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.

Site offers good cashback rates compared to other competitors and they have great deals and they keep updating them. Customer service is also very responsive.
not bad to use good redeemable points like the gift cards. recommended very easy to use as well thanks
Swagbucks is fun and simple to work with. I get very excited whenever I earn some Swagbucks. I do wish the payout would be a little higher. I. e. Since I am taking a survey for 20+ mins I feel like I should earn at least a dollar instead of just a few cents.
Hard to tell what you've done, and what earnings are pending. Also: cashout takes way too long. Now i'm just typing to get to 100 characters
Swagbucks has endless ways to earn SBs which can be redeemed for various types of gift cards. And not only that, it's fast and easy to qualify. Money has been tight lately and I've been able to feed my pets and buy other necessary products for myself. Thank you, Swagbucks for the opportunity to stay afloat right now in my life.
I have been using Swagbucks for over 2 years and even not doing the videos daily due to time, I have earned and it can be a fun and with no effort to earn SB points for some great gift cards to shop with.
A great way to earn money for what you do anyway on the web. I have been redeeming my SBs for Amazon gift cards and that has been working well for me.
The add-on to the Chrome browser is great! Saves me money every time I shop online! Definitely recommend.
This site is great for earning points and things, the only problem is the unavailable videos, crashing games, and the surveys that are near impossible to qualify for unless you're willing to give up your address
Today i tried politely to resolve this matter. No go. Kept getting a lot of messages from 2 users. After one of them said she made "thousands and thousand of dollar", i looked up her profile. Her pic is of a swagbucks sign and the whole acct is fake. She is acting like a user but is an employee. How low can a company go. This shows they are out to screw people over
I had the good idea to go to swagbucks facebook page and say what i said here. First 2 responses were to be made to look like other users. Told me to do this and that. In my post i had already told them what i had done. So mentioned they should read first... wasnt too long till a swag buck admin came on. Same song and dance. I was polite and gave him what info i had, but reminded him i couldnt get anymore because my acct had been deactivated... now i am suppose to write a ticket/complain about that. Another week and not a single email or message. Folks i would stay away from this place... a lot of users are happy, but a lot more and more users are not
I used their site to sign up for hulu and receive $32. A no brainer. Hulu for $8 per month and i get $32 from swagbucks... after 2 weeks i filed a "ticket". Great response for 7 days and then nothing. After the 3rd day my account was deactivated. They want info to clear claim but i cant get logged in to get info. I cant claim existing moneys earn from surveys. Bait and switch? Thieves?
This is the quickest way to earn gift cards! I've redeemed multiple gift cards already, and I used them.
Love this website, easy to use and super rewarding. So many different ways to redeem rewards from cash, gift cards to money off things you actually want/need. Would definitely recommend.
I just redeemed points for an Amazon gift card... no hassle at all, it was easy and quick. I will use them more to earn more points, to receive more rewards.
I stick mainly to their surveys and clicking the emails. I have cashed out a few times with this one. I like them.
It takes some time to get your rewards, but when you do it's worth it! I like the swagstakes. Keep up the good work guys
I get on Swagbucks everyday to get the extra cash I need to get through the month. Also love to redeem for Walmart gift cards.
I get Hulu and get paid for it! I'm nit qualified for most of the surveys so I usually get my SB points from playing games, watching videos, and subscribing / downloading to new apps! I actually love this site!
Swagbucks offers the chance to win prizes and I've been fortunate enough to win a few prizes. I prefer the gift cards but the savings on different products that you usually wouldn't receive elsewhere are nice too.
Answer: They are definately legit been a member for many years and have earned over 70,000 swagbucks been paid many times with no problems also use there swagbutton with no problems
Answer: It is real cash, since you can have the payment through PayPal or Visa cards. They're not going to just deposit into a bank account.
Answer: Each point is a penny. So if you want a $5 gift card you need 500 Swagbucks. My only recommendation is don't get the Visa cards. All other cards work easily online or in store. Visa never seems to be accepted anywhere.
Answer: No, it won't steal your personal data. It's perfectly safe.
Answer: Got to $28 rather quick but the next $2 i need to cash out IS TAKING FOREVER!
Answer: You need to earn swagbucks to get a gift card. As few as 300-500 swagbucks will get you a gift card (worth $3 - $5). Better gift cards are available for more swagbucks.
Answer: Either way. Some gift cards are physical cards and are mailed and some are online.
Answer: "... the page disappeared..."? If this is about getting a bonus for using the Search function, the page doesn't disappear; it sits there until you move off it. A couple times, I have moved off a page before realizing there was a Search bonus. I hit the Back button on my browser & input the code, no problem. Of course, if you don't respond in a timely manner, the bonus expires. (I think it's around 3 minutes, but I'm not certain.) Also, if you input a non-matching code, you'll get a new code, but only 2x (3 chances in total). Are you maybe talking about a SwagCode? That's a bonus that appears on an otherwise normal page. And again the page doesn't disappear. If you take too long, you get an expired notice in the SwagCode box, but the page remains.
Answer: Many giftcards are sent electronically. Some are within a few hours, others can take a few days. How well they pay depends on which activity you're referring to and also how much time and effort you devote to earning. Some activities are USELESS, like watching videos - you watch 15 30-second videos and are only paid 2SB, the equivalent of 2¢. For 7.5mins, that's asinine! However, some of the activities, like the surveys, in-store shopping/receipt upload and games (such as Swago) can offer a great bonus here and there.
Answer: You never get paid from there discovery items, huge scam
