  • The survey opportunities at the moment are truly dreadful! Most of them are the pathetic Bitlab ones, and the few real surveys there are have rewards so low that they aren't worth bothering with.

    And I would just love to know how many CEOs of multinational corporations with decision making authority over banking providers spend their lunch breaks completing surveys! I mean, what's the point offering £1.50 for a 15 minute survey when your target consumer earns hundreds of thousands per year? They surely never get completed (or at least not by anybody who's telling the truth).

    For the first time ever, my survey income from E-Rewards this month is higher than Swagbucks.

    Sad times.
  • also also they appear on your page then waste your time as they don’t even give you a chance to answer.

    that survey wasn’t the right fit message - so why bother me with it in the first place 

    still incensed about my Discover not tracking and then receiving a lecturing email etc but not solving problem 
  • Certainly gone downhill in the short time I've been usimg them.

    Funny survey day again - One looking for respondents earning at bare minimum a quarter of a million a year(!) Another looking for people who regularly buy new shoes, but got booted out answering yes tp the question "Do you like to travel? yes/no" - So they're looking for people who buy lots of shoes but never use them because they don't leave the house? Also, they only want people who buy batteries from Tesco or Sainsbury's, DEFINATELY not Morrisons! (What did they ever do to battery manufacturers I wonder!)

    Drive you mad these surveys if you don't have a giggle at them!

    Edit -- HOLY SH@T!! I've seen everything now - Just did a survey that asks you to BUY an air fryer recipe book from Amazon for a tenner and then upload them proof of purchase for some nebulous refund in the future. WOW! This is the shadiest survey I've ever seen I've seen a lot of shadey stuff on SB over the years including !!!!!! links and virus links, but never anything this brazen, wow!  :#

    Does anyone else routinely take screenshots of surveys because even when completed they don’t necessarily pay out

    spent ages on one then even though complete DQd  apparently and spent 1 minute on it.

    system is unreliable at times

    Yes, I always do that, every single time - whether surveys from Answers or from Discover.  I open Notepad, as a very small window, in the bottom right-hand corner of my screen, enter the URL of the survey, the time it is supposed to take and the SB it is supposed to pay, and ensure that this window is included in every screenshot I take of the survey.  I start taking screenshots when I am approaching the end of the survey, either according to a status bar or when the questions change to demographic ones.  The 1 minute thing which appears for surveys in the Visited section happens when they have not returned any information to Swagbucks to say you have completed the survey, but of course the screenshot you submit with the ticket shows that you have got much farther than that!

    New Discovery offer wall called AppsPrize, seems like it's only for those who use a smartphone as all the offers are game apps.
  • Scrabble Go: Does anyone know how one gets to the next level? Is it dependent on points earned, time spent playing, number of moves.... wondering if I should just play as quickly as possible to level up or actually take time to try and score more points/win games.

    I sometimes take a screen shot but often don't. This does not stop me putting a ticket in if it happens and I do get compensated as a result even without the screenshot.
