    I'm down to Lifestyle and Entertain Now on my original phone. I'll probably replace it with one of these https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/alcatel/pixi4-4-like-new#contractType=payasyougo

    It's about the cheapest I've found and hopefully as it's android 6 I'll get at least a couple of years out of it.

    DO NOT GET AN ALCATEL PIXI 4. This is my newer smartphone. I've had it just over a year. It runs the other apps but it is so bad. It's pretty much broken. The home button doesn't work now, neither does the pull down notification bar. They keep adding file managers to the phone without your consent. And it keeps kicking me out of apps for no reason. I'm going to have to factory reset mine as it's unusable. I'm looking around for another phone but don't know what to get.

    I don't seem to be getting the 1SB for gold survey disqualifications today, only for peanut lab ones. Anyone else?
    The 1 SB Peanut credits are limitless but the credits count towards your 5 SB Gold total, therefore to maximise you need to make the 5 Gold fails before tackling Peanut.

    Hope that make sense!

    Personally I've found that the 5SB gold survey DQ limit doesn't seem to be in effect recently :)

    Mine needs to be activated before use

    There is a SWAGO starting Monday and if it is the same as usual there will be a "redeem a giftcard" square so if you wait for that you can redeem the swagup and fill the square with the one redemption.

    I have had an Alcatel POP 4 for about 18 months to which I added a spare memory card to run the apps from. The swagbucks alone have been worth over £300 but I also run the mobilxpression app which so far has paid £120 and earns an ongoing £2 a week.

    So I am guessing the MSE bonus will not happen now? I am very disappointed.
  • This looks bad for MSE if Swagbucks doesn't honour the points.
    Surely someone from MSE could contact Swagbucks and find out what the delay is.
    We should all put tickets in at Swagbucks if it doesn't credit by Thurs/Fri next week.

    They have always paid in the past the same as team challenge swag-ups etc but payments are often late - which seems such a stupid thing to do as it turns the payments from something that should be a positive into a negative, if the dates are too challenging they should just set longer ones - far better to say you will pay by say 28th June and pay then rather than say you will pay by 20th June and "delay" to 28th June.

    (I say 28th June as MSE say the sale on gift cards ends 27th June)
