Pogo Reviews

They scammed me out of $80.00 due to their site glitching and freezing. Then when I requested a refund, they told me there's nothing they can do. Awful customer service! Disgusting company. I recommend NO ONE signs up for this site. Would have rated them negative stars if I could.

I use to love Pogo. Now they have taken everything I liked away. My favorite games are gone and more will be gone soon. Customer service is beyond horrific. The new games with their 5 year old cartoon are awful. It's hard to navigate. I was going to quit but Pogo took money from my bank account without any notice or warning. They will not do anything to stop the cheaters (bots) even when dozens of people have complained for years about the same ones over and over. We're losing a lot and they just don't care! They're going to have a mutiny because it's just HORRIBLE!

I cannot go back to a place where the planning and preparation for change was a complete train wreck. Just about everyone I know has left POGO, cancelled memberships and have picked up something else to do. I was a paid subscriber for years, if not a few decades. In my opinion, they wanted to attract a younger set of people and allow the games to be played on mobile devices. But, the crowd that had supported Pogo felt left out and shocked that the place was turned upside down. There WAS plenty of warning - and time - to convert alot of those games to HTML 5. Now, in my opinion, its more like a gambling casino with strict rules. Limited amount of chats. All games that have option for mini purchases to keep them going. That's not my style and that is why they lost me as a member, and probably a lot more as well.

Now you cannot choose to let a player join or not join your table anymore. Pogo puts you with someone sometimes 100 pts below you. If you stand up or leave you automatically lose 10 pts. They need the old style lobby rooms back where you can click on a persons name and see their rating. You need to know if they are someone that has a lot of unfinished games. I used to love it. Played all the time. Now I only play when I am so very bored.

I joined POGO in 2002, played daily for years. They got rid of chat, then the games I enjoyed playing and replaced them with games from the Bigfish website. They are literally made for children! I cancelled my membership. I honestly thought it ws just me until I read other reviews. What a shame nothing like the original Pogo exists anymore!

If you really want to play a game against online players... please avoid this site. The game is so easily cheated, and as if that was not enough no ban is put on 'players' who use offensive language against others... I certainly would not let children of mine use this site. And putting * in strategic places would not fool any decent language checker... RUBBISH SITE!

Used to love POGO. Played every day at least for an hour or two. Can't believe I've been a member for 17 years. It was a fun, safe place to meet and play games with people who just wanted to play. Even those that were very competitive were still fun to play games with. Now, it's full of people saying horrible things to each other. I don't understand using POGO as a format for that kind of anger or rhetoric. It's a game site. I go to play and have fun, now all of a sudden it's like the ugliest parts of social media. People just say horrible things for no reason. I don't know if it's teenagers or just people who feel that on the internet they can say whatever they want because it doesn't feel like you're talking to people. I've renewed my membership automatically even though I don't play as much as I used to. But I won't do it anymore. The last time I complained about being called names because I won a game POGO didn't respond, which is weird because they used to block people who did that. I hope someone got rich selling off my favorite game site. Because whoever is running it now really sucks the joy out of gaming.

Estafa de electricidad

Four of us who are experienced online gamers tried to play Scrabble on Pogo and after a half hour of nonsense... trying multiple ways to connect and play the game after joining up, getting user names. passwords, etc. ... we gave up -- and none of us are quitters. This is the WORST game site there is. I wish someone would shut it down so no one has to go through the frustrations we just had.

But now they've changed the whole look making it more "kid" stuff. Some of the best games have been retired. Also, games are continually not loading or freezing so you need to restart and lose all your progress. Playing certain games that have challenges - the progress isn't credited. And what the heck are Pogis?? It's supposed to be some kind of reward but it's pointless. Maybe it's a kid thing but they're losing the adult players real fast!

I had a membership for years....would not buy a membership now for anything. The new game graphics are horrible...it affects how the game loads. Some of the games i loved are now gone. Also, now they have the daily challenge where one has to play and play to win and now the points are gone, what's the point? Yea, the points didn't really amount to anything, but it was fun to built up the total, now most times i don't even bother to play them.

Pogo used to fun, made friends and lots of games. EA bought them out and it has gone to pieces. They charge you for "gems" that you have to buy and can't possibly win a game without them. There is no longer a chat place when you play games. The games look like they were made for a child...cartoon characters.
To play the good games you have to be a member...$39 year.
Total waste of money. AND there is no way to contact them, no phone number, email, nothing.

No more! I've been a member since 2007 so 13 years. I've taken my auto-renew off and I will no longer subscribe or play on this site once all their on-going changes are complete, sometime this summer. Many games are like moving cards/pieces, etc thru Jello. Others load sometimes, dump you out or freeze in the middle of a game. It used to be a community kind of play where players were able to talk to each other, you could customize your "avatar" which was much more than that. Many, many forms of Mahjong and hidden object games. Worst is that you end up having to buy "gems" to "buy" extras just to finish some of the games if you want to do it in any reasonable time anyhow. One woman posted that she'd tried the same level of one of the games 538 times (she refused to pay extra to win) and still hadn't gotten thru it. No more. This is more like a kiddie-cartoon kind of site now. Graphics used to be geared to adults, now looks more like 4-12 year olds. Really a shame, I'm going to miss Pogo, but it's not worth playing for much longer.

