It's the videos and surveys they've been skimming and reducing payments on. There's posts on here pretty regularly detailing how much they've sliced off and when, they keep lowering them gradually. But generally I agree with you, it's still worth doing for me, so I still do - when the effort to payout ratio dips lower than I'd like, I'll be off - that line is different for everyone though.

I'm personally happy to keep using Swagbucks, and would still recommend it, even if the amount you can earn has been cut.

Obviously it's not great for us, but from a business point of view I can see their point. I do a few different survey sites, and none of those actually give any points for doing nothing other than a click or two. Swagbucks is still the only survey site I can consistently earn something on every day, and it does all add up!

Swagbucks is not a survey site, they generally just host surveys (for a large slice of the payouts) for other sites along with all sorts of affiliate type things from cashback to showing advertising etc.


The basic peanutlabs surveys previously paid about 34% more than they do now (was 39 now only 29 SB) and the £1 for 5 mins the better sites pay (equivalent of 32 SB a minute) is often 10 times or more the payment offered by swagbucks - I would rather just complete a survey for £1 elsewhere than complete the same survey for 10p and have the chance to earn 5p through a few more clicks (obviously the way to go is complete the survey elsewhere for the £1 and use swagbucks for the "clicks").

Like multi-level-marketing there is an incentive for people to recommend the site and to keep the people who they have referred to continue to use the site.

Question if I may.
The watch videos seem my biggest income for least effort, but I only have a computer and IOS (I think Watch is an Android app only)


So on a PC, Chrome or Firefox seem to both get randomly stuck when I kick off what should be an hour or 2 worth of vids.


I am on Windows 7 having blocked Microsoft upgrades because as everyone knows Windows 10 is carp.


Thanks in advance

Watch occasionally runs itself right through without effort, usually it's necessary to nurse it as at the moment.
