    Hello Everybody!

    Just come across your thread and thought I would give it a try, before I commit any cardinal sins, is there any advice for me?

    Having tried a few items on the site the one that has me asking the most questions are the surveys. The first one I did I did not qualify although the question "Have you in the last 3 months attended the 2016 Summer Olympics" had me puzzled, should you be scrupulously honest or do you answer what you think they want to know? The second one I tried pointed me to an external survey site, this I am even more suspicious of, should I be giving accurate details of name and address, I do not want to be inundated with spam and dubious offers, or is there some integrity checking I am going to fall foul of if I am inconsistent in my answers.

    One other question, I am using Chrome do the videos not work for anyone else?

    Thanks in advance for any advice,

    Occy

    HI Occy :)

    As far as i am aware SB has a bulls****omiter built into the surveys - i have read about people saying they got messages about inconsistent replys. I have always tried to be relatively consistent with my answers so don't know from experience if this is the case.

    A lot of the surveys will be for external sites as SB hosts them rather than owns them as such - they are all for reputable survey sites if you go through trusted surveys or the daily surveys - some of the special offer ones might not be so reputable.

    If you sign up for the special offers i would suggest using a disposable email address as you will get offers coming through from them.

    I'm having an awful day!

    Tried for the daily surveys twice, and not qualified for a single one for the first time ever!

    None of the offers I have seen on here and completed have credited.

    Currently watching SB TV, but I'm only up to 34 according to the Spring Meter, and 190 overall! :(:(:(:(

    I've won small amounts on a couple of searches, but I think this is the worst I've ever done on SB's.

    Think I might give a couple of games a go - do you win on SB on all of them ?

    xx

    Aw :( not sure why the offers aren't crediting for you - might be worth clearing your cookies too!

    I just got a search win so might be a good time to try for another yourself.

    Most of the games work - i have come across one or two that dont. I am currently using worDrop and it credits for me every 2 games (make sure you submit a score at the end)

    Good Luck xx

    up at 6.15 due to easter bunny excitement!

    on sometrics under surveys there's a jobsite survey for 7 sb, doesn't work for me - links to a download emoticons for fb, but may work for others (I'm using firefox).

    supersonic have 6 vids showing for me and I've found that I can have all vids from the same section of special offers playing simultaneously and still get creditted (everyone may already know this but I spent 2 months patiently going from one to the next waiting for each to finish!)

    just doing sbtv until the 8am switch over (thanks for that info!) given that I'm up and the litlies have already gorged themselves to queasiness and have requested healthy food for the rest of the day.
    :AA/give up smoking (done) :)

    newbie to swagbucks so please treat me gently - signed up last night. I dont find the site particularly user friendly and this morning I have managed the grand total of 6 points (and that took some time) - 1 for the daily poll, 3 for watching 10 videos!!!! and 2 for playing a game. OMG - I'm stuck now and really need some help as to how to get some points. Cheers
    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Morning Swagbuckers!

    I'm back in work for another 12 hours today, but I am determined to do better than yesterdays rubbish attempt!

    I'm off to have a look at the offers you guys have already posted on here this morning, and then I'm going to hunt me down some bucks.

    Hope you're all having a lovely easter, and eating lots of eggs!

    I'm going to struggle today - out of the house for most of the day! At 818 at the moment, so would like to get to 849 today for my first voucher, even though I'm not likely to make the Spring Sprint today.
