I see that PeanutsLabs has disappeared from the Answer page.  It is still available via Discover, and although I haven't had one complete yet today, one where I was screened out still ticked off "Attempt a gold survey" in the ToDo list.  I always try to do Peanuts surveys direct from their own page, because there is no  limit to the 1SB payments for DQs, whereas if you do them from the Gold page you hit the 5SB limit.

I kept getting an error message yesterday when i tried them - either from gold or their own page. I do the same as you - exhaust my 5sb from gold before starting on the Peanutlabs!

Did a gold survey it was 8sb 24734445 but as usual didn’t get them I have also had quite a few that I finish no sb but I find that it has taken me to another survey yesterday I only got 21sb I just can’t be bothered with it I have been doing attapoll and have made £3.76 in 3 days doing the same surveys that you get on sb 

The better survey sites pay £1 for 5 mins (sometimes even more) that's the equivalent of about 30 SB a minute, so if a survey is offering 8 SB it should take less than 20 seconds if it was going to pay the same rate - The worst I have seen is a survey that paid me £3 where the same survey was available on swagbucks paying the equivalent of 21 pence (29 SB) - - really the rate on swagbucks should be even higher than other sites to make some allowance for the number of late screenouts, surveys that simply don't pay or those that go all round the houses before finally giving a DQ.

I look for short ones to complete the todo list but otherwise I try to complete only userzoom ones.

Discovery offer on OfferToro for 36SB just called "Registrations Open!" it's a web browser gaming site, sign up with just an email and it paid after a couple of minutes, haven't received any email confirmation as yet.

It appears to be back

I just clicked through to https://www.swagbucks.com/surveys and saw PeanutsLabs briefly in between Gold Surveys and Daily Poll, and then it flashed out of sight again.  This was in Chrome; I just tried in Firefox, and the same thing happened.  When I look at the code behind the page, I can see that the Peanuts Labs entry has CSS setting it to "hidden".  Odd.

Do you remember when there was a whole uproar about Facebook apps unknowingly collecting data from it's users during the Cambridge Analytica scandal? Now stricter laws have been put in place to prevent this type of exploitation of data from users.

I reckon one day in the future these whole 'surveys posing as screeners' will get the same treatment.

When I give up my data for collection in a survey, I do so because I expect full and honest compensation not only for my time, but also my personal data that I am handing over. To trick me into giving over data for free in a 'screener' is borderline fraud. Imagine if these companies are just using all the free private data they collected from screener surveys to conduct their research? It's immoral and surprised it's not illegal, but like Cambridge Analytica scandal, it takes some years for the law to catch up with technology.

I've just noticed that I didn't get the 50 SB for installing the browser extension, how do I contact them? I tried via Messenger, but that just says its outside the hours and takes me to the support page that has a 'Bot', I tried contact and that  gave me the option of live chat, but thats just a blank screen

But this morning it is back to normal.
