Swagbucks 2022

Apart from the really low rewards one of the frequent survey things that really annoys me is that survey length, number and reward is stated but clicking through to it then wants info to find me a survey - no there is no need to find me a survey I've clicked on a link that should take me to the one I have selected

Swagbucks really need to address the time issue. Very few, in my experience, match the time suggested on main screen. And yes the finding you a survey thing 🙄..and the spammy survey companies like bitlabs, they need booting off.
moan over, I’m off to watch the Great Escape 👍🏻…again 😃

TheoremReach on RevU seems to be back to how it was before the draconian requests for logging in and requiring a telephone number to access their surveys. Haven't checked it in a while but I was desperate for a discovery offer to tick off on the to do list and clicked on it just by chance. I assume they saw their numbers go down drastically so rolled it back to how it was before.

Came back 3 or 4 days ago for me but there seem to be very few straightforward 1SBs for DQs compared to before they went.

On the other hand, I recently discovered that in two cases they will always award 1SB on appeal.  One is where a pop-up appears over the DQ page after an immediate DQ;  I complete it with Other, give my e-mail address (I guess you must be registered for this) and say something along the lines of "Entered survey, no questions asked, DQed, this pop-up appeared".  The other is where a survey does not let you in but does not return you to TR;  here I click on History at the bottom of the page, click on the relevant survey and tell them it failed to return me to TR.  (If you get too many of these without giving an explanation it whinges that you already have a survey open when you try the next one.)  In each of these cases an e-mail appears a little later awarding 1SB, and it is credited as a Discover.

Signed up to the deal mentioned in last email for the £20 offer when you earn £10. Signed up with a spare email to avoid getting spam to my main email. Earned the 1000 SB required and got the 2000 SB points added today. Tried to cash out with Paypal, didn't work. Changed all the details so email is now the one I use in Paypal, added name, address, etc.. Put all details down but can't receive verification emails. When I try cash out it keep telling me I need to verify my email but not getting any. Contacting support also not working resulting in an error message. 

Is this just a huge scam MSE promoted here and I wasted hours to get the £10 and won't be able to cash out the £30 I have in value now? Very frustrated.

Don't forget to submit your Swago before 8am tomorrow - if you've got as far as you are going to, you might as well submit it now in case you forget later.

Sorry to hear about your issues with cashing out, but no, thankfully Swagbucks isn't a scam. They're generally very reliable with paying, and verifying your request should be straightforward.

If you've checked spam folders and have definitely entered your email address correctly, does it make any difference if you add addresses to a whitelist? The emails come from no-reply at swagbucks dot com.

I can receive all other emails, e.g. changing my security question works, can receive text messages when linking my Paypal account. Nothing in Spam folder, tried 3 different browsers. Even if I log in to SB with Google directly, instead with email and password it doesn't accept it. Even tried to change the email again and just nothing happens.

When I try to claim a reward it shows the below page and when i click on resend verification email nothing happens and the banner disappears after a few seconds.



Unable to send a support request getting an error message so seems like there is no way to get verified or even in touch with them.

I don't know whether something hasn't updated yet at their end after you changed your email address, or maybe their system prompts staff approval when email address changes are immediately followed by a payout request, I'm not sure. 

Anyway, the last time I submitted a support ticket I heard back from them at: help at csswagbucks dot zendesk dot com, so you could maybe try that and see if your initial contact doesn't have to come via the website.
