"Impossible playing games"
I have been a Pogo subscriber since 2006 and it used to be the best site ever unfortunately is not the case for the following reasons.
1) Is almost impossible to play any new levels games because are made so difficult that constantly we have to wait for reshuffle and the only way to advance is to buy moves or powers with gems which I can afford once a month.
For example, in the new game Garden Blast I am stuck on Random level 200 which is impossible to complete and therefore I will not be able to play this game anymore because it does not allow to go to a new Random level
2) We also cannot buy gems because it says that the site is having problems and we are asked to try later.
3) I reported this to the customer support but they do not even bothered to answer.
When the next renewal is due I will probably not renew my membership because there is no point as I can only play few same level games and it is becoming very boring. This view is shared by a lot of other players.
Is obvious that now the person responsible for Pogo does not understand players needs and it driven by greed which is a terrible shame because Pogo was the most amazing gaming site and out of loyalty I need to let you know and I would even be surprised if I receive an answer.

"Waste of time!"
I have no idea what platform this game was built with, but it has to be the same as Poppit Bingo. This is beyond insanity for speed....slower than my grandmother. Either delete the entire thing and start over programming, forget it and give up and OM $#@$#@ G why the is it the game of the month?

"I've been a member almost since the…"
I've been a member almost since the beginning and looked forward to playing various games on the site whenever I had some free time. Customer service used to be helpful and able to correct problems on the site. But I'm sorry to say. . . "No More!" Games don't work and no one cares. Sorry to be saying Good-Bye, but this has become highly frustrating and no longer fun.

"Tired of the same old excuses"
After over 20 years of playing the site has turned into a bad deal for me.
The new games are designed to sell you powerups and are blatantly rigged.
Every day something is not working properly and the complaints go ignored.
If you enjoy being ripped off and dealing with incompetence and apathy this is the site for you!!!!

"They don't listen "Garden Blast""
They don't listen to their paying players! In the past week there have been pages written in the forum on the game "Garden Blast" impossible to complete the game and win any badges for it, you must play the game to go forward in their free event celebration! Now they have made their monthly game this too!!! No one has responded to any thing written there!!

"Think carefully before joining - preferable don't do it!"
The forums are packed with complaints from customers and all are ignored. What used to be a fun site is now purely commercial aimed at very expensive in-game purchases to achieve a badge.
I don't why I still use this site as it's painful to navigate and the fact they lack any credible form of customer service seems to indicate they will not be around for much longer.
Sad really as Pogo Games was truly fun at the beginning. A great loss

"I have been trying to purchase gems…"
I have been trying to purchase gems without luck. Tried every suggestion given to me by EA, still does not work. Another EA "tech" gives me the same advice. POGO has gone downhill so fast. It is no longer fun to play.

"This gaming web site isn't what it use…"
This gaming webstie isn't what it use to be. It was the first to create games like bejewled, poppit and word whomp and some games that they have thus sold thier rights to. Now plastered all over the internet slapped with comical stories. I originally played on this website back when it was all free, yes free. A few years into production they decided to slap a monthly access fee to players to play without ads.
The company is decent to deal with. They keep making changes to their website to try and attract players. It's a fun place to spend the afternoon but the ads are so damn annoying. Their month to month prices were creeping up so high I decided to swap this out for other hobbies and activities. If you try to play the free version it's almost impossible to play. Because you have an add interrupting you every other new game. And even that obnoxious one in the middle of game play. If you don't pay to play the gambling algorithm of the win is much lower. Like much lower.
Remembering to cancel your annual subscription before time is up is a bare to deal with. Unless you cancel it 30 days before the new duration, it will renew then you have to pay a cancellation fee to cancel it. Thus sucking innocent people into an annual subscription to bring in more money.
When I was younger I enjoyed this website as it was sort of new for it's time. This was back in the late 1990's when it emerged to the web. Now it's definitely grown. I really despised it when companies when to month to month subscriptions. Before companies did this b.s. you could buy a life time key to the game or disc and not have to deal with this b.s. This over heavy advertisement game is not worth the money.
The playing algorithm is basically gambling. If you win, you win. The program shuffles a game for you and it's all based on the statistics of the gambling algorithm if you win or loose. Statistically it's roughly a 50-70% loosing streak. If you pay to play then you might get some where between 70-80% winning streak. I can not bring my self to play games where I have a 50% loosing streak. This and the over heavy advertisement and month to month fees is what made me quit this gaming site. now that smart phones have become popular, you can pretty much have a whole arcade on your phone. Free and several without ads.
