Those using swagbucks ???

I haven't had Laptop Guy in a couple days now. Is he gone for anyone else? Tank Top Girl has been gone for me since Christmas. I really hope LTG comes back. My Ncraves have been giving a blank screen for weeks now too. I did contact them about that and got a canned reply that they were aware some users couldn't access it and that they were working on it etc etc. For anyone else who has lost Ncraves, did you ever get them back? I am the only person in my household with a SB acct and am not using any sort of ad blocker. Just wish I could get them going again. I am having to rely heavily on the apps to help meet my first goal which is usually around 100 so it's manageable, unless the apps crap out. Any suggestions/thoughts would be appreciated!

Nope, no LTG. I've had TTG a couple times, very briefly. Definitely not what she was paying out before though. nCraves have been doing well for me this past week. Still not the 4-6 SB options there were before, but I have gotten a couple 4 SB options the last few days.

The odd thing for me on Ncraves is that I get the black screen when I'm at work, but at home, they work fine. It's not a big deal for me because I used to only run them during my lunch hour, but it's still kind of weird.

My laptop is connected to a network, so at first I thought that could be it, but even when I undock my laptop and use wifi, they are still not there at work, but are at home.

I hope he's not gone for good. And I am glad someone is getting TTG; maybe there's hope for me yet!

I have tried to access Ncraves on both my laptop and desktop, which obviously are going through the same home network. And I can't do the Daily Crave either.

I had LTG yesterday. It was just one round. Have you tried clearing your browser history? Whenever i get the blank ncrave list I clear my history and they usually show up. If I don't want to do that for whatever reason I open a chrome incognito window and they are usually always there.

TTG has been at most 1 or 2 a day, and only sporadically over the past week or two. LTG has popped about as often - maybe even less. Again - 1 or 2 day tops lately.

nCraves, for me, come and go somewhat randomly. I don't have enough data points to confirm, but there has been a couple coincidences where I received a sizable bonus of some sort right before they disappeared. One time was a 700SB survey, the other was a shopping rebate. Again, could have been a coincidence, but I'll keep my ears (see what I did there) open to see if there are any other "coincidences" to when they disappear. They usually come back in 2-3 days, although I have had stretches of a week or more without them.

Also, nCraves are both account and IP address sensitive. My account can be blocked at work and not at home or vice-versa. Similarly, wife's account can be fine and mine is blocked, even on the same IP.

Yes, I have cleared my browser history & cookies too. But I have not tried an incognito window. I will give it a go.

That is interesting. I had some decent sized shopping credits to post after Christmas, but nothing else really out of the ordinary.

I appreciate the suggestions and thoughts that people have provided.

What is Laptop Guy?

A guy sitting on a couch with a laptop. It runs jungroup offers and is usually worth 2 SB. He comes and goes in the easy earn section. He is on my homepage right now and can also be found when you are looking at your ledger a banner above it (only sometimes)

What is Laptop Guy?

It's a photo of a guy working on a laptop that pops up under "Earn Easy SB With Sponsored Videos" sometimes. Also sometimes referred to as Jun Group from the name of the company that provides that bit of media/advertising. If you click it, a new window pops up with another button you have to click. That opens a 3rd window with content that you have to keep open for 45 seconds or a minute, depending. Then your 2nd window button allows you to load new content that you have to keep open (but not necessarily in front) for another 45-60 seconds. Rinse and repeat 10-12 times and SB gives you 2 pennies.

Didn't need it to make my first goal, but I could have met both goals with the 500sb survey I just did for a paper towel test.

 

[PerfessorZ]

I need another 100 sb to hit my 2nd goal, so I tried doing surveys. I've spent the last 45 minutes not qualifying for any of them. Now I remember why I don't bother.

The apps ran perfect for me yesterday but I've had trouble getting them to run today. Are there certain times of day they run better? Is anyone else having trouble?

Commercial before every replay of the video keeps happening except for SBTV and EntertaiNow

Some ads are problematic. I always start mine in the morning (I have insomnia so "morning" starts between 3am and 5am most days) and run them until they finish (oh, do I miss the days of SBTV running all day and all night with hundreds of bonuses). Some days they run super smooth and some days they are almost painful (x out of every. single. ad. and every. single. video. has an ad). They've actually been pretty easy the last week or so, which means I am probably in for a world of hurt soon....

 

[Vernie822]

I am so inspired to work Swagbucks like you guys do! You are awesome! I surveyed for a little the other day and today and I'm now up to 500 SB... all excited over here, lol.

 

[Cydney]

I run my apps in the morning. They run much smoother in the morning for me and then I run perk when they are done.
