I have been with Swagbucks for years and it is one of my favorite sites but I have had trouble earning on it the last week or two. My search wins are lower bucks and sometimes, I do not get very many. I have had trouble qualifying for surveys and often can not make the goal.
I am also having trouble with the Encrave videos. I am talking about the ones where you watch 20 videos for 3 or 4 swagbucks. There is often one or two videos out of the 20 that you have to watch for three minutes or so before you can get credit for the video. other times, my computer crashes and I have to shut it down and re-start.
I know that a lot of mylotters are on swagbucks. How have you been doing the last week or two?
Do you like the new website and the videos which used to be swagbucks TV.

I think the website was revised a few months ago. The biggest change seems to be what used to be Swagbucks TV and maybe Ncrave.

I have he swagbucks app, and use it to watch videos, but I kep forgetting to do it, so I haven't been doing much lately. I will get back to it now, that I have seen this discussion. It is a reminder that I need to do it again. I dont have all that many swagbucks yet. Time to get to watching videos I guess.

I joined about a month ago so I don't have anything to compare it to with the old swagbucks TV but I did notice that the videos were acting kind of funny but I just moved on to the next group if it acted strange. I do like swagbucks and plan to stick around :)

t I have manged to make goal every day this month. They have been pretty stingy with the activities lately but today there were a lot of good encraves. A lot don't load or you get the 'oh no' message. Something always happens so you don't get credit for autocraves.
I think some days are just designed to break the streaks, a high goal and not much to do. I can't do surveys and I don't buy stuff for credit, so it is hard.
I still like it because I consistently earn on it and you have to learn to take the bad along with the good. I look at it as a job. There are things you don't like about any job.

The past number of days I have trouble qualifying for surveys, no matter what surveys I do. I actually ended up doing one survey until the very end (a good amount of time was spent on it) and when I was done I got a message that I didn't qualify for the survey. I did not get any SB for it. That was upsetting... Time wasted for nothing.

That has happened to me more than once and not just on Swagbucks but on other sites as well. Fortunately it does not happen very often. I would open a support ticket and tell them what happened. I bet they will give you some bucks because of the problem / disappointment.

Although I have been a member for a long time, I only got really active the last two or three months. At that time my goals were lower, and I often got three 15 point search wins daily. I agree that at the date of this post plus a few more days it was very slow earning there. They have rolled out another collectors series though and I got a 39 point search today. Good to see you here.
