Those using swagbucks ???

[adudeinblue]

I work for a not-for-profit and we have to issue a 1099 for any non-regular employee whom we pay $600 or more a year. We do have their SSN on file in order to do this. I'm not sure how--or even if--this is done for people who earn gift cards/Paypal on Swagbucks?

Another small invite-only reward group called RewardRack has been issuing paper work for 1099 to their members. A lot of the users who don't comply has their account disabled. Which is unfortunate because its currently the most passive earning group in my understanding.

But for SB, I'm not even sure how that would work because you can easily make another account. Or even if they do issue 1099. I just wanted to point it out to the user who was trying to abuse the system with 2 accounts under her sister name should be careful if they do issue something to her sister's name. I would hate it if my sibling was doing stuff under my name that would issue me tax paper work I didn't know about.

I've been running the apps on an iPhone 4. I upgraded my phone recently and am not sure I want to run the apps on the new phone and I'm returning the old phone to my sister. Any recommendations for an inexpensive phone to purchase which will run the apps fairly smoothly? I'm used to running them on ios, so I'm nervous about going to Android. Also, I'm open to new or used.

They can't legally issue tax papers without proof of identification. There can be no penalty held against her, though your concern comes from a kind place i'm sure. I've seen multiple people broadcast the multiple accounts they hold for their family, if i had realized what a problem this would have been with the members here it certainly wouldn't have been shared.

I think that you need to proceed with caution. Making accounts for multiple household members can get one's accounts flagged. If the accounts belong to actual people, then SB won't have a problem with it. If one is making accounts under false names or for people who are not actually using the account, they will have a problem with it. I've seen it happen with SB, Perk and other rewards programs that I follow on reddit. Do what you want but just know that you may be asked to provide ID if their fraud department flags the accounts. And if you're not following their TOS, then you should probably not put it out there on the internet. That applies to anyone and not TheDisneyDoll personally.

nCraves is weird again!

I keep getting an error when trying the tv apps. "Server not reachable, check Internet connection" I've unistalled and turned off wifi. Anyone else?

I've been getting that error all afternoon.

Ugh! It's annoying. Another forum I'm on 2 posters said they can get on it with no trouble.

It's still happening. Anyone know what is going on?

Mine force closed twice this morning, but then started no problem and has been running for about an hour and a half now.

I can't even get the app started. I get the "server not reachable - check your internet connection" message. I'm using and Android device.

I'm not having trouble with SBTV. I got unlimited bonus rounds yesterday and it's running fairly smoothly today. But I've been having issues with nCrave for over a week now. Most of the time, the pages won't even load but if I do manage to get through a series of videos, they don't credit. I'm just dialing back on SB and focusing my efforts on Perk.

Are you using IOS or Android for the SBTV app?

I'm using Android. Yesterday was fine. Today I am getting the "server not reachable" message.

iOS. And it's an older version of SBTV. I won't update because I'll lose my favorites.

DS has been trying to run SBTV on android and it is getting the service unreachable error. My ipad mini is running ok (still have the stupid fp ad and a couple of ones I have to X out of, and it has force closed twice, but it has been running). I am up to date on all my apps and never lost my favorites on ios (and now have them again on android, but my cheap prepaid is glitchy so I still use my ipad for SB and just run perk on the android).

My ncraves have been weird off and on for several days. I haven't been able to run The Chew for over a week (it stopped crediting, and then it started getting a virus-y ad, and now it won't advance past the first video). My ncraves disappeared for at least 3 hours last night, but they were back this morning and running fine other than The Chew. I've been having shockwave problems all morning, but that is probably my pc (it is disboards, hotmail and disney as well as swagbucks).

 

[RainSW6]

I just got 31 SB for searching "disboards"

Been running SBTV all day and just noticed that my bonus rounds have jumped to watching 15 videos per 2 SB. It ran watching 8 videos for SB for a while, and has now switched to that. Ugh!

Same here. The past few days it has been running non-stop. And recently it changed up to 15 videos. I hope it's not a trend.

In other news, not sure if anyone mentioned it but international SBTV users are now limited to 10 SB a day versus American SBTV users (36 SB a day). I hope it doesn't make its way to us.

 

[LJSquishy]

SBTV hasn't been working today for me, either. I'm on an Android device.

If you haven't already, try force closing the app and restarting your device. Mine stopped working last night and this afternoon I tried this and it is now working.
