km - are you using AOL to do the special offer? I really think you need to use IE (Internet Explorer) or FF (Firefox) to do the special offers. From all I've read, IE is the best but I am usually using FF. I don't know how this SOs interact with AOL but their browser is a POS. :p

***EASY SPECIAL OFFER ALERT***

There are 2 offers from gWallet (homepage SO banner) each worth 8. One looks like a graduation cap and the other looks like a magnifying glass. They each take you to a 403 error page and credit immediately. Read about them on the SB FB wall. hehe.

Go get 'em before they fix it. ;D

Got 'em Aprille!  Plus a Bing and KIN video for 2 and 3 respectively,  And a 11 SB search this morning.  So that's 32 SB so far this morning plus the 4 SB for various things, 36 SB and it's only 10:30

The only one I could view was the Kin -- didn't even get the Bing one.  When I tried the graduation cap and the magnifying glass (a couple times each), I got this message: The website declined to show this webpage.  :mad:

But that's what I was saying. You get an error page but get credited anyway. I make no guarantees with AOL though. ;)

Did you click on "view account" on the SB homepage and see if you got credit?

I hope you used an alternate email address because ArcaMax (the sponsor) is a MAJOR spammer. It was one of the first SOs I did when I signed up and not only did I have to fight gWallet for the 7 SBs (it's now 9), I did it before setting up an alternate email account. :mad:

Of course, they're ALL spammers which is why you need to set up an email account to do any of the SOs. ;)

BTW, did you get the SBs for it?

I got the SBs for the Joke of the Day (I did it too) and I always use a alternate address for the SOs. For that matter, I use an alternate address for anything on the Internet, including KindleBoards. GMail is my friend... ;D I have many email addresses...

I think I did, I'll have to double check. I was at 299 before I started this morning and got both 8 points for those error ones :) and then 3 points for the video and then 6 or 8 for a search (I don't remember the exact amount) so I'll check for the 9.

I do have an alternate email just for swagbuck junk :)

I looks like I didn't get the 9 for the freejokes or the 9 for the ebates.  Shows I have 325 but no more when I look in my account and the 325 accounts for everything but those. :(

looks like I didn't get my home depot points too for the garden club which I actually want :).  I didn't realize that by clicking on the link about missing swag points in the special offers shows all that I viewed and or received :)

Thanks, Aprille, got those last seven.

Also wanted to let you know that I noticed the "Missing Swag Bucks?" link on the SO board, so I wrote them about that skin care survey just this morning, and they've already answered me and credited me! I figured that since I'd spent 10-20 minutes filling out that
damn
thing, I should get the bucks for it! ;D Now I already have enough SBs for my next GC, so I'm going to shoot for a second one! Yippee! ;D ;D

Since some others have been having problems getting credited too, I thought I would share the email they sent:

I've gone ahead and credited your account for this offer. Your credits should now be available within your account.

To minimize any future delays and ensure your credits are auto-credited, please ensure offer eligibility requirements and that your web browser is properly configured to track the completion of your offers:

Offer Eligibility Requirements:
Additional eligibility requirements vary by offer, but all offers typically include the following:
- limited to 1 completion per a household
- limited to new members or signups

Web Browser Requirements:
- JavaScript is enabled
- Images are enabled
- "Accept 3rd Party Cookies" is enabled.

If you continue to experience problems with completed offers not auto-crediting, you may also wish to do the following prior to initiating a new offer:

- Clear all browser cookies
- Disable any security software which may be overriding your browser settings (ie: blocking JavaScript, blocking images, and/or blocking 3rd party cookies)

Please note:

Excessive number of manually credited offers may be automatically flagged as potentially fraudulent activity and result in the disabling of offers from your account.

Should you have any further questions, please let us know.

Thank you,

Pradeep
