  • I joined swagbucks a few days ago and I've already decided I'm not going to bother with the surveys. I've been disqualified from every survey so I've tried so I got excited when I got going on on of todays daily surveys. Just completed over 30 minutes of a daily survey, answering detailed questions about legal providers. Answered over 70 questions, including lots of written answers, before it decided I wasn't suitable for the survey (I thought I had answered the last question and that it was taking me to the finish screen). Feel like I've been had!

    Was it a Hall&Partners survey by any chance?

    Yep:( They are pretty useless and other swaggers get kicked out just like you have, when having completed the majority of it. There are lots of complaints about them on sb fb page as well. I don't think anyone bothers with them anymore. I just click out as soon as I see its one of there surveys. But I would keep trying as the other survey providers are normally okay. Sundays are always a really slow day on sb. So you might not find any surveys today but try again tomorrow and hopefully there will be some surveys to complete :)

    Welcome to the thread and sb btw :beer:

    Thank you :) I shall know to steer clear of those ones in future. Could do without getting RSI for nothing ;)

    I'm going to stick to trying to reach the daily target without the surveys for now, I couldn't bear to spend another boring half hour for nothing ;)

    I don't think i've linked my paypal account to swagbucks so how do they know which account to send to ? unless its done when i redeem the swagbucks. thanks for the quick reply.

    edit: i haven't used paypal much so don't know much about it. i have a paypal account and its linked to my bank account and i've payed for stuff via it once or twice. sorry if my question is a silly one lol

    you don't need to link your paypal account to your swagbucks account, swagbucks will send any paypal payments to the email address you have signed up with, if this isn't the one that your paypal is set up on you need to add your swagbucks email address to your paypal account as a second email address (not hard see paypal help menu) or change the email address on swagbucks but if you're anything like the rest of us you've probably used an account that you don't mind getting abit of spam to :)

    on a side note: Cally
    are you intending to start a new thread for 2014? the first post probably needs abit of a revamp with all the changes, happy to pull together some updated words if you'd like
