30% increase is massive.

Looking (desperately) for +v's

1. It was 30% when I joined, so back to normal.
2. Waiting to earn my £100 Amazon voucher was a real drag at times, especially since Christmas. Now can cash in more often.
3. Instant redemption now with lower values, not waiting for days.
4. Hopefully won't have to do verification, pain as all sent to partner as she holds Prime account

Bit of a tangent,  joined Y-Live (mjm3346 recommendation) 01.02.24 after 53 weeks reached £50 cash out, finally received money into account today
Y-Live, quick review, £ per minute very good, not many surveys, screen out % high (taking £ per minute way down). Will I still use, yes, not least because I had a £2 carry over

Y Live is decent, as you say you get a lot of screen outs plus the monotonous qualifying questions, but for some reason these don't annoy me as much as other sites do.

Just gone past the £50 mark so I'll be getting my money this time next month, been doing it about 2 years and it will be my 8th payment.

Back to thread - Swagbucks is getting worse!

I too will be switching back to alternative gift cards. I'll keep an eye on the paypal cash out options on other sites, but it's always been ropey on swagbucks

I also never get any RevU stuff, so it gets quite tedious sometimes!!

So sneaky of them with the gift cards, so no point holding out for £100

I suspect this is because most people held out for the £100

does it ever go back again?

In the older days it used to alternate between full prices (albeit cheaper than now) and certain denominations being on sale - so you would be encouraged to save up for a £50 for a while, and then switch to a different value.  For a long time, then, pretty much everything was "on sale", at different exchange rates;  I often used to cash out for £10 which was pretty good value compared to the others.  Recently, however, the £100 one was better value than the lower denominations and worth saving up for, especially since one could get hold of the actual cash via Paypal;  for most of my earlier time with Swagbucks, Amazon vouchers were better value than any other option, although for a while it was digital-only prepaid credit cards (which I still used to top up my Amazon account, as they were hard to spend anywhere else).  It's a matter of keeping an eye on what is on offer, and doing the calculations to see how much bang you get for your buck.

Got what used to be £50 (saving for £100) now just covers £25 + £10.
Always done Amazon. 
Still got £325 banked.
Thinking just keeping racking it up in case things change or am I just living in dreamland?

Remember to submit your Swago (such as it is) before 7am tomorrow - not 8am, since Pacific time has gone to summertime and we haven't yet.

After a completed survey, does anyone else get a message that the "last one wasn't the right fit" and suggests another and yet, when you check the log, you have been awarded the correct SBs for a completed survey and not a DQ amount?  It's happened to me a few times recently.

Is Team Chat on the Swagbucks site working for anyone?

It's been down for me since last night, as has the Chat on the Daily Poll page which also uses Disqus

I am now getting "You must authenticate the user or provide author_name and author_email".
