    Offertoro's 1 clicks seem to be crediting a day late for yesterdays clicks, same thing happened on instagc.

    Step 1 - 4 SB

    Step 2 - 7 SB

    Note: Mine seemed to complete itself today, probably due to the delay in Discovers from yesterday crediting!

    Step 1 - 2 SB

    Step 2 - 5 SB

    Note: I was struggling with Discover as I got hit with an Adsend Media ban. I first got a message "banned for 24-hours you are using an Auto-skipper (I wasn't), then after 24 hours my ISP was banned. Seems to be back up today.

    I was manually skipping the ridiculously long Bridgestone diving ads at the Skip point. I got the message (!), there is only so much one needs to know about Bridgestone products - I even thought about buying a set of tyres:)
  • In-case of anyone not aware. Be careful of those stupid surveys with the screener questions about picking your 3 favourite destinations.

    I felt like going somewhere new today, and have not done one of these surveys for a couple of months. I was screened out and got an SB pop-up and was told I needed to provide consistent answers or risk being banned.

    I'd been wondering about those swagstakes entries we "win" entries for in the swago spins - how do you get notified if you'd won? In-house message/email, regular email, automatic credit? I suppose one has to verify somewhere or loose them?

    I've taken to just picking the top 3 on the list, they're always different, as it just says to make exactly 3 selections. Felt a right fool the first time I did one a didn't realise it was a regular screener so spent ages choosing the right ones.

    How strange - I'm sure I haven't chosen the same three each time and thought it was the precision of choosing "exactly 3" which was the test.

    Perhaps it's why I have got a permanent ban from Peanut Labs - if one has to never want to go to a new place in the world after you have ticked one off your bucket list.
  • Yes exactly, it's a bit of a strange one!

    I thought picking any 3 options would suffice too, although I seem to remember a discussion about this question on the SB reddit once, with at least some saying the options you pick need to be consistent, I think someone got banned from Gold surveys and they blamed it on this question.

    I was and am consistent with this particular survey providers other screening questions (e.g. I don't have a fibre storage optimizer in my household) and this was the only survey I've attempted today, I've also never had the warning before.

    I've attempted quite a few of these surveys in the past and this question is the only one were my answers will vary depending on what I feel like.

    Seeing the screen out and warning occured straight after this question and for the above reasons makes me pretty sure it was this question.

    If I do attempt one of these again I will write down what answers I give so I can be 'consistent'.

    Have a good weekend all :)

    They send an e-mail and you can check your entries in your account under "Swagstakes Entries" where they also post the winners usernames once the draws are over
