NETRAFFLE (formerly Netwinner)
Guess not enough members wasted their points on the raffles instead of saving them up for Ecount cards or reloads, so they crammed the raffles down our throats by making all of the 10's as useless entries. The name should be permanently changed to NetRaffle, since it's turned into about a 95% raffle site instead of the rewards site that it used to be. The best way for me and others who don't want to waste our time on entries that we'll probably never win a prize on will be to quit playing except just enough to keep our memberships active until we get the GC's or reloads that they owe us. We can't tell what we really think about it being a "raffling" site there, but we can tell the truth about it here.
If anybody wants to join the only big raffling site on the net, I suggest you join. Otherwise, don't waste your time playing there. Maybe when enough quit playing, they'll do something about it. I will start playing often again when we can get the points like we used to get instead of RAFFLE ENTRIES!

On the 14th I won one of the $100 drawings! I just play while at work and can spin off and on all day.

I haven't played there in months.
Guess I haven't missed anything either.

My three referrals have quit, and so will I if I ever reach the cash out. If it truly seems to remain hopeless, I'll quit before then. I'm down to 40 spins left for today. I've gotten 50 points and 4 pokes in the eye with a sharp stick... I mean, entries into the drawing.

Doesn't matter is you reach the cash out just try to get them to send it.

A couple of my 12 referrals have quit and more plan on quitting when they reach the cash out point. They are all bored with the site. Assuming that 100,000 play per day, you would only have a 1 out of 10,000 chance of winning a raffle. That's whey they give out 10 per day. Now that they've gone to two per day, your odds would be about 1 out of 50,000. I'd rather click on the Freeride videos in my spare time or play online games for fun like on Yahoo and Pogo that be bored on NetRaffle!
Congrats maysie! Don't expect to ever win another raffle. If you do, you're defying the odds or it proves more that the drawings are fixed. I don't trust NW at all.

Hey loveswolfs! When was the last time you redeemed in 2007? They owe me a GC from early November, one from late November, and another from mid December. There is no reason be waiting nearly 6 months for a GC.

I am waiting for several ($25) from Nov and Dec too. This is the longest I have waited so far (at 165 days now), each one takes longer and longer. and you cannot even track status through your account, as they say that is not up to date for approved status etc

Seems like it takes them a month to mail out each week's GCs now. I have redeemed going into late March and have enough points to redeem for another $100 Ecount reload. I won't be playing enough to get another 100K points. I did play 100 spins yesterday and ended up with 1175, but hit two 500's and a 100 on the wheel. The one from early November still says "Pending". I do think they need to rename the site NetRaffle since that's all it's good for.
Let's just hope we do get what they owe us, Surfergal!

Someone posted the BBB report for Netwinner on NetwinnerCentral.com, which says right near the top "BBB Rating Unsatisfactory", yet the people in the forum keep saying they don't see that as negative. Talk about being in denial! Here's the link -

I believe they will pay us, eventually. I just don't appreciate how long it is taking them. It should never take them that long to process the payouts. When they started getting behind they should have called a temp agency to get a couple people in to help get them back on track.
