    I'm starting to struggle to meet these high targets now :( even more so when there hasnt been a survey available since Thursday...

    1st May 129sb
    2nd May 125 sb
    3rd 194sb
    4th 224sb
    5th 171sb
    6th 199sb

    Do you think its likely to be this high everyday from now?

    110 for me too, I was going to moan but I have decided not to after seeing Veggieblob has a 255 target! :eek:

    Got 238 as my monthly bonus so a couple of hundred to go before my next AGC then my move over to Neobux (I can't cope with more than one site at once!)

    If someone wants to send me a PM with a referral link that would be great.

    I have got a referral link now:)

    I've not heard of Neobux.. is it the same kind of thing as swagbucks then?

    It is an hybrid ptc/gpt. On the ptc side, you click ads for a very small sum; on the gpt side it is very much like SB: you have offer walls and tasks. The thing is that they pay A LOT more than SB.
    Certainly tasks pay a lot better on Neobux but you have to wait 30 days before offers get credited, although they do seem to pay more too.

    That is only true for the offer walls, Paul; the tasks pay cash and are credited to your account immediately :)

    Yes I know that apple crumble - sorry I didn't make that clear enough. I took Night Nurse last night and my brain is still a bit befuddled. I'm earning twice as much on the tasks as what I do on Swagbucks and they credit instantly

    my goal is 110. on a bank holiday. with no surveys and nothing to do but sbtv.
    not as bad as some of the new folks but this is stupid. will be another day of not hitting target for me. i have been looking over this thread. there are so many on here who are unhappy with things not crediting, lack of earning opportunities etc.

    why the hell don't swagbucks listen? the facebook page is not much better. are the company really that sure of themselves that they think they will replace all of us leaving with new members? they will find that initially it will be ok to earn and then become jaded as they realise there is nothing to do, their targets are stupid or they have downloaded something dodgy. swagbucks used tpo be good when i joined last sept. since christmas it has deteriorated to the point where even those of us who were considered "higher earner" have struggled and eventually given up. the site is barging ahead with its useless ideas (stupidly high targets with no way of reaching them) and really is not bothered is it? i am a bit sad about it as swagbucks used to be an "all things" site where i spent my time and money through shop and earn etc. they made a fair whack off of me.... i am now casting an eye over there and then going to dooyoo where i earn more and there are none of the hassles. i am using top cash back for shopping as the rates are far higher. i have tried to stick with swagbucks, have been vocal in my disappointment. nothing has changed infact it is getting worse now the targets are in. it is sad. ah well.

    if i was a company and there was this thread about me which showed that the majority of users were this unhappy, then i would be on here doing some serious PR work and listening to my customers. i am shocked at how many on here are struggling and unhappy.

    I think you have hit the nail on the head though. They don't actually care tbh. If they did they would be improving it, all they are doing is making it less and less welcoming site. I have earned a decent amount since joining last sept. But it has got a lot worse since christmas like you said.

    Btw, I use top cash back. Great site, never had an issue. Always tracked and they pay you quite quickly. Plus I get cash back from ordering pizzas online! What's not to like ;)

    Swagbucks seem to like being insulted, I just got 6 swag bucks for searching "no f*****g surveys" :D

    On the minus side, 13/110 and no f*****g surveys :(
    Swagbucks started 1/1/2013 - £125 Amazon vouchers :j
