I played around with OregonLottery a little bit more and realized you can’t even login as a guest to scan your tickets.
I don’t care if I am logged in or not, but it won’t scan even though I was logged in. So, I tried to login as a guest and realized you can’t scan your tickets as a guest. Great system! A security feature? Why? I’m logged in, but it wants me to login in order to scan, but but won’t, even as a guest.
You probably just hired a new programmer that changed some things, but maybe you should think about letting people scan their tickets whether they are logged in or not. Isn’t OregonLottery supposed to be a convenience for us? What else is it doing that we don’t know about?
Scanning my tickets doesn’t give me anything except for peace of mind. For me to have to login only gives you information, not me peace of mind, not me the answers to my ticket questions.
Yes, I’m irritated. Keep in mind I’m already logged in and it’s not working and there is no backdoor to confirm if I’m a winner. That makes you a loser. Because now my opinion of OregonLottery is a one star, or more accurately a zero star but you can’t give a zero star.
So tell me, if I am logged in already and can’t scan, can’t login as a guest and scan, is this a great app or what?
Keep in mind the more difficult it is to confirm if you’re a winner or not, the less likely you’re going to buy tickets. I was looking for convenience, not a way to waste my day off.
