Ashland Vending, http://www.ashlandcorp.com/ Complaint - Contest Fraud
Complaint
INTERNET -- As a honest consumer from your state, I felt it was my responsibility to bring to your attention the following incident.
I believe a company on the internet is running a contest that is impossible to win. They state that you must win a game twice in a row within 90 seconds, but the wording makes it sound like you have 90 seconds for each game. Also because of the way it is set up, I think it would be impossible to win 2 games in a row in 90 seconds.
As a resolution, I would like the following:
I believe they should have to give everyone who 'won', the promised prize. I won the gumball machine twice and wrote to them because nothing came up asking for my information, and they never responded. I finally just spoke to someone there who told me you must win both games in 90 seconds total. I believe it would be fraud to offer a prize for a game no one can win.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like more details regarding this incident.
