    Whilst I'm not pleased about the reduction, it's worth noting that toolbar tv is running pretty much unattended through all the channels, just the odd missing video within the last couple. A relatively easy 20sb or so, and progress gets carried over to the following day.

    You can use it towards say a BT account and get the full value, if you use the "invoice" yourself method you get £4.63 for a £5 voucher, this is one of the posts earlier in the thread

    Also from earlier

    Amazon and Mastercard for spending £5/700 sb = 140 for £1

    Mastercard self-payment £4.63/700sb = 151 for £1

    Paypal £5/800sb = 160 for £1

    Sorry to be a pain but this is my last question about this.

    Looking at the rewards, it seems to cost less SB/£ to cash out a £5 Mastercard than it does to cash out a £25 one. At 700sb for a £5 card and 3600sb for a £25 one.

    Does it still work out at £4.63 per £5 if you do a self payment of £25 to yourself (i.e, I'd end up with £23.15) or does it have some kind of inbuilt scaling system where you end up being charged less the more you send yourself? If not, it'd make more sense for me to get 5x£5 cards and send them all to my account separately. I do sometimes despair at the amount of time I spend doing this stuff for such little reward but I guess it's all during time that I don't really spend doing much else.

    Edit: The stylist links on Fyber are gone now. Shame because they've been a good source to meet my Daily Discover for a week or so.
  • Don't think I can find a Discovery offer today for the to do list. Tried the engageme ideos on Adscend Media but they never go beyond 0.7 no matter how long I run them for.

    The charges are 20p per card and just under 3.5% of the value but while the £5 cards are on slightly more of an offer it makes very little difference how you do it, you get more to your account with a £25 card but it costs 100 more swagbucks in the first place compared to getting 5 of the £5 cards
    £25 mastercard (£23.95 to account) costs 150.3/£1 while a £5 card (£4.63 to account) is 151.2/£1

    The best value is getting £5 gift cards (for 700 SB) that you will actually get £5 for, whether it's the mastercard and using it to spend, Amazon or M&S etc
