Pick My Postcode’s Stackpot Draws

It seems I have been sucked into buying a bottle of wine and a plastic tiara. What am I going to do?

Unlike Anonymous posts which are always coming up … and spouting BS.

Yes but apart from those 23 they never come up😂

Another 🐮💩 postcode is NE5 5IE ... 🦕

What a load of BS!

And now one on the 9pm Stackpot.

Think 4 on the mini draw since mid jan, less than I'd have thunk

Are you sure you're checking ALL the draws? There are 9 draws in total so if you're only checking the ones on this page then you're obviously missing out on a lot. BS comes up regularly as it's the area in which I was born so I notice when they come up.

You ARE joking aren't you! There were 23 last month plus any which may have been on the Mini Draw, which are not recorded.

There's one on the £5 bonus draw today,

I always check Trust Pilot for unknown vendors before any prospective purchase.

Did you not check the multiple comments on here before posting? There's one immediately below yours! Been explained by Em that it has been reported and will be removed asap.

The best advice before visiting any site from a Random Google advert, is to check online first. Even before that, if it mentions closing down sale, limited time offer or an unlikely low price / exaggerated claim…avoid avoid. Trustpilot is sometimes useful for alerting to scam / fake companies. Remember to be be very wary of too many 5* reviews when there are also many 1* reviews and warnings.

There’s a current spate of scams featuring closing down companies of various types, 3D sea creature glasses, metal birds etc etc.

@SunnySideUp - when you say you were "looking at this site" I hope you don't mean this site, PickMyPostcode? This site definitely isn't a scam - many people have won on here over the years. However, like many sites, they rely on google ads for advertising income, and google ads are notorious for scam ads. If you read all the posts about the particular ad you're talking about, then you will see that PMP have reported it as a scam ad and it should be removed by google soon. Unfortunately, PMP has no control over google ads.

Hi,I was looking at this site and thought it looked too good to be true.I started first giving 1 e-mail address and info stated made in uk .Then I used another e-mail and was advised made in China and exported from USA, Trust Pilot considered this as a partial scam, high shipping costs with very poor goods sent out that are near impossible to return for your money back!

I consider myself very fortunate not to have been sucked into this!

@ Lady B, no it's a pure scam! No physical location, contact online only. Goods poor quality from China.

It may well be that the administrators are selling off the assets to satisfy any outstanding creditors ?

Choc Spaniel is correct. We don't make the Google ads and everyone could be served something different.

We add offers from the companies which we are affiliated with. You will know if something is added to the site by us and is a vetted offer because it will have one of our buttons on it that says something like "Shop now" etc.

The rest are Google ads and you can close these with the little x in the corner of the ad. I am afraid that we have no control about what ads our members get shown. We can only be reactive to them, not proactive. The only filters we can ask Google ads to set up are to block pornographic and gambling ads.

A third party company helps us with the adverts. They set up the advertising space on each page and if something inappropriate or a scam advert slips through Google's filter, they ask us to ask the members who see it for certain details (listed in this FAQ article: https://help.pickmypostcode.com/article/113-what-to-do-if-you-see-a-dodgy-or-inappropriate-advert) and they will then do their best to find and remove it.

We would recommend that members do their due diligence and research any company before they interact with any Google ad. They can be ignored. We still get the revenue from the view.

I reported these to our advertising partner yesterday. They should hopefully be able to remove them but it will take a while.

The only ads PMP make are for their own sites Win A Dinner, PMPCompetitions & Snip. They also make the ones for the Games & Puzzles page.

The rest are Google ads and you can close with the little x in the corner of the ad. They have no control over these.

This has already been discussed on many pages and will be removed in time. Always best to browse comments before duplicating threads.

Oh No, I've missed the sale then!

Yes im real, although some days feel like a bot.....get up, walk dog, work, make tea, tidy house, go bed. Get up, walk dog, work, make tea, tidy house, go bed. Get up......yeah you get what i mean 🤣. Northern lass from Leyland 😁👍

She only married you for your booty Lol 63. 😂

😂

I am 90% bot, at least that's what my wife says when I sit beside her on the sofa.

Must be time for a virtual party, we haven't had one for a while...🎉

Can we have a virtual cake to share your five-year service, Em? Make my slice coffee cake please.

I'm a figment of my wife's imagination.

Thank you Seasider.

So sorry for your loss and glad you have a great supportive workplace

I wish parts of my life were not real (widow at 37, husband died of a rare cancer a few months ago aged only 38) you really couldn't make my life story up. So yes, I am real.

I have worked for Pick Media since Sept 2021 (oooo, coming up to my 5 year anniversary!) and I have a lovely, supportive team here. I'm very lucky to have this job and I'm very lucky to have this PMP community too. They are very supportive too.

I think it's so sad, and rather scary that people are already unsure about what they see is by real people, or not. Reading about how these bots are trained, and they're already doing unexpected things on their own initiative makes me wonder if they will outmanoeuvre us, in the future, and take over the world.

I'm real too and I am a winner! Morning C.S. that was toastie warm yesterday.

Just pinched myself ... ouch! Yes I'm real 👍
