    How do you manage to get away with that?
    Most people would be hauled over the coals if they did that - paid to work - not earn money via surveys etc.

    I don't get instants on my phone - ever and only occasionally on Firefox but it's mostly cos they disappear so fast.

    A lot of other people here use it at work. I didn't say I open the site and constantly answer surveys from 9 to 5.
    I have breaks that I can use however I like.

    Seventh Anniversary Combo Breaker Stoptober Survivor
    Having a nightmare morning on Swagbucks.... Done the 80sb survey on greeting cards... Completed it, only to be told I didn't qualify! Then done a 50sb gold survey (something about watching films on different media) again told didn't qualify at end! Just tried games & they won't load, chrome saying about unsafe scripts, tried allowing them, still nothing.. Cleared cache... Still Nothing.. Can't get a search win for love nor money... After 2 hours I've earned 6sb from the actual site (have the apps running, at least they seem to be fine!) it's going to be one of those days methinks :o

    A number of people, including myself, seem to have had trouble with the greetings card survey. I also had similar problems with another 80 SB survey from Global Test Market meaning that I was 160 short. I raised a ticket about both of these with them and today they have credited me with 160 sbs! I also received 2 nice emails from customer support apologising for this. So....

    Put a ticket in for this flaky survey.
  • Beware of partner survey388185 length 20 mins for 55SBs. I must have spent 5 to 10 minutes on it then it screened me out saying I didn't qualify. About time they brought limits into how many questions before screenout.

    Thanks Barneydog! I've summarized below most of the shortest available today, but do please tell us all if you've spotted another. :D

    (It just crossed my mind, if we all favourite the very shortest clip, and run it for the max each day (e.g. a Lifestylz clip 9 x 15 = 135 plays), will we damage our chances of keeping this easy source of SBs? Don't know how sophisticated their monitoring system is, or whether it matters. But I think where there are several clips within a second or two or each other, I might favourite more than one.)

    As far as I know, most people in the US only use the shortest clips and I believe these apps have been around for years now?

    This website really does make people paranoid doesn't it? If they didn't like people doing this, they should just remove the option to favourite videos on the app! Just like the argument with SBTV where people click to the next video after 30 seconds!
