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.

I truly enjoy giving my opinion on items and services. The gift cards are a great incentive. I gave the last gift card I earned add a gift. It was a $25 regal gift card.

I do a lot of the surveys but really if you shop online this is a great tool. You get money back for doing what you were already going to do. Getting the gift cards sometimes takes longer than expected and you really have to read the fine print for cash back eligibilities with some companies (amazon in particular, which has a mountain of stipulations) but when I shop at Best Buy (which is my go-to) I get good deals with it.

If you have not yet checked swagbucks out be sure you do. You can easily get $30-$50 a month doing little work.

Some good some bad
April 8, 2019

While the actions on their website itself tend to work well, I have have a number of problems with their shop and earn system. They have blamed it on multiple tabs open at a time however the stores offer open separate tabs for information or comparisons so there is no way around that. They refuse to pay out the cash back which in one instance was over $200 for a new computer. Use at your own risk and DO NOT FACTOR THAT INTO THE PRICE LIKE I DID!

Love it!
April 8, 2019

I have never had a bad experience with Swagbucks! In the course of one month, I earn anywhere between 5000-9000 SB by doing the To-Do goal, the Daily/Total Goal, Swago (when available), and shopping at some of my favorite stores
For example, I'll redeem 5000 for $50 PayPal, shop at Vitamin Shoppe paying with that PayPal balance, and getting rewarded more SB for that purchase.

I love Swagbucks!

Easy

I like swagbucks and use it daily. I like having the option to cash it in for PayPal rather than a visa gift card where you can't withdraw cash from it.

Hi everyone, please anybody provide suggestion. Since 11 days I am facing issue in peanut lab survey portal. I have raised complaint against peanut lab survey portal to Swagbucks. After a long follow up, they informed me they cannot do anything please contact peanut labs. As they suggestion I contant peanut labs 5 days before till three is no response from them. In certain period I fed up. Even in gold survey I am getting 1 SB, that also only one survey per day for disqualification. It's always ask the general question like age, date of birth once completed this it says sorry you are not eligible. Customer service is not up to the mark.

I am very satisfied with Swagbucks. Like other reviews I have read, I have had a hiccup or two along the way, but customer service has always fixed it within 48 hours and sometimes less than 24. I have made a little over $200.00 using Swagbucks, and I like the paypal cash card option. My cash outs to my paypal account takes about 72 hours to complete - not bad!

Keep up the good work.

I have been using Swagbucks for years. You do surveys, watch videos, shop, etc., and you earn Swagbucks to use towards free gift cards. Many friends and family members use it, also.

Amazing Idea

Swagbucks is easily one of the best ways to get something 25 to 50% off, all you have to do is be patient and do surveys, yeah it can take awhile but it's totally worth it

I have been into answering surveys for almost 2mos now and finally I found the best one yet. I regularly answer surveys and am happy to have redeemed twice and shop online. The only survey site I have been using since I signed up for SB. I love Swagbucks!
