So I played this game and it said Congratulations.   I even filled out the winner claim form that the next page takes you to.  That was 4 days ago..... Still NO email confirming the win.... I emailed the sponor, and yep .... NO ANSWER BACK!!!!    So much for that instant win....  Guess Lidarkside is right when she says, "you dont really win until you recieve the prize"......

Was it an ePrize instant or another JA-run instant?  I know ePrize always sends an email confirmation, but I've had quite a few from others where I didn't hear anything until I got the prize.  It doesn't sound like an ePrize one, since they already have all your information and you don't have to fill out anything when you potentially win.  So, give it time and see if the prize comes.  Check the rules to see when they send out prizes so you have an idea of the time-frame.

The rules said potential winners will be notified after you get a winning screen.....  Well 4 days later... Nada...  This is a 1st time for me since entering sweeps that I didnt get the email immediately after the screen says you win!!...    It just pisses me off though becuase here we are doing our part and going to their website and entering their promotion and following all their rules in doing so... but when you win it would be nice to hold up your end of the bargainnnnnnnnnnnnn

Oh well off to the next promo....

Well, you never know.  You may still get it.  So, forget about it; and if it does show up, all the better! Smile

 sunny LDS is right. Don't give up yet. That prize might just show up on your door step. Can you tell us which instant it was in case some one else has had the same experience or what to expect if they get a winning screen.

P.S.  It's great to see you here. You have been missed.

Hi pmeek Waving

It was the WINNER EVERY HOUR sweep......

So, we'll see if it shows up.. I did fill out and submit the claim form... I'm just bummed because I never got the email like i normally do when winning from them on an instant... and the rules said you will notified if you're an instant winner immediately.... 

Anywho, so dang good 2 back in the groove of things here at SA.... Love this site.... sunny

Okay, it is my understanding from another winner that you won't get an email verification of winning; but your name should show up immediately afterwards on the winner's list here:

For me, I've won several IW's that said the email would be sent & it never showed...but I still got my prizes.  I'm sure you'll get yours too!

Thanks LDS...  The name is there.... but i was going by the rules where it clearly states "potential winners will be notified immediately with an email".... Just like all their other instants ....  Here it is inthe rules, I just copy/pasted it:

Entrants will be notified immediately by email if they are potential winners of the Instant Win Game and will be provided directions for validation.

That is the only reason I got nervous, because of that sentence......  But anywho, it was for the smaller Gift Card.... So we will see..

thanks again LDS for the link....

Don't trust these guys to put these rules together picture perfect.  A lot of times, they are just doing a cut and past from some of their other rules.
