I won on the cologate instant awhile back... Haven't received it
I won on the guideposts dream come true instant.... Haven't received it
I won on the hsn instant ($20 egift card)..... Code doesn't work ...

All of these are from eprize. I have contacted them 3 times and still NOONE has gotten back to me...

Anyone else experiencing this from them?
 
Yep! I won Colgate way back in the summer & haven't received it yet. Won a GC from Guideposts & haven't received that either. I haven't won HSN but I did win the ESPN GC from Gather Around the Grill Sweep in Sep that I haven't received. I won a GC from the Mazda sweep in July & just received it last week... so I won't give up on the others just yet. There's one thing I've learned about sweeping...patience to win & patience to receive :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Included among businesses cutting back is ePrize, an Internet advertising firm in Pleasant Ridge that laid off 20 employees, or 5 percent, of its workforce this month, hoping to bolster its financial outlook at a time when many retailers are cutting marketing budgets.

The ePrize cuts come after several years of steady growth, climbing sales and workforce expansions, which brought the company's employment to 350 workers.

Hmmmm....Maybe they figured they no longer needed the guys who just sat around putting stuff in envelopes?? :scratch:

My son won Cartoon Network's Iron Man grand prize back on 9/29 is when he got the email. We printed everthing, got it notarized, and faxed it in according to all rules. It was worth $129.90. We waited and waited. We emailed them on 11/26 to see if prize should have shipped. No response to that email. Found a phone number for the person at GEM group who had emailed winning notification. Actually got in touch with her . Said she remembered his name and would check into it. Didn't hear back. On 12/16 emailed her back again since only got an answering machine at GEM group. Left a messaged but no returned call. On January 2, got email back from GEM group saying that they had tracked packaged and it had been delivered to our back door. Our back yard is fenced in with a dog in the back yard. NO ONE ever delivers anything to back door!!!! But she said that she just so happened to have left over prize which was rare and would get her people to send it out and she would email me when sent. That was the last I heard from her(19 days ago) I emailed her again today after getting an answering machine at GEM group. I would have never believed that Cartoon Network would be this way!!!

People shouldn't do this to children!
 
Wow - that's horrible!! I'll bet the package never shipped in the first place. Why, oh why is it so difficult to get these things shipped out? Like you said, it's especially bad to do this to a kid.

As far as the Gather Round The Grill, I received my ESPN gift card before Christmas. This was the one there were some issues with in the beginning, and I had emailed them and they sent me a confirmation number. So I'd contact them if you haven't received it yet.

I know I must have some wins out there that I'm waiting for :whistle: I actually don't know if I'm even waiting for anything anymore. The only reliable ones these days seem to be the blog sweeps. I received a beautiful package of Watkins products from Thrifty Thoughts today. The owner of the blog, Lori, is a sweetie.

Every day I'm getting more and more frustrated with sweeping. :cry: I miss getting things in the mail/UPS/FEDEX :cry:
 
Yes, it used to be a blast. It was so exciting and a "rush" to win...instants, or anything.

As my old buddy, B.B. King says "The thrill is gone...."

Mu guess on this is that it got delivered to the wrong address. This is not uncommon, it happens here all the time. Neighbors are always getting the wrong package. Luckily they ask me if I saw a delivery on the street and I can tell them who has their package.
