    Just had a Sometrics offer credited after me chasing it. However, it was 1SB short (should have been 39 but was credited at 38) - this has happened a few times before, anyone else experienced this? :think:

    Genmod - for 1sb, I wouldn't worry about it.
    Unless you screenshot the offer before you did it and could prove it was 39.

    has anyone worked out what a swagbuck is worth?

    It depends how you cash out.

    5 GBP PayPal =1,049 SB (that's each SB worth 0.48 pence)
    5 GBP Amazon=849 SB (that's each SB worth 0.59 pence)


    Although, in any case, 'Swag Cents' may have been a more accurate name.:)

    Hi cally, no I wasn't worried, just curious as this has happened a few times before and it can make it a little difficult trying to decide which ones have paid when I have several claims in at the same time!:rotfl:

    Anyway, this one arrived at the right time and relieved me from having to resort to SBTV.

    Me too, there's just nothing is there. No PL either. I saw a brief glimpse of one for 86sb but was dq'd before answering a question. It's a complete survey free zone!

    Same thing happened to me yesterday. Today I tried an early search but it keeps saying "no search results found"! Not had that one before.
    I used to get 20 sb a day from tasks and now I don't get any (had no answer to my question about why they want me to change browser!) and I rarely have surveys. Half way to the next AGC then I'm trying Instagc.
