If you are new to Swagbucks (a subsidiary company of Prodege), read this post. Otherwise, ignore it & may the luck always be with you.

Each year there are millions inexperienced new shoppers (young adults) into market and they are the potential prey of evil companies like Swagbucks and its parent company Prodege. This post will benefit THEM.

Swagbucks? This satanic scumbucks/scambucks still owes me $150. Untrustworthy!

Prodege is the parent company of Swagbucks.

I was given the above "NOTICE OF ARBITRATION PROVISIONS" by a Swagbucks' scumbag on the only BBB complaint I filed at that day in my life. Before that day, I never knew the existence of this satanic Prodege.

I provided all screenshots which were more than enough to PROVE I fulfilled all the requirements. No use at all.

Most people (including me previously) believe screenshots are hard guarantee of this kind of deals, which are based on trust because you get your reward AFTER you do your part (spend your time or/and money). But now I know a shameless immoral company like Swagbucks can easily break such bottom line without being punished. This is unjust. This is why I am here warning you.

By the way, BBB (Better Business Bureau) is a private company, NOT a government agency. BBB and its agents do not judge. BBB only gives you a channel to face the company, exchange a few posts, then you are done. If the company chooses to be a villain, BBB will do nothing. Your last resort should always be court/lawsuit.

If you go through all Swagbucks-related hot/warm deals on this forum, you will find in almost all those threads, some unlucky guys (like me) will moaned there. They (including me) did everything right but this evil company Swagbucks DID NOT keep its promise.

If you do hours of research on Swagbucks on this forum and Internet, like what I did, you do not need high IQ to reach the only logical conclusion that Swagbucks systematically (based on pure random or hidden algorithm) deny a small percentage of legit claims for more dirty/dishonest money. This is Swagbucks' hidden business model.

I repeat "Swagbucks systematically (based on pure random or hidden algorithm) deny a small percentage of legit claims for more dirty/dishonest money. This is Swagbucks' hidden business model."

You may ask: How can Swagbucks keep doing this without losing its market share in a long run? Because, do your own research, wikipedia, and a few google, you will find Swagbucks is already in a dominant position in this market by buying its competitors. And, as I said above, "Each year there are millions inexperienced new shoppers (young adults) into market", so Swagbucks always has enough prey so that it can keep doing this as long as it keeps the percentage to be "small".

Do NOT trust my word. Do your own research on Swagbucks on this forum and Internet. A few minutes now may save you hundreds hours later. I learned that the hardest way.

You've been warned.

Swagbucks is legit but it's gone downhill considerably. You can always take surveys. Survey Police is a website that monitors not only what rewards different survey companies offer, but which sites are the most trustworthy. If you connect Hilton Rewards to your Amazon account and take surveys for Hilton, you can turn points into cash off your Amazon purchases.

Reddit has a subreddit called Beer Money and it's a good place to see what's currently available. Start by looking at people's lists and read the newbie section. Sites like Swagbucks, have dried up and it's harder to get GC's these days. Bing Rewards is still around. Shopkick and Mobee might still be around.

If you're on disability, be very careful, because most tasks people do to earn extra money is considered working.
