    Same here, if they have removed this earning feature now we can safely rename from swagbucks to swagsucks. I hope it's only a bug and the searches will be back
    That happened when they changed from a fairly easy 4 wins a day, with not just up to 100 SB a time but many in the 10 to 30 range.

    I just tied a 50p short survey on Swagbucks. When it opened it was one of those Pollfish ones. After a few check you were paying attention questions I was asked if I was a VP of one of the following areas. I said no and kicked out 
    Is a Vice President of a company really going to do a 50p survey 😆..it’s just ridiculous nonsense

    When I see 'Pollfish' I automatically think this one will no doubt crash/DQ at the very end.......

    I have tried to get a search win today with no luck. Has anyone received one today?

    I used one of them as well and got 9sb, although it took about 20 searches
    Thanks to all those that post.

    I could be wrong but the £5 Paypal gift card seems to have disappeared. 

    Edit......found it. Phew. 
  • Did manage to get a search win this morning, but it took longer than normal (this after the recent increase in how long it takes to get one already). I won't be trying for any more today, it's not worth the RSI risk!

    I did read on the SB sub-reddit that many others were also reporting the same problems yesterday, so obviously it was a site-wide thing, they'd just turned off search wins for the day probably whilst testing/changing the rules about how many searches it takes, which has clearly changed again. Just another in the long list of skimming/removal of earnings that they've been doing over the past couple of years.

    This is partly the reason that I thought the £5 Paypal card had been scrubbed, couldn't find it at first. 
    Immediately thought SB had made everything a minimum of a tenner to redeem.
