    Decent survey sites can pay £1 per five mins by going directly to them, at Swagbucks paypal rates that is the equivalent of 32 SB per minute.




    Thanks for your help. Do you know of any other sites that do pay more rewards than Swagbucks?

    There is an MSE list of some sites here

    Swagbucks generally pay far less than any site compared to going direct to the site

    And this is why I find the To Do list posts invaluable. Yet again, I have had to put a ticket in for a survey that hasn't credited. When they do credit me with the SB, they won't tick it off on my to do list, so I end up doing another one just to get the bonus. While it never is really worth my while for what they give us in a bonus, I certainly won't be busting a gut to complete my To Do list today.

    Swagbucks have decided to block my access to surveys. Says inconsistent responses??!! Not too sure why that has come up. Bit of a pain as those are good earner.
    Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.

    Said nobody about Swagbucks surveys, ever.

    I use many sites and SB are by far the most erratic and poorly paid. Erratic in the sense of - you can spend 10 minutes completing the survey, and then get disqualified - it just happens way more with SB then other sites.

    Well they have been ok for me.

    Probably explains why they blocked you, you were costing them too much!

    I think you can contest this if you contact them, I've read other people getting the same message and them letting you off as a first warning kind of thing if you get in touch with them. Worth a try.

    Something weird has just happened! A few weeks back I completed a Peanut Labs offer for Videostripe.

    Word of warning, I did the videostipe once and cancelled before the subscription started. Several months later I had a call from the fraud department of my credit card company, stating a company in Brazil were attempting to take money from my credit card. It turned out to be the same company as Videostipe, yet I hadn't used my credit card with them just a standard bank card. They tried again several months later with another new card but my bank has put a blanket ban on this company. Not sure how they do it as they were different cards.

    Keep an eye on your accounts now you've signed up, but I would suggest that others don't take this offer.
