    (would also say, don't judge it all based on a weekend, weekends are always awful)

    Well this is a day and a half so far. I am on 19/80. Have done the poll, NOSO, got 8SBs for a search, played a few games of WordIt. I've been down the home page and done a video but no DSs to be had, all across the walls and there is nothing worth doing except the Oxfam thing. Did it, got the confirmation email but no SBs. Can't fall back on tasks as I have done the maximum allowed on most of them. Unless some surveys get released at 3pm there is no way I am going to make target today. I refuse to do unlimited amounts of SBTV one session is about my limit. Don't really know why it matters to me so much but it does. If I don't make it today there's no pressure to make the rest of February really.

    Survey on Payment wall for 'older consumers' credited for 55SB. I sadly qualified for this at the ripe old age of 43.:rotfl: It's a panel sign up for watching TV.

    I seen that and thought it would be for pension age, so didn't bother until i seen your post, so thanks for that :)

    yes things are dire at the moment aren't they? i have made a decision that i am not going to spend as much effort on swagbucks because there are too many offers not crediting, surveys either unavailable or not crediting and i am not spending my whole days on and off trying to make the target. the bonus for the month equates to a paltry 3.50 ish. really! i have given myself a talking to about this and i think we are being taken the !!!! out of.

    if everything ran smoothly and issues were dealt with then that would be different. it used to be much easier to earn on SB but the company really do not care a jot about their customers because they are big and there will always be others to take our place.

    i feel very disillusioned.

    so.... i am on slicethepie (and that is easy earning) and will be giving more effort to zoombucks i think. will still do swagbucks but i am done with being loyal to and spending hours on a site that is wasting my time and does not give a stuff about me.

    on that happy note ;)

    higher target than usual... yep something is deffo going on. they are making it harder and harder to earn on here.

    And this is the land of free speech!

    I think they deliberately made the target hard today so folks wont get the full monthly bonus, they need to find all these birthday bucks from somewhere.

    Hit target in 10 minutes, shame I missed target yesterday, incorrectly thought I had already hit 21 days but yesterday would have been 21, so lost out on 100SBs. Such is the life and I was so tired I couldn't have cared less last night anyway!

    They may control their own facebook page but they don't control MSE.
    New people to Swagbucks need to learn quickly that it is not the "easy, fun" site that some make it out to be.
    There are a lot of problems.

    Aside from that 35./.80 and don't give a **** about not hitting target.
    Load number 3 is in washing machine and I've been catching up with doing website stuff and clearing emails from my inboxes.
    A lovely day outside .. well overcast but a bit sunny.
    The cats are all chilling out in various places and I'm chilling out as well .. I aint stressing about Swagbucks

    if the problems were actually acknowledged then that would help but they do not have the staff and i don't actually think that they care...
    sounds like you have reached the same place that i have... the screw it place :)

    Its always the same with these money making sites, they go in peaks and troughs... I always sign up to other sites and keep an eye on which sites are the best at the time... Currently doing well on Rewarding Ways, Gift Hunter Club and Survey Mad... Had a s*** month on Swagbucks but funnily enough did really well yesterday because of a couple of offers.

    So yes it can be said, I'm a clicking tart and just hop from site to site... Works for me!
