    Hi everyone - I've plucked up the courage to do a post, so I hope I am welcome here. I've been doing Swagbucks for about a month and I've managed to get a couple of £5 Amazon vouchers. Started off well this month with a 450 bucks Trusted Survey today which credited, but I'm worried that I could be stopped from taking Trusted Surveys because although I answered the questions truthfully, I had to guess some of the answers because it would not let me move forward without putting in an answer (it was about buying business printers etc which I have some input in but not the final say in buying). Thought it would DQ me but it just kept going on. I didn't want to click out because it says you should only take surveys you intend to complete. Now I'm worried in case I get banned. Has anyone else had a similar experience? By the way, I got lots of encouragement from reading all the posts

    I wouldn't worry about this, I do as well like to answer surveys as honestly as I can; your point, should not get you banned, if it did, I would have of been banned a long long time ago :)

    Oh and a warm welcome from exotic

    Thanks Exotic for your kind comments and your welcome - I was starting to get paranoid. I can sleep easy tonight. Oh - just got another Trusted Survey for 100 bucks which credited which means I am now on 619 for the day! I can't believe this - it's more than double what I have managed to get before. Swagbucks really is becoming addictive and so I am going to try to become an active member of this thread and post as often as I can to try to help any other newbies like me. Best wishes to everyone on this thread.:)

    Yes it is. I've had this problem on all walls that have that opinion survey for two weeks now. I've sent screenshots to swagbucks and got various replies. There is a definite problem. It seems to give me american surveys and says I'm in america and I have to change that to the UK then when I click start I get the error.

    The latest message from swagbucks says it's not an error I am just not eligible for the survey but it clearly is something wrong. I can't get anywhere with swagbucks about it. I used to get loads of peanut labs surveys now all I get is this error message

    Who are you with for internet? this has just started since I got fibre optic broadband with BT. I did however try my dongle and it did the same so i would think it is an account error. I have sent a message to peanut labs who have messaged back saying they have forwarded my pics and message to their engineers I think they said and might need to get back to me for more info. So give them a bit see if they sort anything. Shame peanut are my fave surveys. I did delete history and use diff browsers etc.

    It appears to think we are in america though doesnt it as it is pre set to usa instead of uk. xx

    I'm doing a task where you say whether one blog post is relevant to the other and some of these blogs posts did make me smile lol.. much better than spending time sorting the ebay items...

    *one of the blogposts*

    "Well, if I’d gone to work that day and saw one more student playing on their smart phone instead of listening to my lecture on the Civil War, I might have strangled them right on the spot, so I felt it was best for everyone involved if I just stayed home."

    Burntout has received praise from virtually everyone associated with his school district from the principal to the State Comptroller for Educational Financing.

    “It’s really remarkable, what he said,” claims Beanie Counter, the State Comptroller. ”A complex murder-suicide inside the classroom could’ve cost the state millions in litigation, so really, his action of calling in sick is truly admirable. I personally have nominated him for Teacher of the Year.”

    :rotfl::rotfl: was not expecting such blogposts :P

    *edit* even these tasks are long.. some of the blog posts are sooo long :-/
