    Thanks thats what I thought, but yesterday was the weekend and hadn't changed, so wasn't sure, but it is 2 weeks since I joined so thought maybe it might be that?
    When you first join, you're given lower daily goals than normal, as they like to ease you into it, but at the end of that initial period, which would appear to be two weeks, you're given the same first daily goal as everybody else.

    This sums it up totally for those of us who do not do surveys. No encrave makes it difficult to hit those 3 figure targets.

    That's the whole point for Swagbucks. It means they don't have to pay so much out in bonuses, so they make more money.

    However, when you get a 39SB search win for 'crystal cathedral', it doesn't half ease the pressure!!

    Some of us barely ever get a search win a day any more and when we do they tend be 5s.
  • I've never used the Swagbucks Search since AVG found over 80 tracking cookies, and 3 trojans linked to their engine. Not worth it for the slowness, and pittance they pay for using it.

    Actually, it's been hard to tell whether they finish tomorrow or today. The blog post says "...starting Monday, January 4th at 8:01am GMT through Monday, January 17th at 7:59am GMT...", and the Collectors Bills tab on My Account just says "04 January - 17 January" - so I suspect it ended at one minute to eight this morning - unless anybody's had a CB since then? My only one today was before that.

    And it's certainly not the first time SB have got the day of the week wrong for a particular date. They really are extremely careless.


    Edited to add: I'm wrong in my guess above - I've just had a 5SB Collectors Bell, so they must have meant 7:59 on Monday January 18th, not 7:59 on Sunday January 17th. I do wish they would get things right first time!
