I am tempted to try under my mother's name / for her SB account ... but something inside is telling me "don't do it" ......... :D

If it doesn't go smooth and there is a need to call Norton etc (for money back, to cancel the order etc) ... -- my mother would need to talk to them ... I can't just talk for her, as if I am her ... -- and my mother is not here.

you've called to cancel several times, right? what did you tell them? and did they say anything about the multiple cancellations and refunds?

Can't recall exactly ... just told them if the order "ain't instant" i don't want it .. and want to cancel ... (for my personal reason).

Half the time the order wasn't even going anywhere anyhow ... and I think got cancelled on it's own, even though I called them anyhow, complaining / bitching and insisting to cancel :)

Just did Shudder offer for 40 SB (via Acorn ... Peanut Labs, where I am banned currently, has it for 30 SB, someone else has it for 32 SB) ...

"7 days free trial" ... No SB awarded yet lol ... I probably won't even get it, with my luck ..... :D

Took a couple of screenshots ... and was going to Submit a Request to Swagucks about this ...

But their info says first to contact the Partners ... Acorn in this case.

Went to contact Acorn Support ... and in Support there it shows that I clicked on Shudder offer for 40 SB ... "Looking for Points" (and a button to click there).

But there is a note there also "Sometimes there is a delay for offers to be credited. Please allow at least 5 hours before requesting support."

So I guess I'll wait a bit.


Pain in the ass ... for $0.50 cents lol ... :)

Nice find. I'll leave this one for tomorrow's daily goal. I have too many SBs already today ;)

well that's weird - I just did the cancellation using the online chat, and then I noticed an email from Swagbucks thanking me for my purchase at Norton by Symantec of $4.51 (converted from $6.77 maybe, to U.S.?) and I have 45 SBs pending LOL

I had activated the Swagbutton when I signed up for the Norton offer - funny how THAT tracked, but the offer itself didn't...

^ ^ ... just submitted a request to Swagbucks about this.

As I could not even submit for support directly to Acorn ...

On their page for this offer there is a button "Looking for Points" ... and, unlike some other offers that I clicked on in the past, you can't even click on this thing (other older ones - you can).

When put your mouse on the button it tells you there (still says the same as mentioned before) "Sometimes there is a delay for offers to be credited. Please allow at least 5 hours before requesting support."

Well ... I am assuming that because of that I cannot click the button "Looking for Points" ... it's in some kinda "waiting" state now.

But it's been now over 6 hours since I fulfilled the offer lol ... - if 6 hours is not sufficient enough, do NOT tell me "...Please allow at least 5 hours before requesting support."

Has anyone noticed that you cannot submit receipts through the Swagbucks app any longer?

They locked my account from using the Answer app. I sent an email to their support and they won't answer my email.

when I canceled using the online chat the guy said I would receive 2 emails - one confirming the refund, and one confirming the subscription cancellation - I received the one confirming the refund, but not the subscription cancellation, so I just logged in and it shows the subscription as "active" with Jan 1/2020 as the next billing date. Have you logged in to make sure they cancelled your subscription(s)?

I'm going to wait a bit before cancelling it myself, since Norton hasn't canceled it, on the off chance that I do end up getting credited LOL
