    I'm stuck on 33/60. I never thought such a relatively low target would be causing me such trouble...
    Things I have done today:
    NOSO/Poll/Toolbar
    2 search wins (8 SBs and 10 SBs)
    A TS that didn't credit (M&S clothes)
    The FB code for 4 SBs
    2 SBs for games
    2 rounds of SBTV
    A facebook security thing... didn't credit
    No surveys
    No vids
    No offers want to credit

    Chrome is playing up a lot for me too, miwa. Tabs freeze and I have to click on another then back again to the first to get it to load properly, I search and just get a blank page until I again click on another tab. If this continues I'm going back to Firefox

    Have you got the toolbar open? If so go into your settings and disable it. Chrome freezes for me when I use the toolbar. You can always open just once a day to get the Swag Buck.
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:

    How do you disable and re-enable it? (sorry, I'm a technical dinosaur!)

    *Edit* Ignore me, I figured it out and things run soooo much quicker without it!

    I've not got the toolbar on Chrome, mrsyardbroom, only of firefox. I tried it last year and it made chrome completely unworkable. I've actually got no toolbars on chrome so I don't know what is causing it. I've searched and this was a problem for a lot of people last year but then google fixed it. I think the next step is to disable extensions one by one to see if that fixes it :(

    maximus_leeds - I never bother sending STOP to these messages anymore as it usually doesn't work.
    I just added the number to my blocked list so I won't get bothered anymore

    Good idea - shall get on the blower to Orange in the morning and get them blocked. Big thanks for the reply :)

    Hi Miwa, I've done a couple of offers today which have credited.
    * One is to sign up to a Change4 Life newsletter on Trial Pay which got me 23sb.
    * One to request a free O2 sim card on Paymentwall which got me 29sb.

    That second one was a lucky find as I wanted a new sim card anyway for a new business I'm setting up :T

    I hope they help!

    change4life have yet to credit me... I signed up a week ago. It's a joke, really. Especially as if you go onto one wall it pops up in your face!

    Anyway, less moaning! I finally got a DS. The crisp one! :)
