I went to my NFBC link to find the link to claim my NFFC prizes. This may help a few people.

I have another question. My tax advisor is saying I have to pay State taxes in Wisconsin on the entire amount of the 1099 even if I can deduct that whole amount off my Federal taxes for the entry fees. That is total crap that I pay $4K, get $4K back, but then have to pay 7% tax on the $4K "earnings". Anyone else have that problem? Agree/disagree with my advisor?

I really would want my entry fees deducted off my 1099 total before they send it to me if that is the case. From what I can tell they subtracted the entry fee for just the teams that won money, my problem is I have no idea how they came up with the total from SnapDraft.

If you had problems with your prize accounting last week go back in today. I did, and its different than last week....it's correct, all prizes accounted for and looks good to go.
Thanks guys.

We still have 18 owners who haven't claimed their prizes yet, including a couple of league champs. Fanball needs everyone to claim these prizes before sending out the winnings, so I will contact everyone individually to make sure we get this done. Look for an email now, but PLEASE go in and claim your winnings ASAP so that you can get what you earned. Thanks.

Go to the first page to find out how to claim your prize. Thanks. Outside of these 18 owners, every NFFC winning check has been sent. Thanks and congrats all.

This is the kind of customer service we've come to expect from the NFFC, unlike the "other" contest who has yet to pay out with little explanation.

I think that other contest is really in trouble, by the way.

I definitely give the NFFC a "pass" last year, because they were with management much like that other company who doesn't seem to have a clue when it comes to "customer service".

Maybe they could hire Greg, Tom, Alex, and Dave on how to treat their customers properly and not keep them in the dark, rather than blowing the money on celebrity leagues and a week long Super Bowl shindig!
