  • Just found this 5 minutes survey (in Survey Dashboard) - Small Business Survey - the easiest 138SB I've ever earned :j

    Many thanks for that! Quick 138 SBs.

    This survey is for business owners.

    Just went onto swagbucks, and found it in my inbox - it screened me out after I said what region I lived in! They don't like me, sob ... :cool:

    I'm in the south east, perhaps they want so many people from each region, and yours is complete? Bad luck. :(

    Thanks kippygolf! I think I'm also too old for a lot of survey stuff - they really don't seem to want my demographic :) It doesn't really matter, there's a lot of stuff I can do in the background, but surveys really don't seem to be the way forward for me on swagbucks, I might just have to accept that.

  • Because I've not been very lucky with surveys for the past couple of days, I signed up for the free NowTV trial. Everything went through with any issues and I was happily surprised to see the swagbucks in my account as soon as I refreshed it!

    In a few days, I might do the UKCreditratings trial. It's only 160 points (the best I've been able to find for it on Swagbucks), but worth a go.

    Does anyone have any advice on others that are worth doing? The only other one I've done is Experian.

    I did Video Stripe for 200 without problems in July, but don't know if it is still available.

    SEARCH 'crocodile tears' for 6 SB!
  • 42 SB for 10 minutes survey about what I ate yesterday. Check the Surveys Dashboard for one.

    I am not sure that age is absolutely important just keep in the ABC advertising range i.e. not reliant on state pension or unemployed. Be active i.e. yes I am planning a holiday. I have grand kids and I buy them stuff regularly. I have the latest technology. I buy online. I have facebook/twitter/instagram/google+ accounts. I shop online. I watch paid tv etc. Answer every text question with more than one sentence. Read the instructions. Change your email address every so often. But be absolutely 100% consistent. Probably helps if you live in London
