      That's awful! It just seems the experiences with eprize gets worse with each passing month. ( Except for the new members who seem to be winning & have been treated okay by eprize, so far ) That's a positive- at least.

       This past week I emailed eprize to ask them " If I had been blacklisted by there company for some unknown reason". **Note: I've won 1 small prize from them the 3 years I've been sweeping**  They emailed me back saying " We/Our company does not have a blacklist, but eprize has more people entering their promotions".  Of course, I'm not sure I truly believe this statement ( still somewhat suspicous of them on this matter ) The customer Rep. did not sign or give their name in the response.

     The point is.... Something screwy is going with them, in my opinion.

         I am glad to hear that you at least got your tote bag, but sorry to hear you had such a " let down" by eprize. It just seems really unfair.

    Fortunately, there are a lot of other sweepstakes prizes out there to be won. Most sponsors/promoters are competent & fair.  

      May your next win be soooo huge that it will more than make up for your bad experience with eprize.

    How do they know who is a new member - can they track where we come from?
    Live life,as if. As if all of your dreams have been realized, your castles built, your projects created the fire started in your hearth and warming you as you enjoy the fruits of your dreams the brass ring resting on the mantle, the seeds of your desires flourishing as full fledged plants oxygenating your very air.

    Be an architect; visualize your castle in the air clearly then moving right in!

      Don't know if they keep track or know who the new members are but most everyone has noticed something fishy has been going on with Eprize since the beginning of 2009.

      The reason for such suspicions are based on comparisons of past & present observations from the ST website postings. 

       Over a year ago- There use to be a lot more winning posts by members from eprize distributed equally across the board from all members. For the 2009 year most of the eprize winners have been 2009 & 2008 members ( maybe with 1 or 2 exceptions ) but rarely for 2009 year has there been a eprize winning post from members who joined in 2007, 2006 etc. As stated previously, this was not the case last year.

     There is no definite proof of this unethical conduct by eprize, but it's obvious & transparent enough that Mr. Sweepy has to take extra measures for the  New sweepstakes by eprize to posts alternate links to a eprize promotions.

      It's great for the new members but unfair to others, if there's any truth to eprize's questionable business practices regarding sweepers.

      Other members may have a different view point but these are my observations & opinions on the matter.

    Maybe this will help clearify & bring some understanding about Some of the eprize grumblings. There are other apparent issues  with eprize besides this one. All one has to do is read the posts to see the other troubles members are having with them.

      We can only hope it will get better & corrected in the future, because eprize seems to be promoting a lot more sweepstakes this year. Thank goodness- there are other decent, fair & competent promotions/marketing companies providing sweeps.
