    Thank you for the information on surveys. As Swagbucks includes surveys they are relevant.
    I run a forum on dog agility and people say one of the best things about it is that the threads can wander right off topic and come back again without anyone complaining. I hope we can do the same on here. This is one of the friendliest threads on MSE. I posted a question elsewhere on MSE recently and got a flea in my ear for not asking on Twitter first! Let's keep the friendly chat and odd post about other things even if it does wander about a bit sometimes.

    I agree I recall seeing posts about horses on the thread now I don't think they have anything at all to do with swagbucks. Sorry to bite back, its not normally me but you have to stop dictating hon. You do not work for MSE & you are not in charge of us. Report the posts if you have a problem but please stop being so bossy to people. We are all adults and we are only being friendly and trying to help each other. There really is no need to make us feel rubbish for trying to be nice.

    Adding ... I don't mean to sound rude. I am back in bed again and never the best at writing without being to emotional when feeling crap but I dnt think we need reminding like kids as if we have done wrong. If we were posting each other referrals or something yes but no referrals have past even via pm. Only simply trying to help people we have met and like online. So no need for a repremand. It upset me x

    PL Keynote survey, anyone done one? I had to use iE as it didn't support Firefox, but it wanted me to download software, so I came off it.

    I done that one, was fine and quick and easy. It was a bit like tasks it asks you to find answers to questions on direct gov then asks you the same questions again using keynote. Was quite fun and easy and credited fine too.

    Did anyone ever get paid for joining the orange one on the TS? Just been wondering if I should pop a ticket in. It seems a waste of time with surveys they always say it's out of their hands.

    Thanks. What about the software you have to download tho?

    EDIT: IE doesn't seem to want to download the software anyway....maybe I should leave this one :think:

    Did it, and no credit.

    You're right - they will always fob you off with surveys. I understand that they are not responsible for other survey companies, but when they ask you to keep screenshots of completed offers and surveys, and then (when you email copies of said screenshots) they essentially say, "doesn't matter if you have screenshots or not" it does tend to get people's backs up. IMO.

    Would be nice if they did something similar to IPSOS, i.e. give people partial credit for surveys once they get more than 5-10 minutes in, eg. 20-30 points.

    Well said. At the risk of going off topic: Get Well Soon.

    I don't think I will bother can't even find the screen shot lol. I take so many in a day my comp is full.

    Yeh that would be a nice idea like the pl one does when it gives you 1sb. I had a classic one yesterday. Was a PL survey and I did the survey and when it finished it moved me pureprofile rather than PL and credited me 5p as if I had not finished the survey. I was so puzzled A) it was a PL survey so how I got rd to my PP account I don't know and B) I completed survey so y did I get 5p lol. I think their system is to complicated that they might not be able to tell how far into the surveys we are. But it would be nice.

    Think will leave the orange one as a lost cause, if non of us got credit. Thanks for letting me know :-) x
