    Inferno, Swagbucks gets paid whether you do or not. I always chase up non-crediting offers, I'm not letting those b*stards get free money off of me.


    That is a very good point!!
  • 36/70 1 Swag buck for the Toolbar, 1 for the Daily Poll and 7 for searching: night bus lucy rose youtube

    I also had a Supersonic offer credit after I put a ticket in so I got 27 Swagbucks for that. However my ticket for another offer was rejected :mad: The email said:

    "Dear user,

    Ticket #463199 (Sign up to Hotels.com for free to earn Swag Bucks!) has been reviewed and will not be approved. We cannot confirm your offer completion with the advertiser from the proof you have provided.

    Please send us proof (screenshot) that contains all the transaction details including the time and date of completion so we can verify with the advertiser.

    Additionally, please check that you indeed completed the offer through SupersonicAds and not through another offer provider.

    Thank you,
    SupersonicAds Customer Support"

    I sent them a screenshot of the confirmation screen when I put the ticket in but it didn't include the time and date of completion, also I don't know how to prove I completed the offer through SupersonicAds and not through another offer provider. I think they put a lot pressure on us to prove it when they are the ones who screwed up!

    Great little tutorial Paul - however I find it easier to printscreen (ctrl+printscreen for me) + go to imgur.com + CTRL+V into imgur + click the box to edit + crop it using imgur's tool + press enter + use the img code to post here between [ img] codes

    Thanks miwa - I'll do an addition to it when I get time :)

    I have taken alot on board from this excellent thread.

    Through lethargy I have never really queried or raised tickets for non-crediting offers and surveys.

    I don't know where the blame lies; Swagbucks or the offer providers, nor am I particularly concerned.

    I do feel, however, that I must start 'screen-printing' as a Good Practice habit, as they must add up over time and I must rid myself of the thinking that, "Ah, well. Its really free money for clicking a few buttons so I'll not bother kicking up a stink". I suppose this is laissez-faire attitude is not doing me any favours.

    I will now save all screen dumps in a Swagbucks folder, each titled exactly what it is for easy reference, and start raising tickets.

    This may prove to be :wall: , but needs to be done if I am to keep my sanity and patience with Swagbucks.

    Hmmmmm. I do sound like a t**t.

    If you get a Brain Juicer survey (they are orange colour with a brain called Cedric) don't take a screenprint because it will disqualify you straight away. It usually says something like 'we know you have attempted to copy this page which is against our terms and conditions. You have been disqualified from this survey'. A few of us have been caught out with that

    I think it's about bedtime for me - 204/70 today mostly from a DS and casino tasks.

    Hope everyone has a good/better day tomorrow

    Ah yes.....I remember that attitude well !
    I thought the same Inferno. 20 complaints on ,with all being fobbed off with "HAPPY SWAGGING !" replies at the end of total bullshine I gave up. In fact on a few the replies questioned ..
    1/ why i use a different email from my SB registration ?
    2/Why the NAME in my email is different to my SB name
    3/ I was accused of abuse of SBTV watching & warned I was flagged & threatened with my account being banned.

    Now I'm awaiting 2 x AGV & I dread querying the delay ,because last time I queried the delay they told me I was flagged. Jesus wept. I've been captchaing since I joined for EVERYTHING I do. How the freakin heck am I a bot ? But good luck to you. Give Brittany my regards.:cool:

    Blimey! All seems a bit extreme doesn't it??

    Bully Boy tactics if ever I heard them.

    Does that representative from SB ever respond to any post resembling any kind of criticism, or is he selective in appearances?

    :whistle:
  • Bit of non starter yesterday for Swagbucks. I left it at 40/70. Did some casino tasks just now and earned another 20sb so I can make the rest up with sbtv.
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:
  • With 8 minutes to go, i signed up for a vodafone sim card with trial pay for 45 sb and i made my 70sb target for today :)
