  • Sob my little boy wouldn't go to sleep so been distracted. Missed 2 swagcodes, got DQ from 3 PL surveys and SBTV keeps randomally logging me out. Oh and I got a response to my tickets on missing daily surveys telling me to wait 6 weeks and try again. I've responded but doubt they'll take any notice. Now drinking my first glass of wine of the day its a bit late and i feel like I need another

    Not too bad though bowing out on 236. Been running SBTV on and off through the day which helped - 13 rounds of it

    This is a post from Swagbucks UK on Facebook:-

    "there are a certain number of advertisers wanting a certain number of responses. beforehand people were not allowed to do another survey even if they qualified, meaning that users were missing out as no-one was doing them. this way means all the surveys should be done by our users. it's the fairest way, you can do what you qualify for.."

    He says that if you don't get any daily surveys one day, then it's because you aren't eligible for any that day, and it's the luck of the draw. I think, reading between the lines, what he is trying to say is that we are pre-screened before being offered any surveys. If that's the case then why have demographic questions in the surveys themselves? If he's talking about the questions for the tick boxes, then that still doesn't hold water because often even if there are lots of tick boxes, you still can't get a survey.

    The only thing I can think is that the survey companies know which surveys they are going to have available. They ask us to complete the tick boxes and the surveys are matched to the tick boxes. They then release the surveys but only a certain number each day (often I will get a survey one or two days after others have mentioned doing them). You then complete the demographic questions in the survey to match the demographics that the companies are looking for. So you go through two screening processes in effect.

    I think that Swagbucks have been forced to let us do more than one because Toluna aren't getting sufficient responses or they're not getting the number of responses they need quickly enough.

    What does everyone else think?
    I agree Paul.
    I think SBs are getting a rollicking from survey companies needing to make their quota, so they've opened the flood gates.
    In some ways I suppose it's fair enough. Just because I don't qualify for surveys on IT or driving lorries I shouldn't begrudge those who meet those demographics filling their boots.
    Good luck to everyone under the new system:T.
    Me especially obviously.:rotfl:

    I don't know how to set it up, or how it happens etc but I just wanted to check to see if there's a new thread for October as I don't want to miss out!

    Thank you

    Sometimes a new thread isn't created for several months, this one is below the recommended pages I believe, by quite a lot of posts, so I guess it is fine to stay?
