I had a longstanding dispute with Madebiglotto because they had not payed a $25 cash drawing win from January. A lot of email responses initially-"the check's in the mail" or "we'll look into that" and then they began not answering emails. Finally when I won the $25 drawing again and they refused to answer any email inquiry-I got PO'ed. I found the advertising application site and "applied to be an advertiser" but left a message-"do your advertisers know that Madebig does not pay their players?? and that a planned boycot against Madebig and any individual advertisers who failed to drop their advertising from Madebig would be shortly be promulgated by email to all advertisers."---Two days later I got a very appologetic email-stating that they would reissue the check and 2 days after that-an email stating that they had found a "glitch" in their system-apparently they HAD NOT PAYED A LOT OF PRIZES and would re-enter all of them. So-"it pays to advertise"

Now I really wonder about that big progressive jackpot that keeps getting higher everyday. Good strategy standing up for yourself. Thanks!!!

WTG, Clayton. Let us know if you receive your winnings. I stopped playing Madebiglotto a long time ago. I no longer have much faith in lottos with in-house draws. I only play those with reputations for paying winners like Freelotto, Luckysurf, and Troppolotto.