Since EA has taken over, Pogo has become unusable. I've been a member forever, but this is my last subscription. I can't even get on the site right now due to some security or privacy issue that has been going on for a month. Maybe the hackers can bring back the fun in POGO. I suspect that EA is catering to teenagers who want violence, blood and explosions in their games and they've put us old folks out to pasture. Well, I'm going......someone else will get my time and money now.

My subscription was up this month so I cancelled it and did not renew. I don't like anything about the changes they have made to Pogo. My favorite game was Solitaire Gardens and it is gone. The new graphics are big and dark and look like they are for little kids. Pogo has no respect for their members. They must think we are fools and we would just accept the changes. They are losing their loyal members. They think they will attract young players but they won't because young players like the more exciting video games. Pogo has ruined their site! I would rate it a 0 if I could.

I paid the subscription for years and now the scrabble game against the robots is to easy when using the expert setting and many of the games I loved are gone. I was half way through an ongoing goal for months with a mahjong game where you had to make your way through all of the countries and poof its gone. I had months of my time invested in that goal. I will not be renewing my subscription.

I will not renew it stinks. Classic Pogo was wonderful Everything was easy to find no hassle. I believe it costs more now to play games that were once free. My annual dues should more than cover their costs and give them a profit. Very unfair what they did.

I hate Pogo now they ruined it , been playing since 2001 , I will never buy a membership ever again , what a crappy bunch of games , some advice for pogo , put all your new ideas in the toilet and flush them , go back to old pogo !!!!I am done with this junk !!!

I will not renew my membership! My favorite games are no longer available. The games that I do play are boring.Nothing changes. I play Tri Peaks, the cards don't change ,nor does the backgrounds. Where are the points? I did have over 2 million and I accumulated gems. Now you have to purchase them even though you are paying membership dues??

I gave it one star only because there is NO STAR to click on. I've been with Pogo over a decade with millions in points. This EA has ruined what was fun and obsessive daily games. They have my money for this year, that's it I'm done with this rotten disappointing excuse for fun. I'll be giving up all those hours to get those points because Pogo has hit the skids. Don't bother.

It was enjoyable playing with other players and chatting. It really feels like a rip off. When my anniversary comes up I am dropping pogo. Or bring back the old games. Add a photo, really! Been a member since 2005 This really pisses me off.

After 21 years of playing here, Pogo decided to change everything. It is a mess and I hate the "new" games. Graphics are awful, layout is confusing, and all the games I loved to play are being discontinued. Bah, humbug. I will not renew.

Wow. I got a 3 month membership after being away from POGO for a few years. It was a little splurge for myself. What a disappointment. The new games are horrid. Many of the old games are gone or literally revamped/destroyed. There are no more jackpots, and very few multiplayer games. I will not renew.

I've been a member since they started way back and have had to go off when working and trying to care for my disabled hubby (Marine) while he was undergoing various treatments. Back then, it was a good, fun site where I even found a few neighbors playing (we started our own Canasta card group one night a week in our homes) and it was fun. Later the leagues started coming in and the cheaters started. I had been playing since long before Pogo came along, so I was always being accused of cheating and moderators and/or Pogo higher ups refused to do anything. I finally quit for a while and came back under a different name where I only played not for points or a league - just for relaxation. It was better and then Pogo dropped the bomb - more than half of the games were going to be gone. Of the ones I enjoyed and played there are only 5 that will still be there when the marathon mess is over with. I had thought that the Crazy Cakes 2 would be fun - the original was and you didn't have to buy "extras". Wow! Now that is almost all you do if you want to advance! My subscription will be ending this June and I will not renew. Goodbye Pogo - you were a great friend while I was nursing my husband due to his battle with cancer. Maybe some day, Pogo will come back as something that is really fun and not just a childish money grubber, but I'm not going to hold my breath waiting.

Yes, a family friendly site filled with cheaters, stalkers, and poor sportsmanship, presumably Democrats! Pogo was great many years ago when I joined. I noticed at the time that there would be random messages from odd foreign names such as Zika saying go to POGOCHEATS.net and you can win Pogo games. The messages were repeated in numerous chat rooms and at the time I thought nothing of it. I started to realize as I played Boggle Bash players were earning unattainable scores at least by humans. Light bulb, the players had purchased cheat software from POGO, called double dipping on funds, and allowing players to cheat, pissing legitimate players off! Even now you can go to a Boggle room, and see a player called BSlinge124, who is a nuisance, and a cheat. Pogo not only allows this behavior, but, they get money from both legit and non legit players. There is no chance of beating a purchased cheat software(bot) and it makes me want to reach in the computer grab the person by the neck and choke em! What is the point in cheating? Get praise from a bunch of clueless players who think you are a Boggle genius! Wake up people! I am paying to be annoyed by Pogo and the cheats that it sells cheat software to. Seems unethical to me, and I will no longer be abused by the greediness, and sneakiness of the EA SPORTS morons. Family oriented, yeah, Gambinos, or Gottis! Maybe I can get one of them to take out the cheats! Good riddance!
