    The tasks will be crediting but there is a wee bar at the top when u open tasks and you have to get that to 100% before it popps the credits into your account. So if you are doing a task that only pays 1-2 sb it can take a while to fill. Then it's 20 sb usually when it does. Unless the points take u slightly over and u might get 22sb or something.

    I'm confused by your explanation... So if a task is advertosed for 2 sb you can earn more??? Explain! :)

    A 2SB task will add 10% to the meter so you'd need to do 10 of them to credit but if you were at 90% and did a 4SB task you'd have 110%, but rather than carrying the 10% you'll get 22SB credited.
    It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

    No, tasks only pay out when you've done 20sb worth of tasks. So if a task was worth 2sb like in you're example you wouldn't get 2sb every time you did that task, you'd get credited 20sb once you'd done the task 10 times. If you only did it 18 times (for example) the 18sb you'd earned would stay there until you did another task to take the meter at the top of the screen to 100%

    EDIT: I came on here to say that casino tasks are out :)
  • Who else has problems getting credited for surveys? I spent an hour completing a survey for 500 swagbucks. The message that sent me the survey said to wait 5 business days to be credited. I waited 6 days before sending SB a complaint. I gave them a pic from the people who held the survey that said I completed the survey. After a day of waiting, someone from SB contacts me back saying that the survey company was unable to find a successful survey. I should be shocked, but I'm not because this isn't the first time this happened. I am tired of wasting my time filling out surveys when I only get credited for half of them.

    I thought the 10% carried over, so you'd get your 20sb but then the meter would go to 10% not 0. That's how it's always worked for me.

    Mine's always gone to 0 after that but as mostly I do the casino tasks I can't remember the last time I had a 'spare' 10% to check!
