    No no no no no. I just took the cold medicine survey, finished it, it thanked me, and then...nothing... no points... I feel like crying. Goodbye cruel world.

    Just did that one, it was sooooo boring but credited ok.

    I did this one as well. I had clearly got to the end of it, and then instead of congratulations I got sorry you didn't qualify. The good news was I managed to get another survey, which credited OK.

    Just to say I do always stick to the very clear rules - I know you can only do one daily survey a day, and if I get a congratulations screen and it doesn't credit, then I never try another one. However with this one, I got a sorry screen (despite doing all the survey), so figured I'm fine to try again. It is so frustrating though.

    When do Amazon gift cards get credited to you please? And how do you know when they have been? I traded my Swagbucks for a £25 Amazon gift card a few days ago but nothing yet.

    I've just completed this one on Chrome and it credited OK for me. It was a long and boring survey but at least I've got the target for today.
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:

    I don't think there is any set time so we can't say. Sometimes it is same day, other times I have waited a week to 10 days. When they are credited, you get an email and they appear in your account under the my giftcards heading.

    They can take up to 14 working days but generally sooner, you will get an email to say they are in your account.
