    I see that a lot of us have had problems with surveys crashing before the end. I have just done a Toluna survey which 'crashed' about 3/4 of the way through (had spent almost 30 minutes on it). So I hit the browser's 'back arrow' and it took me back to the page I had just completed. I had to do that page again, but then it finished without any problems and credited immediately. So if a survey does crash, rather than just give up, try hitting the back arrow

    Doesn't work if the survey is in a pop-up window, which seems to be every time I have one that has a problem :(

    I think I've missed it because it's not there now :(

    It was showing in mine earlier but gone now. That's what I get for not doing it at the time.

    Not sure if this would work, but have you tried right-clicking in the pop-up box and then clicking on 'back'? I think that has the same effect

    Sometimes yes, that works. And/or hitting F5 to reload the page.
    (this also works with Pinecone, on the rare instances a page crashes or something).

    However many survey companies do guard against this and implement measures which would mean it doesn't work; especially if the page is entirely flash/shockwave based. Which unfortunately many of the swagbucks (and some of the mysurvey ones too) seem to be.

    Excellent, thanks. That has just pushed me over into 1200SB after 2 days. I'm pretty happy with this progress so far!

    Well I've got to 40 which is pretty good just for watching videos and playing games. I am giving up for today as I can't get any higher paying things to work.
    Does anyone else have problems with the $700 casino tasks paying out? I am doing it right but twice now I haven't got any swagbucks.
