Free 2,040 points @ Swagbucks (expired - but have you received your reward?)

jraf

Hi,

I signed up through MSE's promotion earlier this month.
Has anyone received their bonus 2,040 points yet? I made a purchase through swagbucks on M&S for £45 on 10/07/16 my SB points (113) are still pending and will be paid in 13 days apparently but there has been no mention of the bonus 2,040 points!

Swagbucks pays you points (called SB) when you click through and spend at around 500 selected retailers, including M&S, Argos, Homebase and Debenhams. The points can then be cashed in for gift cards, PayPal credit or other rewards.

Usually you only get a few points for spending via Swagbucks, but newbies to its Shop & Earn cashback offers who go via this MSE Blagged Swagbucks* link by Tue 19 Jul will get 2,040 bonus points if you click through to a retailer and spend £25 or more (as well as the normal points for your spend).

That gets you at least £10 in vouchers or PayPal cash. But we've blagged a trick to get you up to £12, if you go for the Amazon gift cards (more on that below).

You should only use this deal if you were planning to spend at one of the 500 retailers anyway, it's not an excuse to overspend. It's worth noting it can take up to 32 days for your voucher to be available to claim, so you can't use it on your £25 spend.

Warning: Don't enter any additional promotional codes when you make a purchase via Shop & Earn, as this will invalidate the MSE bonus offer.

How do I get the £10 voucher or cash?

Once your points have been awarded (it takes up to 32 days), visit the 'rewards store' to choose which gift card you want - Amazon, M&S, Argos, John Lewis, iTunes and more. It will arrive within 10 working days, either by post or email in the case of voucher codes. You can also convert your earnings into PayPal cash but it costs more points (1,689 = £10 Amazon, 1,989 = £10 PayPal).

How do I boost it to £12?

You can usually only redeem £3, £5 and £10 gift cards. However we've blagged a £1 Amazon option for users who earn this bonus, so you could redeem a free £12 Amazon voucher without having to earn any extra points, by getting a £10 and two £1 vouchers.

What counts as a newbie?

To qualify for the offer, you can be an existing Swagbucks user, as long as you haven't used its Shop & Earn cashback offers before. If you're not sure, visit your account (top-right corner), and check for any transactions in 'My Shop & Earn'.

Hi, I did the same but my purchase has not even tracked!, do you know who I need to mail to get them to verify my purchase ?
On the Swagbucks deals page I cannot find the deal listed in the Expired List to try and get any info, any ideas ?

I made a £59 purchase on 24th June, it tracked at 148 SB and I've been credit that now on the 26th July, but again no sign of the 2040...
