    Wow, just done a TS for 100sb about films (rentals, DVDs etc), said it would take 20 minutes. After about 5 minutes I thought I was being dq'd, got directed to the completed survey page and it has credited!

    How do you manage to get the other collector bill's?

    Won 'shop' about 10 times now!!! :(

    I think you get them based on the number of sb you win for the search.

    Have a look at your ledger and see if all your searches are for the same number of sb, that might (or not!) verify.

    Just had a TS ask how often I store ice cream in the oven, boil milk in the kettle and make drinks in the toaster...

    I got DQ'd :rotfl::rotfl:
    I just got that!

    One of the questions was "hoover the ceiling" which sounds like a stupid question, but then I actually do sometimes to get the cobwebs down.

    I got DQed too :rotfl:

    daffydog, I had this happen once as well, not with the SwagbucksUK FB page, but with another FB page, it was the only page I couldn't access and was driving me crazy.

    Do you use Firefox? What worked for me was installing FoxyProxy (a Firefox add-on, just go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions and search for FoxyProxy, then install it).

    Hope that works for you!

    Thanks for your suggestion Thrify Felicity. Sadly this does not work for me, I do not have that add on installed and cannot access the SwagucksUK page using Firefox, Chrome or Internet Explorer (the latter used as a last resort as I never use IE) Can't using my phone app either.

    Ha, I answered "once a month" to that one (in fact I have just been hoovering the ceiling to get the cobwebs!) so maybe that's why we both got DQ'd!

    As a last resort ... start a new facebook profile and use that to access SB UK
