before paying $20 to have a picture of my baby in their contest. I too thought it would be worth it for the "free" canvas picture, but not only did I pay a shipping fee, It is now discoloring after 13 months (out of direct sunlight too). I also made a mistake of trying out their so called VIP for $9.95 thinking I could cancel after a month. However, after writing an email to cancel and never getting a response, I am now very upset and don't know how to get them from charging my card. A warning to anyone considering to join- Save your money and go elsewhere.

The CuteKid Scam

Paid $19.95 for entering my daughter in photo contest and little did I had signed up for VIP Kids club, costing me $9.95 per month. They automatically took the withdrawal after the 30-day trial and wouldve continued to do so if I hadnt noticed. Beware.

My sons was in the cute kid contest and had OVER 350 votes and it’s showing 2 other kids that had less votes win! This isn’t right. Spent $19 to enter it and it’s not even accurate. My son had way more votes than the last 2 kids they have listed on here.

My mother paid for 10,000 votes for my daughter on 04/26/2023 and cutieville took her money but did not give my daughter her votes! They will not email or message me back on Facebook! I have been trying to contact whoever I can to get this issue resolved but no response and this is seeming like a scam to me!

I so wish I would have seen all these sooner! I entered my child thinking oh it's just $19.95 but this morning the emailed me 9 times trying to charge me! I called my bank and asked them not to authorize any charges from this stupid site. I'm not sure if I'll have to do this continually or not but ugh! Wish I never would have done it. Was anyone able to find a contact number for this stupid site?! I emailed them but who knows if they'll answer it.

Don't know how I got on their mailing list but CANNOT unsubscribe! When you click the unsubscribe link it just tells you that you are subscribed for their weekly emails. Ridiculous! Tried to email them direct and it bounced back! I've even marked them as SPAM and it continues to come through!

I entered my daughter in the cute kid contest and they said I would receive a free canvas. I paid $25 just to enter her and all I wanted was the canvas. I never received it and not one time have they tried to get in touch with me. I have tried to get in touch with them but there is no possible way. I think what they Are doing to parents is terrible. They are making millions off this.

I am sorry you all think this contest is a scam because your kid didn't win. I uploaded my twins photo and got an email the next month saying they won for the multiples category. My twins picure is on your website as the winner for the month of August 2015 and we received a check for 500$. There are over 42, 000 pictures and I think by getting all the votes we did from Facebook and just being lucky we won. So the contest is not a scam. We received money.
