EPRIZE

[tharedhead]

Don't feel bad about not registering for the Taco Bell, I have often been sweeping away and suddenly realized I'd clicked right past a win screen. I just get in the groove (and so used to losing laughing. Its happened to everybody.

Good morning Sweepers! As we start a new month of winning, I just wanted to take a moment to address what has been a hot topic lately - site etiquette.

Here at SA, we encourage you to make the most of the site and participate in the Forum discussions. Assume that the people you are talking with are like coworkers with whom you have a comfortable relationship. We like to keep it friendly!

Please, feel free to talk about sweeping, offer sweep hints, make site suggestions, ask for help, post your wins, congratulate other winners, tell us if you discover a new sweep, chat with other sweepers, ask for help with voting contests, encourage others, and so on. You can talk as much as you want, offer unlimited suggestions, and express differing viewpoints. As long as posts are appropriate and respectful of others, no problem!

For most of us, this seems pretty obvious.

Sometimes, however, someone will show up and post things designed to agitate our members. Although it's fine to disagree with someone, what we don't want to see is an attack. You will not be welcome here if you abuse our members, post nasty or libelous comments about our Administrator, or make derogatory remarks about SA. If you want to trade insults about the site, take it elsewhere. Also, please think twice before posting negative remarks about any of the contest sponsors, or competing websites.

We want to keep SA fun and lively. Our members are a great bunch of people who make SA a pleasure to visit! Thanks, everyone, for being an important part of a wonderful online community. Now, go win something!

At least with ePrize, it wouldn't matter since they don't usually require you do anything once you win; and the email confirmations come almost immediately except on the bigger/major prizes.

As for ePrize, they are just a judging agency (JA). Unless they're running they're own sweepstakes, which happens from time to time, they do not purchase or provide the prizes offered in any of the sweepstakes; and they can't send them out until they themselves receive them for distribution.

Any issues that can't be addressed with the JA or no longer taken up with the JA should be addressed directly with the sponsor. The post office also has a card that can be filled out with the address you were expecting mail from to see if they can track it and find what happened to it. It's usually not successful, but it's worth a try.

Most of my gift cards have come through USPS. Mail department costs are extremely high in large corporations, and they have to keep within budget. With the volume of prizes being awarded in each of these sweepstakes, it would be much too costly for the sponsor to send them all out by UPS, Fedex, and DHL. Having worked for a large corporation at one time, I can understand them using USPS rather than the latter carriers.

I now remember another prize I never received; and, having been sweeping for about eleven years now, I'm sure there were others I never received.

My attitude is that I haven't won anything until I actually get it in my hands, I'm not going to get upset or angry over something I never had in the first place, and I'm thankful for what I got.

Negativity is a poison that can effect your health, well-being, mental state, and how people see you and react to you. I have too much to be thankful for in my life to let anything affect me that way.

I think eprize is a great co. I wouldn't want the job! I contacted them about quite a few wins. If you are nice to them the'll even give you a direct contact tel. #. I have a great relationship with Stephanie. I never received my gift card from "win big in Qtopia". I now believe it was stolen after I moved. They did look into it. I was also missing 2 day pass to Disney! I was so upset at that loss. She had proof it was mailed and actually replaced it! No complaints here.
