    Wondering if I have been banned from the PL surveys. Just tried the 2 that came up and they just took me straight to a did not qualify page. Seems a bit odd.

    I didn't take note of the survey id so won't be able to do that today but will remember to take details next time :)

    You really need to take a screenshot of the survey (I take a screenshot of the first page to show the time that you started, one at the end of the survey if possible, and a screenshot of the congratulations page) - but do not do this if it's a Brain Juicer survey because it will tell you off for breaching it's terms and then DQ you.

    Swagbucks ask you to leave it a couple of days before submitting a ticket because occasionally surveys do credit one or two days after (sometimes longer) - it has happened to me twice, I think, since I joined in July

    I just did a daily survey about bread - half an hour of question after question about bread and buying bread and eating bread and different kinds of bread and brands of bread and more bread - but shouldn't complain because at least it was a survey, and it credited. I'll definitely not be eating any bread for the rest of today though :j

    Re the games. They used to credit after every second game but they don't necessarily do that any more. They've changed it so that the info reads,
    Play for free, and earn Swag Bucks periodically as you play. Simply explore the titles at Swagbucks Games and you'll be earning in no time.

    It's annoying when you spend ages playing the games and then they don't credit.
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:

    I don't think you will have been banned - that happens to me sometimes. I think it's just demographics :)

    Got a few repeating 1sb Tesco Toy Team videos on my homepage - the VTech one doesn't always seem to credit but the Lego one does.

    I've found that before submitting a high score, leave it for about a minute or so on the final screen before going back to the games page, then it usually registers for me (same for those without the option of a high score, such as the European Cities game - just leave it on the final screen for a minute or so). Hope that works for you mrsyardbroom
