Swagbucking into 2014
Comments
-
Just wanted to say "hello" and thanks! Been SB'ing for a week now and this thread has been really helpful.
It was a slow day but just got a survey for 50SB0 -
Very annoyed with Swagbucks right now.
Saved up for the Sale for ages, and when it came to it they said I had to send off for a verification postcard instead of using email like I have for the other 8 purchases I've already made. I could have used text verification, but all the phone numbers I tried "Don't work with our system". I don't know what phones would.
I contacted them twice and received two very stock messages back about how to verify my account. I don't want to know how: I want to know why it changed in the first place.
Suffice to say, they wouldn't change it back, and told me this morning I HAD to use the mail verification. It takes 5-7 days to come. I thought that it would be the same as email, you ordered your reward and then verified it. But no. You can't order anything until the pin has been entered. That means I can't order anything for another week.
In short, I can't actually buy anything in the sale because Swagbucks have changed the system without informing me. I feel like I've been cheated for no good reason. No more swagbucking for me unless they do something to sort out this mess.
Same thing happened with me, I just got a standard response as well. I contacted them through the 'Help Center', are there any other contact details for Customer Services, or is this it?£268 Swagbucks since 10 Feb 2014

The pin in the post is to verify your account/address and should only have to be done once.Everyone has to do at at some point and those of us who were able to do it by mobile a few years ago are now also having to do it by post.( because the mobile number doesn't prove you live where your account is registered to).The email/security question system will still have to be done for each reward ordered.0 -

I emailed them and theyve said they'll reimburse me sale price when i buy mine if its just after the sale, worth contacting them asking if they will do this x0 -
