Can't seem to qualify for surveys on Swagbucks these past few days

Swagbucks is offering bonus SB for surveys now.
It's a limited time thing.
That's awesome, except that any survey I try to do I can't qualify for.
I tried many of them yesterday and some today and same result.
Wonder why that is.
I will keep trying more surveys now.
Maybe I will get lucky.
At least I can do studies on Prolific without disqualification.
I like that site so far, even though my earnings total for studies doesn't seem to add up to the numbers I see in my account.

I actually just finished one and got 100 SB for it. That's pretty high. Usually surveys there pay less.

I gave up on those stupid swagbucks surveys, the majority are a waste of time. The only thing I do right now is Swag IQ.

Main way I earn there is through surveys. The next thing is shopping but these days I hardly buy anything online so that is of no help now.

I know what you mean about these incentives. It's a nice offer and it sounds great but getting it to work out in your behalf can be something totally different.
On another site, there was a nice incentive where you complete a micro task and you get double the payment listed.
There were no tasks available! I guess everyone jumped on board at once and there were no more jobs available.
I'm glad you're doing well on Prolific. Do you think there could be a delay in your points which is why they are not showing in your account?

The studies that were not approved I do not count when I add up what each study pays. I only add up the approved ones and that total should be the same as the cashout total in my Prolific account, not more and definitely not less. Excel doesn't make mistakes in adding.

I get too frustrated with other sites these days. Prolific never disappoints.

Except that one study that timed-out because i probably took too long to complete it all the other studies always went without issues and I was approved. I do have a study from June 9th that hasn't been approved yet but it says it will automatically get approved July 1st I think if the researcher doesn't approve it.
While it is frustrating that on Swagbucks I don't qualify for surveys enough times, and sometimes do some and get kicked out in the middle or end of them, I still earn there, so stick around. I've earned hundreds with them since joining. Not a lot compared to what some probably make but not bad.

@lovebuglena I remember when I started taking surveys in 2010. Used to make a couple thousand each year.

I have a little more than you there. 1348 for me so far. I've done many surveys there but it is frustrating when I wanna do surveys but can't qualify for any.

@lovebuglena I see. It is hard to file points but better than not gaining at all.
