Says No Purchase Necessary But Demanding A Purchase, ripoff, must purchase

Internet & Web

Got email from PCH telling me that I needed to respond as a winner would be announced August 31 definitely. Again, it states on there that no purchase is necessary. Click on to complete your entry and it takes to a "corporate letter" from Ellen Linmar stating that they have no record of me ordering from them online.

I do not have to order, but here's my chance if I wanted to. I click to continue my registration (as their usual sites do) and it takes me to an order screen for magazines. At the bottom of this screen it still tells you no purchase necessary and has a submit button.

Click the button and it tells me that I have not placed an order.in order to get past the dang thing you have to place an order. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE NO PURCHASE NECESSARY? Any way on the order page it also says that if I fail to respond to this bulletin then I forfeit all prizes that may have been awarded to me.

Called the PCH at 1-800-645-9242. Gal there said that all their stuff is no purchase necessary. She referred me to 1-800-476-4724 stating that since it is an online thing, that is a completely different division.

Called the second number only to reach a closed office! Hmm? Ripoff!!!
