I had been a club Pogo member for 7 years and loved it but after what EA pulled I am done with them.A full month before my yearly membership was to renew I started receiving emails and inbox messages that EA couldn't process my payment,13 in total in less than 24 hours.I contacted their support to inform them I wasn't due to renew for another month and at that time they would get their money, and I asked that the annoying spamming of my email and messages stop.However,instead of receiving 'helpful customer support' I was told by the rep that EA is well within their right to do so and if I didn't like it I was more than welcome to cancel the remaining time on my membership.Which is exactly what I did.

Pogo is evil.
June 11, 2017

I was a member of Club Pogo, but I got tired of paying for games that wouldn't work, so I unsubscribed and started playing for free. Now most of the games stop working halfway through, and I think they do that on purpose to try to get people to subscribe. Not only that, malware started loading on my computer during one of their advertisements, and I had a heck of a time removing it. I am staying far, far away from them from now on.

Pogo is a scam, don't pay for it. It isn't worth it - Pogo clots up your computer. It says it will pay out, but it does not. It freezes on you. I have requested from them help for 3 to 4 months and have heard nothing from them. They do not pay out. You do not win any money off the site. The site puts junk on your computer that you can not get off without professional help.

STAY AWAY FROM POGO. PLEASE FOR YOUR OWN GOOD.

Member for 17 years
August 29, 2020

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.

New HD games suck
June 3, 2019

Not only do the HD games suck, so does the fact that a lot of the games are just being eliminated, like Thousand Island Solitaire and several others. Mahjong Safari used to be a good game before it went HD. When Mahjong Garden goes HD, I'm out.

Since I joined Pogo Club I cannot get most of the games as your JAVA is an old version and needs to be updated. If not possible PLEASE CANCEL MY MEMBERSHIP. I would appreciate a response as to your action.

It is a free games site with lots of interesting games. If you do not like it, you get what you pay for simples. As of the moment I am paying nothing so have no complaints. Stupid people

CONSTANT problems with games not loading! I've been a member for years and it's worse than I've ever seen. Find another gaming site, this one has really gone downhill.

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.

I have been a pogo player since 2010 and this situation is so upsetting! I am so mad about pogo having to get rid of all the games that I like and one of my TOP FAVORITE games is poppit sprint! I played that more than anything else and I can't believe my fun days are coming to an end, I wish this was a joke! I absolutely loved playing on pogo and spent a lot of time on there building up my tokens but now I won't anymore because it's never going to be the same again! I am extremely distraught AND WISH THIS NEVER HAPPENED!

POGO BLOWS
September 17, 2017

POGO SHOULD BE POGOAWAY. POGO HAS BECOME POSSIBLY THE WORST GAME SITE ON THE INTERNET - PERIOD, YOU CANT COMMUNICATE WITH THE ADMINISTRATION, I KNOW OF NO ONE THAT HAS WON A PRIZE, YET THEY CONTINUOUSLY ANNOUNCE WINNERS, AT ONE TIME THEY WERE OKAY SEVERAL YEARS AGO, I GUESS THEY MADE THEIR MONEY NOW THEY DONT GIVE A DAMN. POGO SHOULD BE REMOVED PERMANENTLY. I SURE WISH THAT FLIPSIDE GAMES NEVER LEFT, THAT SITE WAS AWESOME. POGO, DO US ALL A FAVOR AND REMOVE YOUR GAME SITE... NOW!

Macintosh owners
February 26, 2009

Macintosh owners - For the jast six months =, I have tried to play on Pogo. YThey state that they are having problems trying to get connected with Mac,

My suggestion is that all Mac users foreget about Pogo and go to Gamesville.com This is a better program than Pogo.

I like the games they offer, it's very fun, but some of the members leave a lot to be desired. I think a little step up on the moderator side would be a good thing for this site.

I CANNOT GET LOADED IN HIGH STAKES POKER. WHEN POGO COMES UP IT SAYS OOPS WE MUST OPEN A NEW WINDOW FOR YOU TO PLAY THE GAME, IF YOU HAVE POP UP BLOCKERS PLEASE TURN THEM OFF AND TRY AGAIN. I DO NOT HAVE POP UP BLOCKERS AND IT SENDS ME TO A ROOM THAT HAS NO PLAYERS AND STATES I AM IN A ROOM THAT REQUIRES ME TO LEAVE. WHATS THIS ALL ABOUT LEO HORBACH1
