    I've only been on it for about a month, exhausted all the 'good' offers and made about £50 all in. What's left is offers that are just there to mine your data. I stupidly signed up for UseNext and now I'm paranoid that they'll just bill me £170 at some point like they seem to have done to people in the past, for example.

    I honestly don't know how some of the offers get past their vetting. Things like the 'Sign up to win an iPhone" are clearly just data mining scams or spam email machines. I've definitely had an uptick in spam since starting Swagbucks, and I've had some dodgy marketing phonecalls. I've got a code on the way so I can cash out and I'll probably use a Mastercard one-click to rinse the rest of the deals.

    After that I'm going to call it a day. I was doing alright on surveys for a while but now every second one seems to disqualify me after I've answered their questions, then it automatically puts me in another survey rather than sending me back to SB for the 1sb bonus.

    Dont give up so easily, I earn on average 6 x £5 vouchers per month from Swagbucks and have done for over 3 years!

    I dont do the discovery offers at all and very few surveys, there are lots of ways of earning SB with minimal effort.

    That Instant just enabled me to redeem another £5 Amazon voucher which returned the 100SB rebate from the team challenge and also the 50 rebate from spin & win! and enabled me to complete the SWAGO board!

    So thats a 250SB £5 voucher :)

    The last square of swago seems to be quite a hurdle, I've not been able to find a mobile survey I qualify for in all that time, it's so frustrating.....

    Just another update, I've cleaned out the safari cookies (just in case) but it didn't make any difference. Each and every single survey I try either disqualifies me, is full or has a glitch and stops half-way. I'll just forget about those spins and end my misery :mad:

    The mobile survey one took me a couple of days also, I hate doing surveys on the PC let alone on my mobile. and to make it twice as difficult it had to be a gold survey!

    I've been using this for several months now without issue, easy money. Why don't you change your settings so phone doesn't switch off? Ok for screensaver to blank out screen. You need to have both VPN key and the App symbol at top of screen. Use of some Apps (e.g. Candy Crush) seem to switch off the App & I need to click on it again afterwards. They sometimes send me a text to say restart phone if I forget to restart the App. I tried to add another monitoring App, but it disabled Incompass, so I deleted it.

    I have it running fine on my phone and it has no problem with the phone going to sleep, it doesn't need the screen on 24/7. I find i need to go into the app every morning to "wake it up" as it seems to hang over night, but that's it.

    I received an email from them today and they said that they've started receiving data again. As it's my old phone i don't use it as much for searching, etc but I will use it from time to time. Hopefully they'll still keep me on their books!!
