Instant Survey 4SB - 1 question on spending abroad

I had a whole page of gold surveys but got instantly disqualified from practically all of them, annoyingly spent 15min on one long technology one wanting to know about all the tech gadgets I use but it didn't go back to the swagbucks page at the end and credit... I never made a note of the survey number so I won't put a ticket in as they weren't helpful last time.

I just did this too. :mad:

Survey number is 263973, avoid it! I answered about 10 minutes on technology and operating systems, before it threw me out because all the spots were apparently full. I have put in a ticket, I hate surveys that get a lot of information from you for free.

I'm having the same problem with being instantly disqualified without answering any questions, very frustrating - if I don't qualify at all then don't offer them to me!

Or they are dumgam surveys, I've wasted enough time on those in the past, answering loads of questions only to be disqualified, that I just click straight off them now.

Not a good day so far.

I think once the end of the month comes the new targets will deter people from doing swagbucks on a daily basis its had that effect on me.

I'm with you on that one although February is a good month to get the full bonus as it is shorter but it is using most my time watching stuff after maxing out the apps and getting the usual nothing from wasting time on the surveys. Unless swagbucks puts things back to some achievable targets without spending all day chasing the points I'll be giving up on the daily target and just running the apps for those few points and leaving it at that each day.

And when you look at it in perspective - the bonus earned for achieving the daily target 31 day streak amounts to earning around an extra 6p per day. I think my sanity is worth more than that!

I no longer bother with the targets or streaks, I do stuff that is easy to do and fast as I do have a life! Any bonus is exactly that, a bonus and so are the vouchers - nothing to stress myself over for a minimum wage of 5 p per hour (or whatever...).
Recommended 25 sb GS, 5 mins or less on Public Transport where you live.

Ah to put a price on our sanity! Yes definitely worth more than 6p a day.

Also remember if you don't reach your targets they get reduced. As a number of you are saying, it can be extremely stressful if you play their games and try to reach ever higher targets. You DON'T need to hit the targets, though that extra 600 or so at the end of the month is very useful (even if, in real terms, it is worth very little). Just do what you can and if it is only 80 to 90 a day (which I still think is easily achievable) it is still bonus money (and like I said above, they will lower your targets so making getting those extra bonus SBs more achieveable).

Also, a number of us are annoyed by the Watch videos which are 20 for 3SB, but, you can just let them run through and every 20 or so minutes return and set up another set. The career language ones are good for that imo. Much better than babysitting the 4 or so for 1SB.

Are the discounted gift cards available only in January or next month too?
