@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Shop & Earn:
Before you buy ANYTHING online, check and see if you can get Swagbucks for your purchase. Click on the "SHOP" tab on the homepage, and you'll see Shop & Earn.
There are a few shops featured but you can expend the list by clicking 'View All shops', or just do a search for what you are looking for.
You pretty much get at least 2SB for every $1 spent, but it varies by store.
From what I've read it takes 32 days to receive your swagbucks so take a screen shot of your receipt and set a reminder to check you got your credits.

Trusted Survey: 200237
250 SwagBucks
55 minutes

Be warned, it WILL take 55 minutes. However, it's a very cool survey, as long as you have the time to spare, like watching reality competition shows, and don't mind sitting there watching an entire episode. It was testing out what I'm guessing is a new pilot for Food Network. You have to watch the whole episode and keep up with showing you you liked or didn't like certain scenes (so I'm guessing it would kick you out if you just sat there and let the episode play without engaging with the rating meter)

I really enjoyed it, just a heads up to anyone for what's actually involved in it.

hey...be careful with SBTV. My account got flagged for something. I just noticed that one of my rewards is "under review". It has not been a week yet but I will contact them once it goes past. I have not done anything outside of what I have been doing in the past. The only thing is SBTV since the beginning of this month. I am no longer doing SBTV until I find out what my flag is all about. How annoying!

I also notice since yesterday that my web SBTV is getting captcha on every single 3SB which I never got before except for once. My searches are also sent to captcha land also.
I've learned not to contact them, they will look into the account and find a reason to flag/ban you, even if you are using swagbucks and sbtv correctly (no auto reloading).

Just got my paypal that was ordered on 12/4 but not the target gc that was ordered on Nov 26. Anyone else have the target still showing as verified?

was yours "under review"? That is how mine is. It was initially verified. Not very happy about that. Was going to contact them today but guess I will wait till a week has gone by.

All of them say/said verified. Last time I ordered the target gc and it was cancelled since they ran out of stock (which I don't know how you do that if you just go to target and buy a gc), and now I wait very loong again. It will almost be the 14 days this week. I've never seen mine "under review".

Although I do the $5 Amazon GCs, and CVS GCs, I kind of wonder why anyone bothers with any other cards - unless there's a sale. I buy PayPal GCs and transfer REAL money that I can use ANYWHERE to my bank account. I notice that they aren't offering $5 PayPal GCs right now, but the large denominations cost the same number of SBs as the other cards. If Target GCs are causing problems, switch to real money!! Wink

I referred a friend to SB a long time ago and have not been credited until recently. I thought the referral's matching pts would be automatically credited to my account but it wasn't until I discovered recently and alerted SB. Swagbucks would only credit my account a portion and refused to credit the whole amount. I would appreciate any thoughts on this as I don't know where to pose this question.

I usually get paypal but now they are only at the $25, with target I just redeem them for cash since I'm in CA. I just thought it would be quicker with a $5 target gc, but I guess I was wrong.

I've had GCs listed as "under review" twice now. Each time I contacted, I was told my account was being reviewed and to not use bots for SBTV (which I do not do, and I maybe watch enough to get 6-9 SBs a day, at most).

On the plus side, as soon as they responded to me, they lifted the "under review" and issued the GCs right then.

I got to the last question of a survey, hit the finish button and received an error. I did a screenshot of the previous page and error and emailed swagbucks support. This was the reply:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I do apologize for the error you received while taking a survey. If you do experience any errors while taking surveys or where not properly redirected back Swagbucks.com upon completion, your answers will not be calculated in the survey results as a successful completion and a credit will not be issued.

Please know Swagbucks.com does not host any of the surveys on our servers. We apologize we have no control over any errors experienced on the survey company's servers. We again do apologize for any trouble you experience.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this the standard practice for them? No swag bucks?

thank you for your response...I will try to contact them tomorrow I guess...it scared the beegees out of me when I looked at the status and it said to contact compliance @swagbucks....uggghh

I knew it must be the stupid SBTV....just got it at the beginning of the month on iOS....it takes hours to get 50SB and they think a bot is used for hours??? huh...shouldn't a bot finish very quickly?....no more SBTV for me...don't need those chump points for the headache....
