Just cancelled my Netflix subscription, a bit disasppointed in it really as I thought/hoped that there would be more content available than there actually is. Hope everyone else has remembered to cancel if they're not keeping it .

I remember someone having trouble a while ago with the SB toolbar disappearing, maybe Rosie? Did you ever get it sorted out? As mine has been disappearing on my new laptop. It's still installed, but has disappeared from the top of the screen, and isn't on the list of toolbars so it hasn't just been disabled... very strange.

I have just installed it yet again lol. I am lucky if it stays for 2 days. Mine is showing in my programmes but just dosn't come up.
My oh has it on his laptop and it has been fine. We both use IE 9 I am Vista and he is windows 7. The only thing I can think it might be is the ebay toolbar as he dosn't have that.
Its a mystery and I am worried that SBucks will think I keep installing it just to get the extra SB.

contact their support team and ask them why it does not show.

so when you open a browser, ie IE, and you type in the search bit, it doesn't come up as a swagbucks search? comes up as bing or something else?

The SB toolbar has its own little search box and its that that disappears

Sweets I forgot to say big big hugs. Hope you can get things sorted.

what I mean is I have SB toolbar installed on Google chrome. But I just open a new tab and type in what I want to search. It doesn't say SB toolbar, and then when I have typed at the end it says Swagbucks search and it then it goes to swagbucks and shows me the search results.

Rosie

oh I didn't realise that. I will give it a try next time it disappears

Aww, what a pain! I've not got the eBay toolbar either, so it's probably not that that's causing it. I'm using IE 8 (don't get on with 9, lol), and Windows 7.

You get 1 SB everyday just for having the toolbar installed, so don't think they'll mind you reinstalling it all the time

Isn't that something you can get by clicking one of those boxes when installing the toolbar - something about making SB your default search engine, I think?
I've not done that as I prefer Google for morst things. I have the SB homepage come up everytime I open a new tab though (helps to remind me to do the poll and NOSO ).

Guess we'll just have to send SB an email. It really is strange though as everything is exactly the same on my old and new laptops (I think!), so there shouldn't be any reason why it won't stay on the new one.

Yes it is! I've only got 4 Amazon listings done, 4 ebay listings up, and three more waiting to be uploaded later. Sick of it all already.

On a positive note, of the ebay items was a really big bundle (84 items - took bloomin' ages to sort out!), I've got it on as a BIN or best offer for £170... put it up last night and have 3 watchers already (also had an offer but we won't mention that as it was a very silly price ).

I have managed to have a good clear out in my bedroom though, so it has been a pretty productive weekend.

Just got my first voucher from gifthulk through:D, a £10 amazon voucher. Concentrating on zoombucks now as I'm close to my first redemption from them now too.
