Those using swagbucks ???

I did the Gobble deal a month ago through MP. Mine never went to pending. I contacted MP's several days ago. No response. Replied to my email to them and still nothing. Anyone who uses MP know how their support typically works? I feel like I typically hear something back from SB's pretty quickly even if they go on to ignore me later.

I had an issue with mypoints over a donation (was supposed to get 4000 mypoints after 32 days and I didn't). I did have to be pretty persistent but I did get it resolved. I think it's very similar to SB help. It's so confusing when you reply. Just be persistent.
 
Watch out on the Swago cashouts - the top row is actually worth more than the entire perimeter, which entirely defies logic.

Wow, I assumed they didn't do that pattern since I start at the top and only look down far enough to find the highest number without having to buy a GC. I saw the 35 sb for the top row and didn't really pay much attention after that - just checked the sb values to make sure they didn't sneak in a higher one out of order :) I've seen them do it before where getting the middle row gave you 150 but getting the plus sign gave you 100, or something silly like that.

I think they do it to see if people are paying attention, like the quality questions in the middle of surveys. Although that might be giving them too much credit.
 
I'm not loving SB right now....

Back on Black Friday, I made a large ($800+) purchase from QVC. I went through SB, did a little browsing, and then later, went back and filled my "cart" and completed the purchase. This generated 2 shopping trips which I could see in my activity ledger. Well, I waited and waited and waited and I never received a pending Shop and Earn credit. I filled out a ticket and submitted my receipts and shipping confirmations. They were running a special for 7% back so this was a substantial amount that I was missing. Again, I waited and waited and waited...nothing. I got no reply. I even sent them an update that I had returned a $600 item in the order so I should only receive 1400 SB instead of the 5600 that I was waiting for...no response. I sent a few "nudges" asking for any updates...nada. Today, I see an email from SwagBucks Compliance:scared:...

"Thank you for taking the time to write to Swagbucks about your concern. Unfortunately, we are unable to attribute your activity to our website. In order to have your activity track, please be sure to complete it through the link on our website. Also refrain from using any third party software that may block our systems ability to track your orders. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding."

I went back to my Activity ledger because I wanted to send them a screenshot and ask them how they cannot track my activity when they have a trip number (2 actually) and you can clearly see that I have 2 visits to QVC. Guess what?? THOSE VISITS ARE NOW GONE! The trips to the other stores (Cabela's and Best Buy) where I also made purchases that day are still there, but there is now no record of my visits to QVC. WTH?? They most definitely were there before because I had to select one of them when I sent in the ticket and I did not know which number to use.

I'm miffed right now. I have always had such good customer service from them and this is really disappointing. I am going to continue to use them, but this is a bit disappointing. It was bad enough that I had such a bad experience with QVC...this is just the final icing on the cake:cake:.
 
Well this is a low I haven't seen in a while, the To-Do List bonus was 1sb today :sad2:

I received 2sb total, 1 for the first part and 1 for the completion. Not much of an incentive there SB.

Mine's the same. But when I was looking through the activity I saw this -

02/05/19
Other: February 3 Complete To Do List Bonus
+6 SB

I've never seen anything like that before, granted I don't make a habit of looking through my activity except for coupon prints but this seems odd.
 
Question for those of you who have done the Dollar Shave Club. How long does it usually take til you get a shipping and tracking email? My order email has a ship date of yesterday and I haven't gotten any emails yet. I just want to be sure I did this right.

Edit: I finally got a shipping email and tracking.

Well it was a good SB day for me - 850 SB Jan bonus(my highest ever), I bought a $50 Lands End GC and got 550 SB for that, Swag IQ had a lot of science questions (yay) so got another 309 from that. I will be on vacation most of Feb so won't be doing much.

I noticed that too. Weird!
 
Anyone else still waiting for gobble to credit through sb? I'm at the 10 days on my ticket and still haven't gotten credit or heard anything. Feeling a little frustrated!

I'm still waiting but I did Gobble through My Points. Also, no response to the initial ticket or the bumping of the ticket I did. Really frustrated as well.
 
Feb is a good month to take a break from Swagbucks. Possible March too.

Recent changes (there are probably more I didn't list)
  • No more free games
  • Watch videos not auto-advancing and nCraves glitchy and low sb for more videos in a list.
  • To Do List got cheapened up.

I refuse to struggle and stress this month for pennies. I'll be back when they make the effort involved worth the earnings. I did this last year too.
 
Has anyone purchased a large amount of gift cards from MGC? I'm looking at buying Delta GCs for our flights to London in Sept (for our 1st DCL!), but would need about $1700. Do you think this would cause any red flags or would I need to do anything special to purchase?

I wouldn't buy a lot of small gc because I think DL limits the number you can use. I'd look into that first.
