Those using swagbucks ???

[havaneselover]

I "snagged" my first PayPal reward and received the verification email yesterday. It says it can take 10 days for another email with the gift card info, does it really take that long? or do they often come more quickly? I also just opened the PayPal account so I'm nervous it's not going to show up.

It's been taking about a week give or take a few days for my PayPal rewards.

I've been waiting since Nov 4 for my last GC (Amazon). This is the longest I have ever waited for one.

Did anyone do the in home trial of the kitty litter? My survey credits got screwed up for this and it wouldn't let me do the second one, but more importantly....does anyone know what brand of kitty litter this was? It's the best we have used! I would love to be able to buy it!

I don't have any videos showing up under nCraves today, anyone else? I'm having a hard time meeting my daily goal.

I had videos this morning when I did mine. I just logged in & checked....mine are still there.

Have you checked under "my gift cards" to see if it was there? I never got an email on one of mine but it in "my gift cards."

I also did the kitty litter trial and was wondering why I never received the survey for Week 2. Our kitty liked week 1's better (and I was able to fill out the survey for that one!). I don't know what either brand or formula is. I wonder why we couldn't complete the survey.

I was just coming back to report that it shows under my GC, but I still need the e-mail link, correct? I asked them to resend it so we'll see.

Ebates has 13% cash back now on UGGs; Swagbucks is 2SB per $1. With that big of a difference in savings I decided to use Ebates for an UGG purchase. When I did so I got the blue bar at the top of the UGG homepage to Activate Swagbucks.

So my question is, can I get BOTH Ebates and Swagbucks on the same purchase? That would be nice, but I don't want to activate SB if it will cancel out Ebates.

I don't believe so, I think it has to be one or the other.

I just started using swagbucks about a month ago. Yesterday is changed on my iPad so that I can no longer see what my daily goal is. It looks like it turned into a different version, mobile or something... Anybody know anything about this?

This has happened to me several times. Throwing this theory out to see what you all think...................
The "Watch" series of videos. Watch the entire category. Rarely, but sometimes I don't show the SB crediting to my ledger even tho I have check marks in the corner of EACH video box and the word WATCHED in all the boxes too. Additionally, the page tells me "Watched 20 videos" (or whatever # of videos is the required total for the category). Check My SB and no credit! Reload the page. Wait. Go back to the page. Reload. Let some of the already watched videos play again. Wait. Check ledger. Still no SB. At this point 30-45mins have passed. So I post my experience in the comments below the videos and rate it at 1 star. A minute or 2 later...............viola! the SBs for that video category suddenly post to my ledger!
As I said, this has happened to me a handful of times. The SB don't credit and don't credit, then I post a neg comment and BOOM! there they are. Do you think they monitor the comments and if it sounds legit, handle them like a submitted ticket and give you credit accordingly?

A lot of my favorite playlists (2 videos for 1 SB) are gone from Watch

 

[afan]

I had been doing several playlists in comedy because there was one for 5, one for 4 and a handful for 3. They changed the 5 and 4 one's to 3 today They aren't worth it for only 3. And my daily crave didn't credit. Going to try it one more time to see if it will. They are making it harder to get to my goal if I don't get a survey since I can only do things in the evening.

Still haven't been able to get my last GC even though it is supposedly in my GC since Nov 13. Have asked for the email to be resent several times, have contacted SB but no reply...

I also noticed changes were made (again!) yesterday to swagbucks. I did the 5 and 4 sb's categories every day and yep! they are gone for me as well. I'm only doing the ones for "3" now. Also the toolbar page for watching 10 video clips for 3sb is gone-- I get a blank page that says, "Forbidden". Over the past 4-6wks I'm distinctly getting the feeling that people have been earning too many SB's and "the powers that be" have decided to make it so that we have to spend more time on their site in order to earn the same amount of SBs in a day.
Edited to add- My 1st daily goal today is suddenly way up at 135 when it's been 95-105 for months! (except for on weekends)

Last night I barely made it to my daily goal of 80. I got 81 right as I went to bed.
I see my goal for today is 135. Makes no sense.

Mine was 135 today too and on weekdays it's generally 95-102.

The watch thing is annoying. I'm now doing the 4 for 1 playlists. But honestly so many aren't crediting in the first 40 seconds or so so I think I'm watching 5 videos per sb.

 

[crazymomof4]

During late Aug/Sept and early Oct I was consistently getting 300-400sb per day. I've now set my "personal" goal down at around 200-250sb per day. That's plenty for me. I like the "free" money for my next WDW trip, but honestly......if I'm going to be stressed all day trying to reach what I used to reach because swagbucks is making it harder .....ITS SO NOT WORTH IT.

 

[crazymomof4]

I'd like to also add that IMO swagbucks is shooting themselves in the foot with these changes. By making it so that more time is needed for each sb, they are going to be discouraging new users. They are going to see an increase in users who start and then quickly drop-out. And some veterans are going to decide it's too much trouble and quit.
On the other side of the coin, my perktv has been running really well and using four $9 phones I am able to earn roughly the same as I earn on swagbucks daily, but perktv is mostly "passive".--- I just have to click "still watching" every hour or so!! EASY!!!
