    2 dailies and none credit gggrrr

    Im pretty sure they have changed the system to only credit one daily survey in a 24 hour period. Although there is no written info or literature indicating this, this is what ive noticed for several months now.
    Last couple days the todays survey homecard has returned and basically when it shows on ur homepage it means u can complete a survey and it should credit whilst then the card will disappear thus u should stop trying to enter anymore until it returns cos it wont credit. Ive noticed this before they changed to the new layout and my theory happens to be correct for me on my experiences for 3-4 months now.
    Once i complete one daily through the gold surveys page or the homecard and it credits, i wont do another one until the nxt day cos i know it wont credit

    They've changed the rules. You need to wait at least 48 hours before submitting a ticket. I had a daily not credited yesterday. It has been credited today.

    I am trying to run the SBTV app, I don't use it everyday anymore since it burned out my phone battery. But I'm getting a message that says Blocked IP provider and 0 SB available today. Is this some kind of fault? Thanks

    If a range of IP addresses from a particular provider have made their way onto a blacklist for some reason (Spam etc), you could contact your ISP and ask them about it to see if they can speak to the blacklister to resolve it or just wait it out till they drop off the blacklist.
    "sometimes" rebooting your router may give you an IP address in a different block which may not be affected, but its hit and miss.
    Out of interest , who is your ISP?

    Do this:

    - open a browser (from the phone itself) and google "what is my ip"
    - Copy the IP
    - go to:
    https://www.spamhaus.org/lookup/
    and input the IP in there, where is says "Enter an IP Address".

    If it's blocked, you have an option to have it unblocked. It usually takes 24-48 hours.

    If it's not blocked file a ticket with Swagbucks.

    Im saying waiting 24 hours before doing another daily survey after completing one that credits. I always put in a ticket if it fails to credit after 10minutes.

    I use to be able to do numerous daily surveys and they would all mostly credit, i even mind doing 5 one day and they all credited. however this changed several months ago and only ever does my first successful completed survey credits. any completed one after that has always failed to credit.

    If you use BT Retail, you could have false positives. You might safely ignore them.
