    There is a website which upstairs swagcodes almost instantly:
    http://sbcodez.com/

    They update twitter + fb so if you check either regularly you should have a good idea of the codes. I am not sure whether they are fast on trivia codes however.

    Hate to be the forum police, but using those sites is explicitly banned in the SB rules.

    Just like their pages on Facebook and you can find out, or check this thread! Much easier.

    I haven't read the T&C word by word, but what's the difference between seeing the code here and seeing the code on those sites?

    Does anyone know how long the M&S e-gift cards are valid for? I'll likely order some Christmas food online this year but wanted to know if they would last until then (around October time to pre-order food)

    They are valid for 24 months. I just checked one of mine I recently printed, so you should be perfectly good for Christmas. Brilliant idea too, I might start putting some away for that :)

    I tried to download the Swagbucks tool bar but my AntiVirus software said it had a virus. Has anyone had this?

    What's the best way to find out Swag Codes without the toolbar?

    For the record, I've used the toolbar on two different laptops for over 6 months and never had a problem, as have many users here. No alerts from my antivirus software.

    Obviously, it's for you to decide whether you are comfortable using it, but many of us do without issue.

    ETA: I use the version for google chrome browser downloaded from the chrome store on both. Link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/swagbucks-extension/gngocbkfmikdgphklgmmehbjjlfgdemm

    It used to be against the rules to republish SB codes about up to 18 months ago +/- (including here) but they changed and now don't mind.

    I can see nothing in their rules that some sites are allowed and some are NOT allowed ... what page is that on? It makes no sense to only allow places like here and not blog type sites.

    personally i use sc-s.com as they list what country the codes work in.

    Thanks, I've bookmarked it! :D

    Thanks, I'm wary of it the toolbar having done some searching. It's probably a false positive (I use ESET Security) but I'm not going to risk it. Chrome is my main browser but I'm going to install Firefox Addon for Swagbucks and use Firefox just for that.

    I read it within the last 3 months on the dos and dont's page, but you're right- it seems to have changed again without notice!

    How long does it take for swagbucks to be credited to your account after watching videos? I've filled the SB meter 3 times and entered the resulting 3 digit code but my Swagbucks amount hasn't gone up. It also isn't registered in my history.

    They should credit immediately.

    I would submit a ticket into customer services if I were you because if you are entering captchas, then you should definitely be getting the credit.
