    I signed up for this 7 days ago and have earned 782 SB so far which I could cash in for a £5 Amazon voucher. Have to say its been very time consuming and frustrating earning the SB's. This morning I spent 35 mins on a Gold survey about Volvo cars which was supposed to credit me 70 SB but although I got the thank you and completed screen the points didn't credit and when I looked up the help info I only then found out they wanted the survey code and screen shot to be able to look into it - so I won't be getting those then *sigh*.

    Hi, I never send a screen shot for the 70sb surveys. Tell them you completed the survey and got the congratulations page and can they help. For the survey code put N/A. You will get an automated response, reply to this with the same info and the points will be added later on today. Never had it fail with the 70sb surveys. HTH

    I'm not sure I will be able to or dedicated enough to continue to earn at this level I'm not willing to add the SB search to my Chrome nor have I added anything to my phone, its a lot of time to maybe manage £20 a month if I'm lucky and put in the time - especially now they have upped the amount of videos you have to watch and they also seem to have made it harder to get the 10 SB from the games - or at least it seemed that way today as I played for over 30 mins straight and only got 2 SB.

    I also had loads of entries for some sweepstake via the spin but have no idea what sweepstake when its drawn or how the results are announced. I've not ever been able to complete the "Discover" part of the daily to do list even after following some helpful tips on here.

    How much do people set as their monthly target and how often do you achieve it?

    The sweepstake winner has been announced - if you click on/hover the mouse over the number of swagbucks you have earned (top right) the dropdown menu that appears includes "swagestakes entries" click on that to check yours.

    At the moment £10 Amazon Vouchers are a better buy than the £5 ones.

    As already mentioned you need to make no effort beyond waiting long enough between plays to get the total 10 SBs (worth £25 a year) - the run game is simplest.

    I aim for the first daily goal which averages about 100 a day - so that's 3,000 for the month plus 300 (10 per day bonus) for getting the goal and another 300 for getting it every day of the month and all that pays about £25.

    I often go beyond first goal and for the 6 months June to November was averaging £73.00 a month, if I end up just short of second goal or having enough to redeem I will push on but my aim is always first goal.

    You don't need to add "search" (although you can earn from toolbar tv in the swagbutton as well) just using search from the main swagbucks page works - I averaged almost 180 SB a week from it but since they played around with it a couple of weeks ago not so much but the individual days always have varied a lot

    I've just done that too, a very easy Discover tick, I didn't fill out any other info.

    Wibble, also tell them in the description what the survey was about, you already said Volvo cars 7 maybe what else you were asked about.also if you check your history at the time you think it finished you can sometimes resurrect the completion/qualifed page to screen shot.
    A lot of the Toluna surveys are not redirecting back to Swagbucks after completion.

    Yes agree this site is not what it was a few years ago, the changes to watch are a step too far. Encrave does not work anymore and the rewards for searching also at a new low like 3sb. Surveys continually screening out and not paying out, going to look into other survey sites now,

    It hardly ever changes for the better. Especially with vids. When I started it was watch 10 for 3SBs.

    I remember - and the watchlists used to be great, I could listen to Radiohead or indymusic all day and get rewarded for (some of) it

    Thanks so much for that - I've submitted a ticket and was able to give them a bit more detail about the Model of the Car that they asked about etc. so hopefully they might just trace it for me :)
