I'm new to pogo. When do people turn in the tokens for the cash prizes??? I have seen people with 3 million tokens. How come they don't enter drawing?
Welcome to the forum! some ppl like to collect the tokens as a sign of accomplishment or they are saving up to turn them all in at once. I did that once, turned in a bunch of tokens (and I mean a bunch) but still didn't win anything :'( :'( So ppl have their reasons, i guess, but I will always turn mine in eventually. Good luck and happy posting!
also usa and canada can only win prizes all the rest of the world cannot.
I been with pogo about 5 yrs now I used to turn mine in all the time. one time I put in more then xx million didn't get nothing
I had an old name and I cashed in 8 million tokens (before I knew about double browser and token dumping)
Needless to say, since i am not a pogo employee, i didnt win the $50.
Thanks for replys :o
..

pogo employee's can not win money on pogo.
I will never turn in my tokens due to the fact that I know that i WONT win. I like to keep my tokies going up anyways. It makes me feel as if i've accomplished something. :P
No. i think that ONLY pogo employees win the jackpots, so that way it looks like people win the $, but really pogo doesnt have to pay anything.

it's not JP's to them it's bonuses for doing a good job
maybe I should start collecting "pics" of winners and see if there are any doubles
good idea, you could type the names in a text file and do a "find text" to see if any repeat, but that would be lots more work than taking screenshots, lol
My mother in law won a 25$ Walmart giftcard and she got that in the mail. I cant say I know anyone who won CASH and was mailed a check... but I know she got her giftcard.
EA is a HUGE company. It doesnt seem like they would do all this just to lie about little bitty jackpots. $5k isnt that much money... especially to a company like Pogo and EA. Think about how many people are PAYING to play the game...
not me! lol, I only have a free account. so if i win, it's like FREE MONEY! ;) :D :D ;D
Don't forget to claim your winnings on your income tax. :P
I think the cutoff is $1000 in the US. Anything over that you have to pay taxes on. ;)
I was in a room with someone who won the jackpot once. The problem was that she was from the U.K. Needless to say, she was uber-pissed. That leads me to believe that mainly people in the U.K. are the only ones to win.
i thought it was $2500, well here in Pa if ya win more than $2,500 on the lottery you have to claim it
I'll have to see if I can find a clarification on it. ;)
