    Mine are all UK. Did you sort out the postcode thingy? Are you UK as in N.I. or are you Ireland as in ROI?

    Wow, LUCKY YOU! I've been having problems for weeks. I find I have to play several rounds, get my 2 SB. Come back later, use a different game to get 2 more and so on, and so on. Used to be so reliable!

    I haven't even got that today, 20 runs though swagasaurus run and zip :mad:

    Instant survey on homepage, 12SB but only credits 6SB - another ticket going in

    It's up to 12 sb so it's not necessarily going to be 12 every time sometimes it will be 4 or 6 there was even one for 19 yesterday.

    Can you tell me where you got this information from?

    I'm not having any problems with getting SBs for games, I receive the 2 SBs per 2 games regardless or whether an advert played or not.....strange!

    Thanks, I'll try clearing cache and such then. Though even with trying a different browser that I don't usually use and so should have an empty cache (Google Chrome), I had the same problem.

    A lot of people seem to be having probs lately.

    Yeah I also saw some comments on their Facebook that the games hadn't been working consistently for some. Normally I don't have a problem, just been happening recently. Odd.

    It was mentioned a few pages back that games crediting is irrelevant to the ads playing.

    True, I think Swagbucks support mentioned that. That's good then. Though realistically the Swagbucks company don't get any profit from people running the games unless adverts are shown. Effectively they're just losing money rather than passing on a share of profits to users. So if they're not doing it now, I imagine they may eventually start shaping payouts based on ad availability...

    Sort of like the recent desperation we're seeing on Swagbucks UK Facebook about Encrave. Many are saying they have no interest in it because they don't get much of a return/payout, especially compared to American users. Whilst Swagbucks staff are saying its because there aren't much advertisers for the UK Encrave. They're now asking people to purposefully access Encrave at certain times of the day to arbitrarily boost audience share in the hope some companies will take note. Like TV network ratings - if a show at 4pm looks popular, advertisers will want to place their ads around it. It's really a shame the UK Swagbucks has that lack of interested companies :(

    Thier system might think you are in the USA ... you will be able to tell if USA codes work and UK only ones do not. Also check your profile.... if your profile is wrong change it or put a ticket into support.

    It could cause you big problems when you cash out and they want you to veryfy your address etc.

    Probably from a leftover from their talk like a pitate day a couple of days ago ... Friday I think it was.

    Long John Silver would say things like 'Ahoy me Hearties' or 'Avast, me hearties' ... thus hearties meaning shipmates/friends.

    SB used it as one of their twitter the other day as well.

    I knew I heard it somewhere before. I think that could be it, thanks :)
