    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-

    LOL Jinx Thread! 

    It's called support kid. I know that's a rare thing in Trump's America but believe me if you're fortunate enough to get to 16 you will be loving the support and love the community gives you.

    Maybe he thought Mr. obama was still running America? Covers will not just give you money if you don’t earn it, this isn’t welfare or health insurance! This guy is actually worried about getting paid hahaha. So is it confidence or ignorance, opps I forgot the word ignorant and it’s forms is offensive to Mr. obama supporters hahaha. For real, don’t you guys wish you were his bookie!!!

    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.

    can someone clarify that. Cause i highly doubt you covers will make you fly to Canada to pick up your prize.  Would appreciate an answer from an official covers rep.   Interesting question.... i never worried about picking up a prize, best streak is only 10

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.
