    Hi, did anyone else who signed up with the MSE link find that they were registered as living in the USA? I'm new to this, and can't work out where I went wrong, or how to fix it, but I couldn't join using that link unless I gave a zip code, and there's no way to change country except sending them an email (which apparently can take 30 days for a response). In the meantime, I think I'm stuck with all the wrong offers, so any suggestions welcome.
    I had to email support as well, got a response within 24 hours so give it a go and you might be able to change rather quick.

    Does Sainsbury petrol works in general or do I need anything specific on it? Same with Lidl and Aldi?
    Only petrol on ours & it goes  through,yet Sainsbury's with various groceries on doesn't.
    Ok, so any Sainsbury petrol receipt works? How up to date do they have to be?

    Is anyone tempted to sign up for the swag code offers

    as far as I’m concerned Discover is the worst aspect of SBs

    also bitslabs need renaming to something starting with S, I won’t do their surveys

    It's 14 days - I routinely hang on to mine for that long, in case I need them just to reach the target!

    Great and where do I add them? In "Magic Receipts" I have to activate any of the products in order to upload something and can't find whereelse I would add them?

    You do them through the Swagbucks Answer app.It is the top of the page on my Android tablet as Everyday Receipts.I have used Boots receipts in the past as well.

    Just noticed "preferences" on the survey page where you can select how many SB are paid per minute - I've got 7 that pay less than 1SB/min so less than 60p/hour - worst is 0.27, actually 4SB for 15 mins so 16p/hour - needs to be around 20 per min for the equivalent of a reasonable £1 for 5 mins - none  of the 20 on offer to me are near even half that amount.

    Tbh when I spotted that I assumed you had seen it yourself before as you've mentioned the rates per minute in the past.

    There are some occasions I might think 'oh go on I only need 15sb to redeem' when I may take a poor payer, but as you say some of them are pitiful.
  • Not strictly Swagbucks (apologies) but I've just completed my first non Swagbucks UserZoom survey for 5$.

    May be a daft question but if I get paid does that just automatically translate into sterling?

    It's useful to have that, and I was glad when they introduced it - it saved me from doing the calculation for myself, as I had been doing all this time.
