    SB paid so much more in the old days -  The were once significant almost completely passive earnings 
    I miss those days. Sadly I don't think they'll be back  :/

    I really like Prolific as it tends to be university research rather than product opinions and it's really reliable.  It's a bit of a pain to set up the account but once that's done it's great.  I also use Intellizoom that pays out $5 or $8 for each survey and they're fairly regular. You can get screened out but it's generally very early on so I don't mind. I also think they're quite interesting, they're the surveys that are userzoom on SB but pay a lot more when you do them directly.  I don't even attempt SB surveys anymore as it was too easy to spend 30 minutes just getting repeatedly screened out.  I definitely don't miss the frustration! 
    I'm ok with that too. It's the late screen outs and mysterious technical failures  :p on the last page that infuriate me. Thank you, I'll have a look at Intellizoom.

    It does help when the studies are interesting, I do sometimes finish one on Prolific and wonder what I've contributed  :D. There's certainly been unique research to participate in  :D

    Odd!  The first (and only) question I was asked was whether I had heard anything about Macmillan lately.
    I only got the one question as well. Like stepping back in time!

    Just had the second survey not credit in the space of an hour.....😩 Really annoying. They credited the first one manually but I wonder if they will do it for two....?

    I've had that happen, and both were manually credited.

    Fingers crossed then. I never know what to claim as I don't keep the links open so I always go for 80, being optimistic 😆

    Well, that's completely outrageous as I had to answer at least five questions on that survey, including one that said, "Automobile?" 😁

    You can see the original offer in the 'Visited' tab on your Activity page.

    It also shows how longer the survey was supposed to be and how long you actually spent, so useful when the survey provider has been less than honest  :D

    I don't much rate SB these days but the information is at least useful when raising a ticket. Good luck, I hope you get the credit you earned

    Recently joined Swagbucks due to £20 bonus offer on MSE. Spent hours doing surveys and bought stuff from their sponsored stores. Managed to get enough SBs to qualify for the MSE bonus. Then requested a gift card. A few days later I tried my login and it wouldn't accept my password. Contacted customer service and they said my account had been deactivated for breach of their T&Cs but when asked the refused to say what the breach was. I had been totally honest when doing the surveys, many of which you spend ages doing only to be kicked off as unsuitable or over subscribed, so can't see how I've breached anything. Looks to me like this is a way of avoiding payment and have read where this has happened to others too. They've had my time and data but they are refusing to reward my efforts. They don't even have the decency to inform you about the deactivation either , you have to discover this youself.

    Just found my account on the Your Surveys discover for 25SB (Adgate Media) has been blocked. Not sure why. I've pretty much given up with Adgate media surveys that come up at the top of the page as they always disqualify me, so no point in trying them. Anyone else had any problems with the Your Surveys blocking them? I know they sometimes come up in the main swagbucks surveys, so it can mean that I seem to have multiple scores, so not sure if this is the issue here.
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.
