    Is anyone else having trouble with the 'Deception' vid. Despite my better judgement I gave them my FB details so I could 'like' their page and it still hasn't credited for me...

    It didn't credit for me either.

    I just reached Rank 10 on Galaxy Legion via Facebook and the 33sb credited instantly, now at 173/70, I'm also going to try and manage to get a minimum of 137sb a day for the full month to try and get 5 amazon gift cards, so far I've managed that for 5 days (some days I got more sb than I needed), I did spend the first few days watching SBTV until I got the 75 points from it

    I don't know why I keep getting the Education Survey for 432 sb on PL as it always says it's closed - I do work in education and I would love 432 sb! :mad:

    I feel like singing "The Sun'll Come Out Tomorrow" to you all.. If only life were a musical.

    I'll try and help you out but if you know about these already then I'm sorry and maybe you should give up for today! No harm in doing better things for once.

    1. If you don't know about Special Offer wall surveys, go check 'em. Ampario has a 90 SB survey, Opinion 45 SBs, and some others of misc amounts. PaymentWall generally has a few going at any one time. These has saved my bacon endless times.

    2. Go sign up for some spammy offers. No I'm not suggesting to you a sure-fire way to get hacked, use a spam email, I have two, sign up to all the free offers you feel like doing. Some are more tedious than others.

    3. IMO Games pay better than SBTV over all. 2 rounds of Fyoozed = about 2 minutes = 2 SB. 5 SBTV vids = 20-25 minutes = 3SB. If you must must use SBTV only watch the first 10-30 seconds as that's when it credits and you can move onto the next vid. I also choose to mute it and have it running in another tab.

    4. Search tips: you can only win 4 times a day, but make sure to make every search count by moving onto different pages (say, by going to page 5 if the search didn't immediately credit, or clicking the top link then using your back button to go back to the search page - this has credited for me numerous times).

    5 - Refer people. Hasn't really worked for me, honestly, but it works for some. Trick your friends!

    6. Do the Tasks if they work. Boring as they are, they're a better way to make 20 sbs than SBTV. A few of us stay up til midnight when the casino tasks are released, it's a sure way to get 20-40SB.

    7. Click on any Daily Survey to access all daily surveys that can credit to you.

    8. Buy stuff? If you're buying a gift from say, The Body Shop, no harm in getting cashback from Swagbucks.

    9. If you're really desperate, try competitions. For example the 50SB giveaway for 2 SB entry fee - I entered, I didn't win, but I tried, and you might get lucky. Also make sure you upload an avatar so you can be eligible to win 1000SBs every hour.

    25/70 - no chance of me getting the target today unless another survey miraculously appears and even more miraculously I get accepted!

    Just a small warning. Do not be complacent & rely on that new box saying CHECK FOR SWAGCODES on the toolbar.....IT LIES !
    I have missed a few codes because of it. Keep checking in here or "elsewhere" and don't depend on that box. It says there are none available when they bleedin are :-(

    milo, I have a suspicion that the code checker on the toolbar will only show the US codes, some of which are for the UK too. When we get a code for the UK only then it wouldn't appear on the toolbar. I'm not sure if I am correct, but that could explain it

    Have you done the Nielsen download? I got 108 SB instantly for that one earlier.

    I'm having a good day for once, actually had a DS I didn't DQ from. But I haven't had a search win for days now.

    Thanks for trying to help miwa - I most of those things anyway - the spammy offers often don't credit and I am banned from most tasks at the moment as my accuracy went down to 89% and they want 90% (I know they forgive you after a while and you get accepted again)
    I haven't tried Opinion Surveys yet - will try that before giving up completely for today
    I know it goes in waves so things may improve....
