Swagbucks Reviews Summary

Swagbucks presents a mixed reputation among its users, with some customers appreciating the variety of ways to earn rewards, such as surveys and games. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding account deactivations, unresponsive customer service, and delayed payouts. Many users report frustration over not receiving compensation for completed surveys and feeling misled about earning potential. The overall sentiment leans towards dissatisfaction, with a notable number of users warning others against investing time in the platform due to perceived scams and inadequate support. This suggests a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service and reliability.

It's a good site to earn free gift cards but sometimes it's hard to earn points to reach the gift card amount.

It actually worked really easy especially considering that the guy who worked there had never heard of the e-Gift Card. After my Military/Veteran discount of 20% I had to fork out $15.61 for an oil change and I never got my hands greasy or dirt under my fingernails. My fiance is thrilled considering it was a surprise for her car.

I have been a member of Swagbucks for several years now and have enjoyed being able to make extra money to help my very limited income budget. They have problems like any other site and change in ways to earn money from time to time as well. Patience is required with tech issues as is to be expected with such a large site. Overall the customer service usually helps me with any problem I might have to my advantage. There are a wide variety of Gift Cards up for redemption and they are usually processed in a timely manner. There are always promotions going on to help you earn more faster as well! I recommend Swagbucks as one of the best ways to earn money at a good rate in survey sites!

This is not the place to make money but it's good for a little extra boost, especially if you get the gift cards that are on sale. (You can get a $25 value visa gift card every month for the equivalent of $22.) Between having videos playing in the background and doing different discover options like downloading new apps, it's relatively easy and quick to make about one or two dollars a day, which adds up overtime. Great customer service and online community.

I love this app
May 21, 2019

This is definitely one of my favorite servey apps, they have various different ways of earning SBs, and even if you don't qualify for surveys they still reward you with a couple SBs, so your not constantly wasting your time on ones you don't qualify for earning nothing. I have no complaints really, but just maybe one... You do have to wait for your gift cards awhile... I just ordered a gift card maybe 4 or 5 days ago and I'm still waiting on that email, but all in all it's worth it, one of the best.

I am new to using Swagbucks, several weeks now. Swagbucks doesn't seem to mind that I am extremely poor right now with no income and no job and no bank account. I've made some money already from hard work. Won't make you rich but it sure helps to tide you over.

Swagbucks has a learning curve and takes awhile to learn effective strategies of taking and completing surveys, viewing offers and discovery offers, daily tasks, etc. There are a mixed variety of surveys by various companies. Some are easy and some are very difficult and long, some of those also pay very well.

All in all, Swagbucks is a great place, with a Facebook page for viewing what's going on as well as the occasional code.

Scam website. All the offers are the same you can only complete offers once. The gold surveys are also scams they tell you are lying every move you make on them do not use swagbucks at all. The special offers do not credit. Not recommended Craig from compliance is not friendly. You can not earn a $100 a day on it there is no way you can earn that much on swagbucks. Total scam rip off don't recommend. Has anyone ever considered a class action lawsuit against Swagbucks? They do sell your data to companies!

Swagbucks is a very good app to pass the time while also earning a little something while you do nothing. It is tough at times to qualify for the higher paying surveys, but all in all it is a good site and app.
