Heard the Word Poetry Scholarship

<p>is their site not working? I can't get on. Does that mean this scholarship was a scam? You don't have to pay to enter, so i dont see how it could be. Anybody know?</p>

<p>anybody?</p>

<p>yeah rachel212, I don't know what's going on. I entered my poem, have been waiting for results, and saw that the site was down. The administrators didn't answer questions on the forums there as to when exactly the results would be posted (although the site conveniently shut down in mid-december, the time which the site also said the new results would be posted around).</p>

<p>So...I don't what to tell you. I'm pretty mad, but what can you do? It seems like they can only benefit from our poems, but what are they going to do, publish them? </p>

<p>Anyone else have insight?</p>

<p>es ridiculous</p>

<p>I can't get on either...Ihave a feeling it's a scam. They conveintly are down when the results are do...hummmm...
Sorry that I don't have any insight!</p>

<p>I too have noticed that their site has been down for some time. I also have been thinking that it might be a scam, but I just can't seem to accept that. When they were just about to announce the results in August, I remember the site being down for a little while and then they eventually came back on and had the results posted. Still, I can't remember it being this long. I emailed their customer services and I will let everyone know if I hear anything back.</p>

<p>Just after emailing their customer service, I received a message in my email that said there is no such user. I guess they can't receive email because their site is down. Sorry everyone.</p>

<p>damn...keep us posted nevkid if anything else develops!</p>

<p>I will send a letter to the address of Heard The Word Poetry and see if I hear anything back from them.</p>

<p>I mailed a letter today to their address. If I hear anything at all from them, it won't be until after Christmas. I'll keep everyone informed.</p>

<p>thanks, nevkid.</p>

<p>I sent them a letter last Wednesday and haven't heard anything back. It looks like we're out of luck. Sorry everyone.</p>

<p>damn...I was really hoping they'd be back, but alas, december is coming to a close. </p>

<p>my condolences to anyone else caught in a scam from the web!</p>

<p>new news actually boys and girls...</p>

<p>if you head over to the site, it has a new look. not the one we were hoping for, I'm afraid. It's one of those nonesense web search things with random links throughout the page. Theres an email link though (titled "Why am I seeing this page", which is what I WANT TO KNOW!)</p>

<p>So I emailed. Let's see what happens.</p>

<p>Hi Flipperbw. I also emailed earlier today and haven't heard anything yet. Let us know if you hear anything. I am still very upset about this situation and I'm sure you and hundreds of others are as well.</p>

<p>grrr... website come back!</p>

<p>I hope they dont steal my poem. That would really suck b/c i was going through a rough time when i wrote it, and it would really hurt if they did. Im so glad i found this website, i thought i was the only one wondering what happened. How could they be scammers? I found out about them through fastweb, arent they supposed to be ligit too? I'm so ****ed.</p>

<p>come to think of it, im going to report it to fastweb.</p>

<p>that would be a great idea, sophiejo, let us know what fastweb says, if anything.</p>

<p>I sure will.</p>
