@Flynt does anyone on the covers team know if paypal is the only option for ALL cash prizes? Even for the 100,000 prize or the 25,000 prize? Or would you consider sending a check thru the mail for those prizes |

contestants like me want different prizes or more variety of prize.....
in Streak Survivor do they give you the option of getting a check in the mail? |

I am going to update this thread again after I get a response from the staff because I think the user who responded about covers filling out a 1099 may be correct. When I asked if covers sends YOU a tax form they said no, but I did not ask if THEY filled out a 1099 and sent it to irs. This website it sounding more and more hinky. I understand why espn streak is liked by players a lot more. I can't risk screwing up my taxes for a few hundred bucks. I am going to have to go with espn streak from now on. At least with their prize package I don't have to fly out to their offices to claim it. |

ok I am updating this thread-I searched thru past posts for hours until I found some answers-If you win the 25,000 prize or the 100,000 prize you can NOT get the money unless you agree to pick it up directly at their office. Which means for most of us having to FLY -like on an airplane-which some of us do NOT want to do. I believe this is why espn streak is more popular than covers is. I won't be playing in the streak survivor contest anymore. I will also NOT be suggesting this place to anyone either. Also, any prize over 500 dollars they send you an affadavit which must be filled out and notarized. That hassel is not worth even trying for the 1,000 prize. |

I thought I read someone say that guy had to FLY out somewhere and get his check? what if you don't want to? and what if you literally can not take time off from work to do so? there is not enough money in the world to convince me to fly anywhere and go thru the pedo molesting tsa agents-you gotta be kidding me

here is my issue-at a grande prize I do not mind a paypal deposit for a spending splurge-as a matter of fact looking forward to it-wish I could blow it on stuff I WANT instead of stuff I NEED-but at 25 grand-it's a different story-there are hoops to jump thru that make me uneasy-a bank account has to be hooked up to paypal-or-if I submit a ssn number I can get a check-the internet is LITTERED with people complaining about identity theft after they gave paypal their ssn number-I think a streak is enough hoops to have to jump thru-and I SWEAR if I do ever make it high enough to get my own JINX thread-I am bringing this topic up again-

I realize this is a question best asked when you get closer to winning a cash prize (but) does anyone know if covers sends you a tax form when you win a monetary prize? I know they themselves do not collect taxes-I can not find information on this

well never mind-I looked it up and they would have had to actually win by 17-I thought it was outright

ok-I am clearly mis understanding something- why is that a loss? I thought I would win if golden state won outright or lost by 17

doesn't sound sad at all-I am on another contest site that offers way lower amount and if I ever win that I will gamble it back-I do not know if I am allowed to mention the site of it but it is free horse race handicapping monthly contest-$200 grand prize
