  • I've have a few questions:

    1) I've entered a number of competitions which state that I would ger X swags - but once I've entered I'm not receiving them? Anyone know why?

    2) I keep getting a message on trusted survey's that I'm already registered, but when I click to log in is say's error - this has been the case for about 4 days - any idead what could be wrong? (I do not recall registering on this either)

    3) I keep saying the code is out on FB? what is this code and where would I enter it etc?

    4) any further tips on how I can increase my earnings - I only seem to manage 80 -90 swags a day (feels I like doing stuff all evening) and I have no idea on how others are earning so many...

    Thank you

    I use Sandboxie, it is dead easy to use and protects your computer completely. My antivirus warns me when there is a problem and, if it is really bad, it blocks it even in the sandbox.

    I use Sandboxie too, it's pretty awesome and bit of a necessity for stuff like swagging. :)



    Edit: check my updated sig, earnings now in 3 figures! :D
    Swagbucks earnings since 22/05/2012 £135 paypal cash
    Clicksense earnings since 16/10/2012 $100.56 paypal cash

    ta, got this survey too! nice and quick :)
  • The last option which they called 'Passweb' is actually what Barclays has used for years; the website in the video was Barclays website and the gizmo they put their card into is called a PINSentry. I've used it for years and I think it's very secure; you need to have one of your cards, put it in the PINSentry, enter you PIN and it gives you a unique password which is different every time. After you've gone through a load of security to get into the website, you then have to enter this unique password to access your account. I'm interested to know why you don't think this is very secure?

    I bank with Barclays too & love the PINSentry system - When I did the survey the 3rd option was the 3G Passkey which was a nice idea and seems like a logical step on from the Sentry but the single 5 digit Pin code didn't seem like a very secure idea... What's to stop someone intercepting the signals or anything... I would not be an early adopter of that system

    Now if it was something along the lines of the Sentry or the Authenticators that a lot of MMO games use then that would be more secure. You press a button and it gives you a long sequence that is only valid for 30 seconds - This in turn logs you into the system but not your account...You are brought to a secondary level of security with a long character password of your choosing and the website asked for random characters from that... I would consider that secure... Each authenticator is tied to your account and the random strings it produces are specific to your account... tied that in with your own chosen password and Bingo...:beer:
    Swagbucks:
    2012 = £225 (august onwards)
    2013 = £400 so far...

    @where_to_start

    1. You are right, they are competitions, there is no guarantee. They are a CHANCE to win, nothing more.

    2. No idea I'm afriad, hopefully someone else can answer this one for you.

    3. We cannot post codes but we can post where they are so FB = facebook (ie on the swagbucks facebook page),
    blog = swagbucks blog (can be found from the swag bucks home page)
    If you find a code, you can enter it in the "Gimme" box on the right hand side of the homepage.

    4. If you hoover over "Earn" in the bar at the top, you'll see all the ways to earn. You can watch swagbucks tv, do tasks, etc... There are lots of tips thoroughout this thread. Just keep trying :) We are all friendly people who try and help.

    I've only been doing SB (swagbucks) since the end of July, and try just to get one amazon voucher a week, so I don't do loads and loads on it. Just surveys and videos etc...
    Hope this helps.

    I've have a few questions:

    1) I've entered a number of competitions which state that I would ger X swags - but once I've entered I'm not receiving them? Anyone know why?
