    Not showing for me, and you only posted this a minute ago... this is getting weird.
    I very rarely see the ones other people post about - didn't get any of the ones posted before lunch. Occasionally I can see them on my phone, but not the PC. They must have some kind of selection criteria to say who gets which instants. Thought what that is, God only knows!

    I haven't been on swagbucks long, but it seems that redeeming gift cards is taking longer the last couple of weeks. I am owed 5 £5 so far this month. I wonder if that is connected to the drop in SB per survey/video? Maybe they don't have the cash to pay them out, or am I just being paranoid?

    I should imagine they are getting loads of £5 orders because of the sale and therefore they are taking longer to process. I normally saved SBs until I cashed out at about £25 but at the moment I am doing it every 620SBs as I am sure everyone else is.

    They obviously pre-order the giftcards in batches as when I have got them through before they are dated a few days before I even placed the order. Maybe they used up their stocks and it takes longer to order more.


    So yes maybe the drop in SBs is to slow it all down.

    Right, that makes sense. Thank you!

    When one gets posted, try refreshing the main page a few times. Works sometimmes but not always, it is a bit random. But make sure you don't have an ad blocker active or you won't see any at all.
