    I currently receive contribution based ESA and PIP. Can anyone tell me if I'd have to declare having a SwagBucks account to DWP, as it may be seen as employment/permitted work?

    Thanks.

    Neither contribution based ESA or PIP are means tested benefits, so the answer would be 'no'.

    I've put a ticket in under general and then promotions, but i'm not holding my breath.

    e: that's interesting. Rather than the stock reply where they ask you to confirm the details listed below are correct, i got the same message as Scoobyju1.
