it was so much quicker over the weekend with no adverts or very little anyway!
Yeah, same here. Getting ads every video on SBTV while over the weekend I didn't get a single ad.
edit: after 3 sets of 5 videos doing it, I'm now not getting ads any more. Strange.0 -
Since signing up for Swagbucks, i've had nothing but scam phone calls, i have now deleted the email address i used as it was a separate one and have closed my Swagbucks account and other survey site accounts.
I was trying to earn money and not get scammed into losing money.
Just had a call from what sounded like a NIGERIAN lady saying i entered a competition to win some Tesco vouchers, she had all my details and just wanted to confirm them in case i was a winner.
The she asked if i play the lottery and i said yes but i haven't won anything and then she started going on about the lottery and euromillions, i knew what was coming next, i guess it was to play using her company and give her my bank details (F**K O*F) so i hung up on her. The number she called me on was 02037019260 bewarned.
I am sorry i signed up for Swagbucks and other survey sites now as they have my details, thank god they don't have any bank details as i would have to close my account to be safe.
I know lots of you are trying to earn extra cash as i was, this is my personal opinion and is not meant to put people off, just be careful. It's great earning money so easily, but getting scammed out of god knows how much and the thought of not getting it back would be devastating.
Going Bankrupt was bad enough.0 -
Does anyone have any information for the survey soiree? Everytime i click the box on the homepage it just takes me to gold surveys with no information0

I have been a Swagbucks member since 2012 and I can say that I have never had this problem coming from them. Then again, I have an old mobile with a free sim card and no money on it (I actually got SBs for getting it) and I give that number only. I use a spare email address for offers and the rare surveys that ask for it. I would never have given my normal number or email to this kind of sites!
If you take basic precautions (spare number, spare email, good antivirus and something like Sandboxie) , Swagbucks is a good little money maker. I make an about £50 / £60 a month from them and they are not my best earner

Here you go:Starting Monday, July 27th at 8am BST through Friday, August 1st at 7:59am BST you’ll earn your next Swag Up in one of two ways:
EASY EARNER: Attempt 5 surveys between Monday, July 27th and Friday, July 31st and you’ll receive a Swag Up for a 25 SB Rebate (Completed Surveys Will Count As Attempts)
OVER AND ABOVE EARNER: Attempt 5 surveys each day of the promotion and complete 1 additional survey within the week and receive a Swag Up for a 150 SB Rebate This means one day you will need to have at least 6 survey transactions (5 Attempts Plus 1 Complete)
In order to qualify for the OVER AND ABOVE EARNER tier, one of your days will need to fall into one of the following categories:
DQ/OQ from 5 Surveys plus complete at least 1 Survey

Apple Crumble,
I just find it frustrating and annoying, you keep getting asked your name and address etc and how many people live in your household, any children under 18 or 16 and their D.O.B.
When i start some surveys, i only answer a couple of questions and then get a sorry message saying i can't continue.
PM me the best survey sites you use for me to look at.0 -
