    Well, maybe I was being credulous in associating it with my cashout;  perhaps they are running a program to pay the bonuses to everyone who has earned one so, and may well run it again next week and so forth.  Weird!

    Well if it comes to that, I can't guarantee I've done 1300, it's a guesstimate having not mastered the new version of the activity log so mine's probably only there abouts and I will need to be patient.

    I just used the calendar of daily goals,each day from 16th December to today added together came up 1275 then there would be the daily bonus figures that are not shown as goals, so I  reached  the target around lunchtime.It appears in my activity log after completing the Watch videos, but before the Theorem Reach 1SB disqualifications.
  • ayeT Studios. Any body finding their surveys (presently worth double at 90) are not loading?

    MY 1300 MSE bonus has just appeared in my account.I hadn't done  any cash outs but think I had just reached the 1300  needed.
    Mine too. Hit it yesterday but when i looked it said it took a day. Been lucky with some juicy surveys helping me in the last week.
    EXACTLY THE SAME FOR ME - did`nt even have to use my Hideout redeem points to get there !
  • ​I have a question on Hideout TV, I have looked but couldn't see a thread for general queries for it, only the thread for Hideout Codes.  If there is a separate thread one can someone point me in the right direction and I will repost.

    I joined Hideout TV a couple of weeks ago and finally managed to work out how to get points and redeem them.  Today, although I am doing nothing different,  my points ​stay the same.  Is anyone able to advise me what I might be doing wrong?  Thanks

    Thanks to all those that post.

    As to the threads, the other's not really a codes thread that's just what it gets used for and Swagbucks isn't the only Hideout portal. Asking here is fine especially if it's Swagbucks related!
    Do you mean you had some points to redeem but they didn't get added to Swagbucks? There's a minimum redemption amount, something like 27 hideout points I think, could that be the issue?

    Sorry didn't explain it very well. I have managed to redeem points, also figured out about the daily reward points as well. 
    The issue I am having is I am watching the videos but my points total is not going up.  e.g. it has been stuck at 1317.9 since this morning. 
    I have been doing what I normally do and letting the videos run, going back to check on it now and again and interacting with the videos.  Are there any particular videos I should "watch" or any to avoid?
    I generally try and go for the shorter videos with food and animals as they seemed to get me points.
    Thanks to all those that post.

    Firstly, sounds like you've got the hang of it, but to be certain only videos with adverts give points,  those ads are marked and have countdown timers, however there are recurring problems where either points don't clock up immediately following the video or sometimes not at all. To me it's worth waiting a few ads to see whether the points get added slightly later, and if they aren't doing that I usually just close it for the day and try again next day. Other than that it's possible to contact support via the hideout website and I've seen messages to the fact that they've restored missing points to affected users, whether it's worth doing is up you to decide. My points have been clocking up fine and I use it most days but different browsers, isp's or whatever could be causing problems.

    Thank you for all the advice.  I will close it down for today and try again tomorrow.

    I would also like to thank all the other posters who have answered questions on this thread as well, I have learnt a lot and managed to get a lot more vouchers with your tips than I would have done without them.

    Have a happy and safe Christmas everyone.
    Thanks to all those that post.
