A couple weeks ago I created a free account at www.pogo.com. It's a game site ran by EA games that boasts you can win money by playing. They have all kinds of games from words games to puzzles and it's incredibly addictive. However, though I constantly see names popping up saying winner...... I haven't won anything yet. :( I was wandering if anyone actually has won anything at www.pogo.com?

I've been a member since 2001, so far I have won nothing but screen savers and wallpaper. I sent my cousin a free pass to club pogo, she won $5 while on her free pass lol.

A lot of people that I have talked to have said the same thing. However, the games they have on there are pretty fun. So, I don't know.... I might keep playing if just because of that. Thanks for the response.

I did win $20.00 on January 2004 playing Fortune Bingo. I was working on getting the Badge for the that week. It did take like 2 months to get paid, but they did send me a Check in the mail. Also my hubby won a nice Pogo Mug in October 2004 and it was mailed in a few weeks to him. But we haven't won anything since then. But I don't really look or play to Win I enjoy the site for all the games and the nice people I meet in the chat....

Just remember that you might add them to your friends list, but in the mean time they can also block everyone from following them as everyone would ask questions..You can block all members if they are a paying member...Also as far as Pogo using Fake names...I don't think EA Games would want to lose there license or business as they have to report all winners to the IRS and also the Feds and Govt. watch any give aways. All contest like that are really watched as there has been so many scams in past years with other big companies....When you win the Jackpot Pogo sends you a W-2 to fill out as you have to give your SS # so you can pay the taxes on it...They can and do check your SS# to besure it is you.. I even had to fill out the W2 just for $20.00, that is also why it takes time to get the money.....

Ive been a pogo member for years and have never won anything but wallpapers and screensavers. Although lately, I have been adding some of the winners names to my friends list to find out more about them...seems like quite a few of them are new or dont exist at all, Is pogo making up winners and scamming us? lol

I also like playing on Pogo, my favorite is popit and it has a jackpot prize and i played it faithfully every time i had a chance too and have never won anything yet. I am hoping someday i will. lol But seems like if you do win they do pay so thats great news. Goood Luck hopefully it wont take you as long to win as others.

I've been a member of Pogo.com since August 2001. Never won any money. It's nice to hear other people haven't either. I also don't play to win...just play when I get bored. It'd be wonderful to win that 4,999 dollars though.

I have belonged to pogo since 2001 as an unpaid member until christmas of last year when I upgraded to Club Pogo. I have won nothing more than a wallpaper or a screensaver, however its cheap entertainment for our family thats y we play there. Also we do have friends there.

Same story here lol, been a member over 7 years as well, all I have to show for it are wallpaper and screen savers....The games are fun though, but I most likely will not be renewing my Club membership this year, too dang expensive for me.

I've been a member on pogo for about 4 years. I've never won anything, but I have come across people that have. Sometimes I see them talking about it in the chat section. I'm sure people have won money on there, but I'm not one of them. So far! I play on Pogo because it's fun. It would just be a bonus if I actually won any money.

I haven't play games at pogo yet. But I have play at splashspot.com I have won a couple of small prizes and also I have 40 bucks in splash cash. I can exchange it for a prize in their store. You just play games, win points and then use that points to buy raffle tickets or bid on auction. The more points you have the better chance you have of winning stuff there. Of course I am only a free member so I only win a little and I don't play there much anymore. But if you are a paying member you get a chance to compete for better prizes. I don't know about Pogo, but I like splashspot.

I have been a pogo memeber for about 7 years and haven't won any money. I have gotten the download and screensavers. Which I never bother to check out. I keep hoping that one day I would win something, but nope. I used to be a part of club pogo but then they raised their price and I didn't renew.

I have been with Pogo for about 6 years, but I have not won anything. I give up on winning. I just go there for the games. I love poppit & bowling! I am not a paying member. Though I must say when pogo has their promo's to become a member for a certain amount of time, and you get to have the perks of a member.

I have never won money on pogo, just 5 gems & wallpaper so far. Recently there was a $4999 winner from mahjong so I added his name to my friends list to see if he was a real person. I didn't chat with him, but he has been back on playing mahjong and other games since the win. If you would like to check out Club Pogo send me a message back here and your pogo user name and I will send you a 5 day pass for free. If your addicted to the free games, you will surely love being a club pogo member then. There are even more games that free members can't play along with badges you can get.
