If you go (A) avatar, my profile, classic library, visit my collection, find a badge, you get kicked back to UGLY Pogo. Instead, if you go (B) avatar, my profile, gear, back to my collection, find a badge, you get CLASSIC Pogo’s useful list of badges where you can buy all badges in a cart. The Bonus Challenge badge for 1000 pogis appeared in my gifts immediately after I purchased badges.
FADEDWILDROSE says
On my second account, I noticed that the bonus badge was there before the purchase as stated in their promotion. Is that a glitch that will go away?
the original kiki says
Not to mention that using the Find a Badge link is the only way you’ll see when these (and other) expire for purchase. So much missing from New Pogo…
Dusty says
Really happy with these badges. For me an extra as is no Quinn’s or Snowbird. Plus there are no double badges, all different, except maybe the world class which is our free bonus badge. But overall a very nice selection with all doable challenges. UNLIKE the silly Peggle Blast challenge. 🙂

“Lura”;
Thank you so very, very much for providing the names of the badges. I maintain my own accounting file and I do need the badges names. Personally I am not a fan of Pogo’s new system, but “Lura”, thanks to you and a few of my Pogo friends, I am able to somewhat understand Pogo’s new system even though I am not truly confident. Good Luck “all” members in understanding Pogo’s new system. Also for me, Pogo is making some challenges so long and tough, unlike most times in the past, I am not buying all of these badges. Again, “GOOD LUCK EVERYONE”!

I purchased all of the badges under Pogo Classic. When I went back to regular Pogo, none of the badges showed but my gems were 300 less. I contacted EA. Was told I had to wait 72 hours to see if things would show up. That is weird because in my 20 years with Pogo I have never had a delay in purchased badges. So my advice is: purchase under the new Pogo, not the classic!! Buyer beware!

I only buy on Classic and all 15 are in my M&M Albums. And bought 1 on my 2nd account b/c of the promo, on Classic, and that badge is in that album also.
Have you checked you albums?

jwalters1395 says
Hi Suz,
Thank you for responding. Yes, I checked my albums. I even repurchased a few on current pogo to see if I was going crazy, and those showed up.

MomsBassetHound says
Maybe you will have a good experience with them and be able to tell us about in in the weekend open thread 🙂
In all sincerity, Good Luck!!

With new Pogo a good way to check your purchases, do this: At top of home page, Click on Challenge. Then Challenge Central. Scroll down and click on Find a Challenge. Scroll down and click on Challenge Status. Open that up and Click on “Not Activated.” Then Click on Ownership. Click “Owned.” That should show you all the challenges you own but have not activated.
Good Luck
MomsBassetHound says
Still a lot faster and easier using My Collection on Classic, and that is going anywhere soon, if ever.
Suz
MomsBassetHound says
That should read “isn’t going anywhere soon”.

FADEDWILDROSE says
I purchased on Classic and all my badges showed up immediately. Perhaps you hit a time when they are trying to fix their obvious badge awarding problem.
jwalters1395 says
Thank you for responding! maybe? I will just have to wait and see.

When I went to purchase the platinum badges that I wanted at midnight the free WCS badge was already a gift. I bought mine from New Pogo and had no problem at all.
RyzandShyn says
Nice! I found 6 of these in games I enjoy playing, so those were the 6 I purchased.
I look forward to receiving the free one in about 2 weeks. That’s a nice bonus!
Kathy says
I bought some of the badges under New Pogo and did not get the World Class one 1000 pogis
and noticed in new and coming soon more Platitum badges are coming May 28?
jwalters1395 says
This is the follow up on the lost 300 gems. I was on the phone 20 minutes talking to Bianca at EA. She told me because I purchased ‘challenges’ and not badges, that I can not get my 300 gems back. She said the challenges are not badges. We only receive badges after completion of the challenge. I explained to her that in my 20 years of Pogo, we never could just purchase a ‘badge’ and we are talking semantics. She said she could not refund the gems, or give me the challenges I purchased. She said she could not give me a supervisor or manager, said she would send me some articles, then promptly hung up on me. So looks like I am out the $20 for the gems that they took for my unreceived purchases.
If any one has any suggestions, how to proceed, I would appreciate it!
