RECURRING DONATIONS AND ENDLESS SPAM
by Mike Saunders

WInred is a nightmare of daily multi spam txts and they automatically charge recurring donations even if you clicked on "one time donation". I'm stunned they haven't been shut down. They'll refund the recurring donations (but not the fees) IF you notice them. Then you have to contact them with the credit card # you used and remember the date and amount. But you can be sure they're using that process to steal from those who don't catch the scam. And you can't stop Winred from selling your contact info to EVERY GOP campaign across the country plus countless phony "conservative" phishing operations that solicit money to supposedly advocate on behalf of specific conservative issues. And those campaigns will BLAST you every day with a dozen txt msgs soliciting money and originating from countless phone #s so you can't block them. The only way to stop the spamming is to change your ph #.

When I gave my donation, I willingly
by Anonymous

When I gave my donation, I willingly contributed, not expecting the incessant barrage of unwanted texts flooding my phone thereafter. Daily, I endure a constant influx ranging from two to seven messages. Though I don't bother reading them, I'm compelled to interrupt my routine, typing "Stop," and then erasing them from my phone. It appears they employ a vast array of phone numbers for this bombardment. While this may seem inconsequential to some, caring for my wife with dementia consumes every moment of my day, and these texts prove detrimental in numerous ways. Regrettably, there seems to be no permanent solution to halt this relentless stream. This experience has led me to swear off any future donations to political parties.

WinRed is a reprehensible organization that deserves to be avoided at all costs.
by Bill D.

WinRed is a reprehensible organization that deserves to be avoided at all costs. While they may have ceased direct solicitations, the issue persists as they have shared or sold my contact information with other candidates and organizations. The relentless barrage of texts and emails from these entities is infuriating. I strongly advise steering clear of WinRed, as their practices not only invade privacy but also contribute to an ongoing nuisance from other political entities.

If you don’t donate, they don’t care how you feel!
by Anonymous

Unless you are wealthy, just delete this website when it pops up. I am retired & live on a very limited income. I get at least half a dozen of these questionnaires EVERY DAY, and if you can’t give them money, they don’t accept your answers and the questionnaire goes nowhere. So I just delete them. The next day, it starts all over again. They obviously don’t care about what you think, they just want your money! I don’t even open them anymore…I just delete them.

Unauthorized removal of 50.00 from my bank acct.
by Joane C Skultety

A few years ago, I donated to WINRED AND GOP. While deleting email text from my phone on April 2 2024, I inadvertently opened one of their texts. That day they scammed 50.00 from my bank acct. I would like my money back. I don't even know how they continue to do this. I lost my job in February, I'm a retiree who needs to work to survive, like so many of us now. They need to refund my 50.00.

WinRed has not responded to my requests to remove the strip in the donation area
by Pat Rappard Linnhoff

Despite three attempts, WinRed has not responded to my requests to remove the strip in the donation area. This issue has blocked my ability to donate for about two weeks. The persistent credit card line filled with a gray strip remains unexplained, adding to my frustration. Prompt response and resolution from WinRed are essential for restoring confidence in their service.

I get that funds are needed to defeat the Dumbacrats
by Ric Donk

I get that funds are needed to defeat the Dumbacrats, but the endless texts are too much. There must be a different way to pause the flood of messages—the STOP command just brings even more junk from your service. If this doesn't end, I WILL STOP DONATING! I never got this mess until I gave money. End the texts or lose me as a backer.

Alright, it seems like it's that time of year again
by Pugsley

Alright, it seems like it's that time of year again, and these text messages are just part of it. I usually just ignore and delete them until I decide to donate once more (if and when). I’ve given to the trumpmeister a few times using this site, but recently, I haven’t received any "thank you" notes. What happened to your manners?

needs make everything simpler
by Mit

OK, so, um, yeah, I think this company needs to like, make everything simpler. They like, stopped sending so many annoying emails and texts after I asked them to. I'm tired of all the messages saying "three tour veteran and I want you." They don't even say where they are located. Leave me alone already!

I got some Trump 2020 glasses
by Vernon

I got some Trump 2020 glasses a while back, which was okay. But I got a new white MAGA hat recently, and it's not here yet. I emailed them a bunch, no reply. As a strong conservative, I want to show support. But they need to improve their merchandising and replies to customers. Hope they fix it soon.

I was a loyal donor to my preferred candidates
by Anonymous

I was a loyal donor to my preferred candidates, etc. - Not anymore! After sharing my cell phone number on WINRED, my work cell is flooded with donation requests (avg 35 per day) I've tried blocking the numbers, calling them, all with NO LUCK. Also, texting "STOP" doesn't work. You've been warned!

I dun Trust WinRed!
by Patrick

I dun Trust WinRed! I want my donashun to go ONLY to Presdent Trump. I DO NOT like how WinRed keeps doin surveys that need a Donashun to submit. I've also been trickd by the double speak and prechecked boxes that trick into continuous distribute. Sounds luv a very Democrat thing to do.

I had no trouble making my donation
by Karen

I had no trouble making my donation, but the extras like tipping and adding more money were confusing. I wanted to confirm my original donation, but it bundled in 4 more donations I didn't want! Luckily, I canceled and got refunds, but the site is confusing and caused extra hassle!

Donated for a Trump hat on July 8th.
by jean

Donated for a Trump hat on July 8th. It's now August 12th and I'm still waiting for it. Their responses are automatic and impersonal despite my many inquiries about my order. I'm starting to worry they might be a scam. I had already been scammed for Trump items on a different site.

I gave money to two candidates last election.
by Allen

I gave money to two candidates last election. I regret it. I receive 10 to 20 texts a day now asking for money. I feel like I'm being treated like a cheap prostitute being passed around. When you text stop, your number is given out to others. Don't get caught up in the trap.

I placed an order on July 19th
by Harry Murphy

I placed an order on July 19th, and my item is still not here. I haven’t gotten any updates or replies to my emails. This makes it tempting to look for counterfeit MAGA gear. It makes me wonder if WinRed is being run by people who don’t want us to get what we ordered.

I've emailed 5 times and called three times
by Sparty

I've emailed 5 times and called three times with no real reply. I answered their standard email with my order #, but still no response. It's been over two weeks since I bought a hat and T-Shirt. It seems like this company might be a SCAM!

WinRed seems set up to lure
by John

WinRed seems set up to lure donors into recurring donations unintentionally. I advise against using WinRed for donations. If you must, be very careful with them.

I'm elder and a conservative
by George

I'm elder and a conservative. I've given to Win Red lots, but lately, I donate online, and they double or more my donation and then thank me for more.

The company's customer service is up to par. I inquired about my order and got a follow-up email that clarified things. Everything's fine. Thanks!

Winred seems greedy and forceful.
by Jason Richards

Winred seems greedy and forceful. Unsubscribing is impossible! They deserve a lawsuit. I'm not a lawyer, but I'd back it. Winred, you SUC!
