The Swagbucks Challenge - Part 2

You can sometimes go for a couple of days without getting a Trusted Survey (and even then get DQ'd) whereas other days you can get 3 or 4 or more. There are not usually many Trusted Surveys available at the weekend (I've not had any at all this weekend so far). Survey companies are laws unto themselves and getting accepted for a survey or disqualified is something you just cannot predict. You will see posts on here where people are DQd from every survey they try on one day, and yet the next they can be accepted for quite a few. It really all depends on the criteria that the survey companies are needing for any particular survey. The worst part of doing surveys is when you spend 10 or 15 minutes completing one then suddenly get DQd, or you complete one and then don't get credited. All I can suggest is just to keep trying - and keep looking on here because you will see which surveys others have had problems with or successes

Thanks for the reply I will keep trying the surveys then daily, as long as I at least meet the target everyday I will be happy because I don't have too much time to spend on there. I was wondering how high targets can sometimes be? Going through the thread but can't see anyone mentioning any majorly high targets

Thanks that seems achievable, hopefully the larger targets will land on days when I have more time on my hands

I've just checked and the supersonic wall loads fine for me. Have you tried clearing your cache? Or the simple 'turn it off and on again?'

Don't give up! With chrome I ignore most of the 'fancy bits' I just type the swagbucks address into the address bar and go from there. I think it just takes a bit of getting used to, it took me a while to get used to Firefox when I finally realised IE wasn't my only option!

The walls load ok, but have always noticed the warning about firefox prevented from auto reloading message, which is now appearing on home page too and wondered if that was some sort of pop-up blocker that was mentioned on here and maybe a cause of the problems (tho only having major problems today) I have cleared all my cookies, but still had a problem with the vids. I just played Crazy Taxi 4 times just to get bang on today's target.

Hi Claire. I just did all the things Paul suggested and still having problems. I looked at Chrome again, but seriously can't navigate it (its on the Chrome shop tab) I didn't use the link Paul posted for Flash as when I uninstalled it FF suggested I re-install so went from there. Claire, do you get the little message 'Firefox prevented from automatically re-loading' on the Supersonic wall? Really don't know what's going on today and feel like giving up!

Cath I just Googled the 'automatically re-loading' problem. Seems like it has been an issue for quite a few people. Try this:- Go into Options (click on the arrow next to Firefox in the top left hand corner of the browser), then click on Options then Options again. Now click on Advanced and you will see four tabs - General, Network, Update and Encryption. Click on the General tab and look to see if there is a tick against 'warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page'. If there is a tick, then untick it, click OK, close Firefox the restart it. That should get rid of the message. I checked on my Firefox and the box was unticked. When I ticked it, went to Supersonic and clicked on the tabs I got the message at the top of the page. As far as I know Supersonic was working OK for me on Firefox, so this could solve the problem

I've just had a look and my box is unticked too. Haven't tried ticking it yet because I'm not at target and don't want to risk breaking it :rotfl:

That's what I've read on here & on facebook but I've not seen anything from swagbucks saying so. I'll probably be saving for £25 from now on.

Paul and Claire, I checked that option and the box was ticked, so unticked it - vids still not crediting tho:(
