Hi everyone. Welcome to another edition of Danielle’s Desk, where we answer the questions you’ve posted on social media. More specifically, where Prize Patrol elite member, Danielle, answers your questions. The question we’re addressing today is a common one, and you may be wondering about it yourself: How long do you have to play before you win?
Question: How Long Do You Have To Play Before You Win?
Click on this video to find out!
Like Danielle said, we’ve had winners who’ve been entering for years, and winners who’ve been entering for weeks. The winner selection process at Publishers Clearing House is completely random, so everyone has an equal chance of winning, no matter how long they’ve been entering.
I watch Winning Moments all the time. I love how shocked and happy everyone is. Witnessing such a life-changing event is really something, and I always get really emotional. Having seen so many, I can tell you that I’ve heard winners say they’ve been entering for years, and I even heard one winner say she’d been entering for three months. THREE MONTHS! Talk about lucky!
There are so many opportunities to win, and it’s always FREE. I can’t imagine why anyone would choose not to enter… which brings me to a question I have for YOU.
Question: How Long Have YOU Been Entering Our Sweepstakes?
We want to hear from you! Please visit the comments section below and tell us how long you’ve been entering to win a PCH sweepstakes! What have you won? Which prize would you most like to win? Have you entered to win our latest SuperPrize? I hope so, because it’s $1,000 A Day For Life, and a “Special Early Look” Prize Event Winner will be announced October 31st!

Whether you’ve been playing for years or days, any PCH Winner will tell you that the most important thing, without question, is to keep the faith and keep entering… because HEY… you never know! Good Luck!

Hello Darrell, If you need assistance, please reach out to our customer service team by clicking the link here: https://bit.ly/ContactPCH.
I have been playing for thirty years.
Playing and praying I win PCH.
I have been playing PCH since 2013, I currently have not won anything. I play every chance I get, its sometimes hard with a toddler. LoL I would love to win the $5000 a week for life, I would use that to pay for my son’s college and to help my family out that would be a blessing, and yes, I have entered to play the latest sweepstakes. In it to win it!
I have actually won two 75.00 dollar and two 5.00 checks. I have entered daily for at least 7 years except when hospitalized or when I had no access to internet. Everyone says I am crazy and that I will not win anything, but keeping the faith I continue. If I won a substantial amount I would have a home with open floor plan to make it easier to get around in when unable to walk with wheelchair access. I would also give to family and church, but keep a nice nest egg. Travel would be great as I would so love to see more of our incredible country here and maybe abroad. I have limited mobility issues and require assistance occasionally. Play daily at least 3 to 4 hours.
I’ve been playing religiously since February 2022, everyday I believe for usually at least 2 hours daily. I am desperate to win the superprize of $5000 a week for life or the 2.5 million mega prize. I need this for my future because I have no retirement and also for my daughter’s college tuition starting next year. I also want to be able to give my aging parents some peace of mind about my future so they won’t worry about me so much. I also wouldn’t have to rely on my ex-husband for my needs. It would be nice to have financial freedom for once in my life. I’m experiencing some rheumatoid arthritis issues preventing me from working at this time. I miss cleaning because it helped keep me in shape and I enjoy helping people.

The question should be how long did it take you to win something that you were able to keep, because I played for close to 7 years, and I won several jackpots the first was 50.000 dollars. But employee of PCH Tom Barker and a employee of Google’s who the set ohac and stalk customers accounts stole that 50.000 and I can prove this and will in court, about a year after that I wo a .million, and a man the same two people stole that jackpot again I can prove and will 100 percent that they stole that jackpot, so the question should be how much did you win and was able to keep.
Hello Grant, The real PCH doesn’t notify our major prize winners via phone, standard mail, email, or social media, and we never ask for money to claim a prize. Please report any details you have about that scam contact to us at this link: http://bit.ly/Report-Scam-To-PCH. I also encourage you to check out these Safety Tips for some great info on what to watch for: https://bit.ly/FraudProtection2. Stay safe everyone!!

I’ve been playing for years EVERYDAY. I play all the games until the end is complete. I’ve never won anything other than tokens.
7.000 a week for life would be life changing but its a very low chance of me ever winning anything. The games help pass time.
Hi all, I’ve been playing since 2007. I enter all the emails I receive daily and never see any results except tokens. Have over 3 tokens million now, but how do I get a million p/day. Being a dinosaur, I have probably been doing this wrong since 2007, which wouldn’t surprise me. On Search, I enter all the Search boxes and even the the emails that say enter 2 or 3 or 4 times. Nothing. Enter all the others and still nothing. However, I did win 3x on slots back years and years ago, approx. $115 total. So, what do I change, if anything? Thanks.
