How is Powerball Australias biggest Jackpotting lottery. When you buy an 18 game entry you may only receive 9 of 20 PB numbers. My family purchased 4x50 games to obtain 17 PB"s, without a winner. One of my games contained 2 PB's but both had the same 3 undrawn numbers.
ive ben playing lotto for over 40 years, i can tell you that an average game will have one pair of numbers , very rarely you might see a draw with unusual group of numbers , but recently unusual groups of numbers come up especially on jack pot draws like on saturday the 28th of march ,it was a bonus 20 million draw, or last power ball jackpot… Read more
number's were 4,5,6 and 13,14 other jack pot oz lotto drawn on the10 march numbers drawn were16,17 and 24,25, how about oz lotto draw 10march numbers drawn were 16,17,33,34 and 41,42, the chances of such numbers being drawn are very remote. OZ lotto draw on the 24th February if you look at the supplementary numbers they all matched with the numbers in the main numbers making up 3 sets of pairs , how ever someone won 4 million , obviously the draw was mucked up, I have a great suspicion about how this game is played , with AI becoming available who knows what really goes on

Please check your tickets before handing them over to newsagents one I went to today said I didn't win but I know I did. It was only a small amount but that's not the point. I replayed them and asked her to take winnings off, she said no winning and threw old tickets in the bin. I told her to check again and she said it was cause of old machine… Read more
but my ticket was from new machine. My winning came up on machine. This is not the first time this has happened. They are scamming people and claiming the money for themselves. So far I have been to two different newsagents both have done the same trick so please check your tickets before handing them over.

I received $55 worth of Scratch It tickets for Xmas in Xmas cards I did not win $1. These tickets are not value for money. Comes across as a rip off.
Hi Eve, thank you for your feedback. I will ensure your feedback is shared with the relevant teams.
Scammers. DO NOT PURCHASE YOUR TICKETS ONLINE WHATEVER YOU DO. Ripped off on a systems ticket. I have 1 winning tickets online and 1 from newsagency. The paper ticket is the same as the online ticket HOWEVER online I won $11 in-store ticket won $630. Same game same ticket type same amount of winning numbers.

rubbish and actually states your prize WILL be different online and in-store. I've added a screenshot of their email as proof.
Thank you for sharing your feedback — we’ll make sure it reaches the appropriate teams
Be warned about buying Lottery Tickets online. In addition to a commission charge per game, the Credit Card Provider is able to charge a minimum of $3.00. This is treated as a CASH ADVANCE which then incurs interest on any further purchases made in that billing cycle. The only way to stop the interest charges is to pay the full amount as soon… Read more
as one is aware of it…..I.e. one loses the INTEREST FREE PERIOD. An interesting way the Banks are making money.
GAMBLERS BE AWARE!!!
Story time – Just checked my tickets and nothing again says lucky lottery super no winner jackpots again next week! then click on winners and there’s this story of old lady winning it two days ago the one no one won. It’s my last time wasting money on this crap also had my account closed 2 times and it won’t let you log in to verify don’t bother buy silver or bitcoin or just something nice for yourself instead
Beware of TheLott Syndimate Online – With a $50 Million prize pool, I created a Syndicate Powerball ticket using TheLott's SyndiMate tool on a near new Android phone. After setting it up, I received an email which pointed out this is not a ticket, and to pay for and get the syndicate ticket I needed to go to a Tatts outlet. I did this twice and on neither occasion could the store… Read more
scan the barcode that came in the email. The first time the outlet person told me I had to ring TheLott...which I did, but was then told to go back to the outlet and if it did not scan, the outlet would need to ring TheLott.
Well, again it did not scan and the outlet manager rang, but the call centre suggestions DID NOT WORK.
My advice is not to use the online TheLott Syndimate tool as it is deficient.

