Swagbucking into 2017

Instant survey 19sb 1 question

Jaffa_pig

I have only been swagbucking for a month or so and learned the hard way that I need to take screenshots of surveys just in case I don't get my SB's. I normally take one at the beginning, just in case something goes wrong half way though, so I know which survey I was doing. I just took a screenshot of the first page of a BrainJuicer survey, the page that says thanks for taking part, maximise the screen, click here to begin, the usual stuff and not only did it screen me out of the survey, it said they knew I tried to take a photo of a confidential area and they have blacklisted me! There was nothing confidential on the page at all! Should I contact Swagbucks? I don't feel like I have done anything wrong. I am now worried about taking anymore screenshots!j

For those that get no Ads on EngageMeTV (Discover, AdscendMedia), again for me, it seems to be about flash player not being used for anything else at the same time. On and off yesterday I tried it whilst having Watch and ToolbarTV running on other tabs/browsers, and got not a single ad. I closed everything, then just opened EngageMeTV and got four ads before first 4 videoa. Discover ticked! It may have been a coincidence, other people discounted it last time I posted, but the same has happened again this morning. So, for my slightly dated laptop set up (using Chrome and/or Firefox), this does seem to work. I'd be interested to know if someone who has had no or few ads at all has the same result.

Thank you. So far it worked according to your tips. :T

While it might be a good idea to take screen shots of surveys, avoid taking them for any Brain Juicer survey as it leads to instant disqualification. Don't know what you can do about being blacklisted I'm afraid but think this should be a warning to everyone to be careful when taking screenshots.

What you can do is make sure the survey window isn't the active window, for example, bring up a calculator on the side or something, then screenshot the calculator. It's unlikely that the page's programming can figure out you've just done a screenshot.

I never take screenshots and I've never had a ticket rejected ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks, I will try that, or maybe just take a photo of my laptop screen with my phone from now on.

Been doing this just a few days. Is there a swag code published every day to enter to get free swagbucks.

I noticred in the dedicated thread for codes that one was posted yesterday, but not one for today.

Also, is it ok to do completely random searches in the search and win.
Thanks.

Codes are released most days yes, just keep an eye out for them. Tuesday are ispy day usually where several codes are released starting at 6pm(UK) and every 2 hours until midnight..

Fine to do random searches, but don't flood the search. The most you can get is 3 or 4 search wins a day, so once you get one it's very unlikely you'll get another for a few hours after that. Search for things that make sense like "tesco" or "coronation street" and not just nonsense strings of letters.
