    Haha milo72 - it does look like an orgy ;)

    Thanks for the comments everyone. Will stick with it, just having a bad week.

    Still not had a DS, just getting the "Sorry we have nothing for you" message.

    Paulshorse - Thanks for your message :beer: Everything up to date so not sure why I'm getting nothing.

    I guess it's just the way it goes, was just hoping it would have picked up by now! I keep missing all the codes as well! And, sods law, tried the 300SB Dell panel, didn't get accepted and then didn't get the 3SB for being disqualified!

    Hopefully tomorrow will be better :D

    Seriously though, thanks to everyone on this forum for supporting each other. Very grateful

    Sorry to hear you're having a tough time. I did recently with not being able to access lots of functions but it has picked up a little. I have never been one of the big earners and I am happy to get 200 SBs a day. I just did a Daily Survey from yesterday - it was about newspapers and news sites - really short. Give it a try.

    PS I did the Dell survey from the In box and I was rejected and didn't get the 3 SBs either
  • Only just discovered SB yesterday thanks to this forum - where have I been?!!!

    Think I had a successful first day, finished on 217 SB.

    I have a question...I've already done a couple of "Ken Fisher" tasks, and through googling about SB yesterday to find tips, kept hearing about these tasks. So who is Ken Fisher and Fisher Investments? Why do they have tasks about them all the time? I don't really understand it - is it a company paying SB to have people categorise their google results over and over? Couldn't they get a computer programme to do that?

    Whoop, finally got a DS, was very annoyed earlier after seeming to have finished the soft drinks one and being told I was DQ'd at the end. Just need 7SB now to hit todays target.

    Basically yes, pretty much all of the tasks are based on categorising things, things a computer might be able to do but probably a human can do better. It probably costs peanuts to them anyway when you think of the value of a swagbuck to us.

    Just got offered a 50sb TS to join Gfk panel, but on completion was told they weren't recruiting anyone????.....no sb's.....

    Same here Cath, annoying. Managed to get a DS and TS already today though (thought the TS was going to be really long, got to 31% and the categorising q's then it finished a credited - about online security) so 140/80 for today so far.

    Might leave it till tonight now - worried about the amount of time I'm spending on it! Worried about tomorrow as well as am out all day and evening....will I make target?!

    45SB Opinon Survey from TP, target smashed. Will most likely be mooching around online and keep SBTV running for the day as it's my day off and I've nothing planned for once. :D

    PL survey for 60sbs - I was DQd for saying I'd bought fragrance in the £25-£34 range.
  • Can anyone tell me how long the amazon vouchers are valid for? Will it last until December or should I just keep my points until I can get a higher value voucher?

    And any experiences with Paypal? Time it takes to pay out? If they actually pay out ect.....:)