Australian lottery "THE LOTT" is rigged, and this is how they do it. Since the privatization of the "THE LOTT" Australian Lottery System, there have been changes to the draw barrels, the old barrels used to spin in one direction and then reverse to… Read more
catch all the winning balls at the same time. All the balls and their numbers were visible through the entire draw. Now they use ridiculously complicated ball lifting machines which make no sense except to make rigging possible. A lottery draw should be one continuous video of the draw, but the draw videos are cut multiple times during the draw, there is no continuous feed of video, if you watch the online draw videos you will see it is simply rigged. "THE LOTT" make claim there are government and lottery supervisors in the draw room, but no one is ever shown.
At the end of each day the lottery computer uses a powerful algorithm to give out a set of winning numbers that will give the "THE LOTT" the highest profits and prevent anyone from winning a first division win.
The lottery "draw barrels" then lift those rigged numbers up from underneath the machine, this is why the camera view of the lottery draws is always from down low and only from the front, "THE LOTT" never show the balls being drawn from above. Yes, the rigged balls are actually under the machine and are lifted up through the balls in the machine, the numbers on the balls in the machine can't be clearly read by the viewer. There is a defused layer on the barrel glass which makes the balls in the lower half of the barrel look blurred. When a rigged ball fails to lift up in the barrel, the draw is stopped and the ball lifted again, this isn't noticed because the draw videos are cut prior to being shown on television, draws are not live.
The Channel 7 lottery advertisements deliberately show an above view of the balls spinning in the barrel, this is to fool people into believing the barrel isn't rigged, Channel 7 play a large part in the rigging of the machines. Channel 7 started doing this after they read my original rigging reviews over two years ago. More proof that "THE LOTT" is rigged.
Note how Channel 7 are able to make news reports on the fake winners, they make claims that the winner is a male or female, or of such an age, the area they live, what the winner plans to do with the winnings. Although it is illegal for "THE LOTT" to publish the name and details of the winner, so how is it that Channel 7 are privileged, they are just a television network. This is more proof of Channel 7 taking part in the rigging.
Have you known anyone that has won a first division lottery win or even known someone who knows someone who has won a first division lottery win. The Lott, claim there are over 260 new millionaires made each year, so where are all these people, this is Australia, you can't even hide a good night out from your neighbor's in Australia, so how is it that I have spoken to my family, friends and strangers, over 100,000 people, and not one of these people knows someone who knows someone that has won a first division lottery prize in Australia.
Follow-up · Draw videos can be found on "THELOTT.COM" website, click on results and draw video for that game. Winners have anonymity, this is how Thelott.com can keep the lottery winnings for themselves, they don't have to prove there is a winner, just lies placed on TV by Network 7, who is also involved in the corruption.

opened acc during covid; They have strict procedures for verification of id when u first open acc,and wont release infoe that does not concern people or relavant, all those people having whinges over not winning,get a grip on reality, people win, and millions dont, i have known big winners8 in powerball 9m$,and Oz $12m,locally, they are set up for life now,both people still working! So people do win!!! U just got to have right numbers on the right night!!!
Follow-up · Still s4l and saturday tatts, sadly powerball has risen in price,and game rules makes it harder to win, so i dont play as often! I play weekly s4l, multi week entry, other games weekly sometimes! Once acc with lott operating,u dont need to.verify id again as far as i know, wins are paid to online acc overnight, except div1 , 2 week waiting period applies!
I hate this App. Seriously just about everytime you go online to purchase a ticket(s), once you go to checkout it simply closes down. The time spent on choosing your ticket is lost as is the ticket(s). It is a joke!!!
Follow-up · Answers to the above::- 1. my samsung Phone.. 2. I contacted the Lott on 2 occassions this problem has occurred and they tespond with "we pass this on to the technical section". 2a. I find this comment is a standard as nothing happens as the problem continues! 3. The above response comes reasonably quickly. Just a computer gereration 4. I have now stopped purchasing tickets, through frustation!!

Hello, NEWS FLASH NEWS FLASH NEWS FLASH. Great now that I have your attention.

either go to the state in which the ticket was purchased ( worth it for really big wins) or you can place your winning ticket in the mail and claim your smaller wins. In my case $5 win but hardly worth it when you have to pay $2.50 on postage. There go's my free coffee. So who wins ? The Lott ! They have made a profit of $7, That's $2 dollars to purchase the ticket and the win on the ticket in my case $5 that I will not claim. You can multiply that by thousands of others people who can't claim small wins because it's just not worth it and that will be a BIG Profit to The Lott. This information isn't on their website. I spoke to a customer service agent at the Lott. As good as your well wishes are people, don't waste your money.It seems today I had time on my hands and played detective. Thank you for your time !

Why can’t we go back to the old days when you can see the draw live on Tv and the balls manually drop into the slot. Instead of a computer picking the numbers that the least amount of people used. I have noticed that when you win it’s always a two digit number and never three or more

Once again the cost of games has increased in powerball to increase the Division 1 prize. How about increasing all the other divisions so that it's worth playing? Powerhit gone from $26.95 to $31.50 per game is a rort. Will no longer play powerball, the odds are already the highest compared to the other games. Goodbye.

the lott is genuine, its also got mega security, turn off your vpn before you use the lott app or you will have to do 10 puzzles,dont go online its not safe just use the app, winning lotto is about (60 milion to 1) power ball is about (130 million to 1) its all got to do with number cycles, you just have to be lucky for the nxt cycle to include some or all of your numbers, dont lose faith, theres an old saying, YOU HAVE TO BE IN IT TO WIN IT :) Show reply

I strongly believe the Lott is a scam site. I doubt very much you are even entered into the draw. They just take your money and then send you link describing public odds of winning
Lotteries used to be run by the government to fund public projects such as the construction of the Sydney Opera House. Maybe this needs to be government run again because you win nothing with Tabcorp lotteries and projects aren’t being funded.

other institutions. Why a company would use this process amazes me. I have no confidence now that any details The Lott has of everyone is safe.

Its all bogus, as a test i brought 500 powerball hit lines quick pick over the course of 1 month (4 draws, all tickets different with 500 lines an PH) and never got a single last prize payout. It has to be the biggest scam in Australia. So if you're going to play it, if you're ment to win… Read more
you'll do it on one line don't waste your money playing for more chances as its something they want you to believe you have when its all regulated, they decide who wins and who doesn't. There odds on there site is fake advertising so don't fall for it. Better to save your money.
