    Ive never had to make a special effort with the team challenge. If you just use Swagbucks normally you should qualify effortlessly.

    Even now, during days of plague when there's slim pickings for Swagbucks , all you need is 10 disqualifications from Theorem Reach to qualify. ie 10x 20=200.
  • I read it very carefully,no mention of signing up to more lotto's,its a straightforward con,why would I spend £11.00 in 5 days to get a £10 back?????It then would not let me log in to cancel,took me 2 days to get info from them so i could cancel,I am just trying to warn others NOT to sign up to LottoLand or Lotto social on Swagbucks,or you will see money drain from your card.

    I'd be annoyed too. Most people don't try offers because of this risk of being scammed one way or another. 

    Did you use prepaid card? I do offers sometimes with prepaid card which is valid, but if anyone actually tries to take money, they'd get nothing because of lack of credit.

    Or was it a bank card?  Have you contacted your bank? I'd report it as fraud. Cancelling your account with the lotto scammers isn't enough imo.  I assume it wasn't a credit card as, since April 1st, credit cards are now banned from being used on gambling sites.websites.

    That’s a different message to your original post!

    If a site (including ones like netflix, amazon and many many others)  offers a very cheap or even a free trial you will almost certainly have signed up to something ongoing that you must cancel if you don't want to continue with it - they don't want potential customers to need to make any effort to continue the product/service when they can make people who are not interested do all the work (and of course it's far more profitable to do it that way). - I don't do any offers that need a card number in exchange for the chance to get few quid.

    Does anyone know how to get the apps to credit these days?  I click on the green banner and the countdown vids show once or twice.  I then get "Tell us your opinion" with a thumbs up or down, then back to the countdown.  Not sure what I'm supposed to do with it!!

    Just leave it running until it pays, takes longer then it used to these days.

    Do you know roughly how long it takes?  And how do you know when it pays?  Sorry to be a pain!

    I tend to check my Activity data from time to time, to see whether the app has credited.  If it has, I cancel it and move on to the next one.
    Much quicker than the mobile apps, however, are the ten-per-day nCrave repeats at this link.
