Just be patient while taking surveys.
I have been taking surveys through swagbucks for 6 months now. Although it does require a lot of patience,I do enjoy completing the surveys. There have been multiple occurrences where I would complete a survey and not get paid for them. That’s the only negative. Complete waste of time but I would say that during my six month tenure I have had it happen to me about 6 -10 times. Other than that I really enjoy swagbucks and the swagbucks answer app.

Okay if you have a lot of time
The app is okay. Once you start building up rewards the number of surveys dwindles to almost nothing, making it extremely difficult to actually earn rewards. Most of the time with the larger surveys, there is always an error or “you don’t qualify” message when you are almost completely done and have wasted 20-30 minutes, and you don’t get your points. You also need to plan on an extra 50% of the time it stats the survey is.
If you shop a lot online, you can earn rewards A LOT quicker, but you really need to pay attention to what qualifies at each store.

Swagbucks Answer
It’s not the answer to all your questions but it runs fairly well. I find that surveys mostly work but occasionally there will be an issue or an error after I just about completed it. Resulting in no credit for my efforts. Then support will say oh we don’t own the survey instead of crediting me. Meanwhile swagbucks makes the bucks off of that survey. Overall though I give them a 4/5 because it mostly works. If support gave the credit I’d up this to a 5.

Like it...most of the time
I like this app most of the time, but I feel like I get asked the same qualification questions more than once and sometimes more than twice in a survey. I agree with other users that it’s really frustrating when you answer a lot of questions only to find out 10-20 minutes later that you didn’t even qualify. That doesn’t happen too often, but when it does, I feel like I have wasted too much time.

Good App but needs improvement!
It’s definitely the easiest way to take surveys on a mobile device but I frequently have issues with the app. It often freezes midway through a survey and my only option is the quit the app which also means I lose the survey and can’t reopen it at a later time. I often will complete a survey and it will submit but the submission screen freezes and won’t issue me credit. I also can’t file a request to swagbucks to have the credit issued because the app only shows you the length of the survey at the top of the app instead of the survey number and credit amount which is what you need to fill out a request. So it’s good when it works but aggravating when it doesn’t.

I Love Swagbucks!
People complain about everything, like if we live in a perfect world. Its free $ that takes little to no effort , so what you get DQ’d , when I’m close to cashing out I rather get dq anyways because some of them still paying you 5, 10, 40 just for been disqualified. If you want a fat check go to work !! Nd work you’re self 40+ hours but there’s nothing better then to fill out surveys Nd just let your computer run on a few videos to earn a couple of dollars . If you gonna be on you’re phone mines well make a few cents out of it rather then scrolling all day on Facebook Nd still not giving a dam of what ppl do on social media . Smh !

Not bad
The app is okay, not great. It's good in conjunction with the swagbucks website, but alone it could be better. I am an avid survey taker so I usually qualify for a survey per day, but there are days in which I try 20 times and don't qualify for anything. It is extremely frustrating to get to the end of a survey and be told that you complete it only to be disqualified and receive no points. I always open a support ticket when this happens and I am usually credited with the points after the fact. My main issue with the app itself is that it is very easy to accidentally exit a survey. There is no prompt asking if you are sure you’d like to exit. You could get tot the end of a survey and accidentally exit it. This happened to me once when my 1 year walked up and taped my phone.

Worst business practices ever! Stay away
I’ve been a member of Swagbucks for years. I’ve never seen such horrible business practices in my life. This company does nothing but rob you of your time and then throws it in your face that your now banned from taking surveys on both the app and the website and claims the reason is because your answers are inconsistent. Yet would you like to explain to me how not every survey is the same yet I’m getting banned for taking surveys due to inconsistency in my answers. Well duh because each survey is completely different. Not my problem you can’t get your company together. I’ve already reached out to the compliance team and boy was that a joke too! Get an automatic response that they will look into it within the next 30 days and along the lines it wasn’t their problem since the surveys come from a 3rd party company to begin with. That’s fine. If the matter isn’t resolved soon I will be deleting every app including this one that Swagbucks offers and use another service who cares about their customers and gives better customer service.

Highly Recommend!
A few years ago I read in a Seventeen magazine an article about making free cash, so I’m thinking okay this website must be legit so I’ll give it a try. I’m honestly so glad I did! If your an online shopper, or a shop online-pick up in store kind of person, this is the app for you! I shop online A LOT, and I get points for the money I spend. I shop especially around the holidays and amazing sales you can’t pass up.
Just don’t forget to log into swagbucks and shop through there portal, otherwise you won’t get those points.
I’ve just redeemed $35 in gift cards. Over time the points add up, I’m not saying I’m rewarded $100/week, I’m about $5/week! but like I said it all adds up. I’m not money hungry so I don’t mind waiting around until my next purchase, it’s just free money I can’t pass up. Why not get that extra money in my pocket?
Customer service isn’t great so don’t expect an answer. Just make sure you log into the portal so your shopping points show up on your “activity”. It’s great, I love it and tell my family about it all the time.

You get money, but you have to have time
I’m a college student without a job right now. I started swagbucks a few months ago and I have accumulated 8000 swagbucks. 1000 swagbucks gets you $10. So I have made $80 since the beginning of March. I don’t rely on this for money. At all. Because I would spend way too much time; however, if you’re bored and wanna make some swagbucks, it can be a fun little task. Sometimes the surveys are super long, but often it’s because they want you to watch an episode of a show and review it which is kinda fun. If you purchase something through swagbucks, you can make a lot but it will take about a month for those credits to come into your account.
