When I'm at work, my pc routes through US I think as we are a US company. I have them at Swagbucks too. Don't see them at home!

If you have a UK swagbucks account and your work computer uses a proxy to go through US servers and you are doing US offers, you are possibly at risk at loosing your account if they choose to review your account

For the Crowdflower mobile tasks one needs to install a bookmarklet from Yieldtrack. Despite using Chrome on Android Kitkat, I still get:

Mobile Device Required


You can only access this interface via a mobile device such as a smart phone or tablet.


I have googled and this looks like a common problem. Any insights?

I got same message on my Lenovo tablet( UK model) but Yieldtrack is perfectly working on my mobile phone ( Chinese import).
Don't think any browser matter ,your device must be recognised as a mobile device first.

But a table is a mobile device and the don't recognize it, it's a fault of theirs. They will lose revenues.

Watch out for the job that requires you to find the Financial Events on websites.
Just had all my flags taken away when my accuracy was high enough 83% and it was done correctly within minutes of completing the task I got the notification to say all my flags were removed!
Unbelievable!
Never had that happen the very minute I finish completing the task it is flagged.
No task author should be able to do that.
Hopefully it will get put right quickly so I can get back to my tasks again.
Now back to 0 level until it gets sorted....

Ok just had notification of getting Level 1 and 2 Badges.
That is weird. It can't be fixed already?
In my Work History is says I have disputed the flag.
Unless Crowdflower automatically get it put back again when you dispute it until they can sort it?
Usually have to wait days for any badges to be reinstated...

System

They don't get it put back when you dispute it, as most of the regulars here will tell you (who've recently been flagged and all had to dispute it). Seems likely that the task author just made an error and contact CF to remove it, or removed it themselves if they have access to the relevant area.

Glad to hear it has been resolved quickly.

I know I have had to wait ages before to get my Levels back.
Must be the Task Author made a mistake then.Good job it was just that.
Been enjoying doing some of the tasks that have been showing up recently so I am relieved to not have to wait and lose my momentum.:)

When I've been flagged I got all flags removed, after 20 min flags returned, after another 30 min flags disappeared again permanently. Took about 3 weeks to get them back:mad:
Don't do any task that seems dodgy since this incident, you loose a lot of earnings and can't do anything about it.

Oh well I will avoid doing anymore of that particular task just in case as it is very dodgy. Lost flags before for weeks before so I am more careful now than I used to be and only pick ones I can definitely do.
That task was fairly easy to do so I was surprised when I suddenly got the message to say I had a major flag.
