    You have to wait until the task meter is full up before they credit the points. There's an easy search task to do where you have to look for the correct terms in the search result and answer a few questions for 3 sb.

    I thought that I'd earned a few (10-12) points with the tasks, in my early days of using SB. However when I finally discovered the swagbucks ledger, I discovered that I'd not earned one single SB.

    It doesn't transfer to your account til you get 100% = 20 sb. The good news is that they'll still be there - if you did another 8sb worth of tasks you'd get the whole 20 still.

    And for the record, I tried that one with the 4 search engines and got binned out for getting less than the minimum accuracy. Each question they said I got wrong but the reason they gave didn't make sense or was totally incorrect ie. they said it had no telephone number when it did. Weird.

    I do usually find a few tasks each week that I can just mindlessly sail through and give me at least a few hundred points over the week. And I always do the casino one - and sometimes there are 2 or 3 of those which will add up to 20 sbs over 5 days :- 120 over the month and take only a few clicks to do.

    Thank you - maybe I need to be more patient.

    hi guys managed to log onto swag bucks today and yesterday. got my first £5 amazon voucher yay!! I'm aiming to get one per week but that all depends on how often i get to log on.

    You were right! I did one task worth 2 SBs, and I was credited with my first task 20 SBs.

    Thanks :)

    Ha re the task I am glad I was not the only one it made very little sense to. I thought it did but the answers were making no sense to me either. I usually manage a few a week as well. I do not do many but I do about once a week.

    i quite like the find the address one when they have it, really easy but low paying but I can plod when watching tv. x

    I agree with doing the tasks whilst doing something else. Generally they don't pay well enough to do otherwise - the 10/12 sb Fisher ones are great as you can rack up up a few 20sbs before they stop you doing any more but the 2-4 ones are fine with something decent on tv.

    Think i'll give the tasks a go, running out of other stuff to do. Under the likes of 'peanut labs' have you all entered all the 'win an ipad 2' type things? Bit wary of of legit they are but there's quite a few points there and i've done pretty much everything else :)
