Those using swagbucks ???

I can get a 4sb ncrave (such as the best friends one) to run without having to click through and when done, it automatically opens new ones and runs but the ones after the 4sb one are all 1sb. Reading posts, it sounds like there is a way to make one repeat itself over and over. Is there a way to get the 4sb one to repeat?

It seems to be luck of the draw. Not much you can do on your end.

My best friends ncrave has been running continuously for 2 days straight (and still going!). And it is crediting 4sb each round. I consider it "payback" for all the lost SBs I've lost on non crediting offers and survey DQ. :thumbsup2
 
Question....I used the SB shopping portal yesterday for Office Depot and I made a purchase. I don't see anything pending just that I visited the website. Will it show up when the item ships or should I have seen something sooner?

This has been happening to me a lot lately. Just happened with Petco. Wait 32 days and then submit a ticket with screen shots showing you visited the site and your email receipts for your purchase. I have never had an issue with them crediting it but you have to wait the 32 days

Usually it'll be when the item ships and they charge your card; whatever ends the transaction with the merchant. I've done a few store pickups from other shops and when I get the email telling me it's ready for pickup has been when I get the SB email that my purchase is pending. Likewise, most of the time it's around when I get the shipping notice. Occasionally it can just show up ~30 days later without it showing pending first at all, but that's rare. If 32 days have passed with no credit then you can open a support ticket for them to investigate. They ask you how many SB you're missing so make sure you screenshot or otherwise record what the % was at the time of purchase since that can change over time.
 
I have the one with dogs ("Best Friends") running and it keeps going for 4 sb.
Just another reason why this thread rocks and I need to make sure I'm checking regularly! My ncraves have actually been running pretty well, but it's been a slow earner because after a 4 sb it's all been 1 sb rounds until I'm able to refresh and go back to a 4 sb. Tried "Best Friends" today and it's been running great and repeatedly doing 4 sb. Thank you for sharing!!! Wish I had seen your post on Friday :)

:thanks: :disrocks:
 
Haven't gotten this message before from the nCraves. "We understand that you are in a rush, but discovering stuff is more fun when you take your time. Give it a try." Popped up in the middle of a round of the "Best Friends" one. At first I thought it might have been a problem because some discover offers from earlier were crediting to the account while the videos are playing. But I can't see how those are connected. I hit the 'next page' button to advance but it's stopping on each video now with that message, so I have to manually advance. Got 7 more to go, hopefully it stops when this batch is done.

I'm getting this error message a lot...last night and today...and on both mine and dh's computers also running 'Best Friends'. It's weird, sometimes I have to babysit the rest of that batch to get it through and then the next several run fine. Sometimes, it may have 7 to go and I only have to click through maybe 3-4 and the final ones run fine on their own. It just varies but definitely getting that message too. Can't complaint though cause I am at 400+ and he is at 350+ for the day :)

I've had that happen the last two evenings with Best Friends, too. When I catch it, I babysit until that round is done. Then I've closed it and restarted it. That has worked.

So far it's looking like a specific set of videos for me. If I get to a set from watch.swagbucks.com/ncrave/ something something, then I get put into a time out. The first time it happened I could immediately click the button and it'd open the next video. It cycled around again and that time I couldn't hit the button immediately, it'd just come back with the same message; had to leave it for another 15 seconds at least before I could advance. Knock on wood I haven't seen it for a couple rounds now but that was quite annoying having to do it for 7 videos each time. Good thing I was actually paying attention, I could have been rudely surprised otherwise :laughing:

ETA: spoke too soon, another one just popped up. fortunately only 3 more to go on this set. I think I'll try to restart it per @RedHotMama 's suggestion

I'll try restarting ours too. I'm always hesitant to stop them from running in fear they won't start back up. Especially after this "best friends" ncrave took a day after everyone else was running it for me to be able to get it going! However, last night both dh & I got hung up on one of these ones that wants to be babysat and we didn't earn overnight so might as well try the restarting. Of course, right now it's playing nice and running good :)
 
This might be silly but I haven't kept my computer up and running NCraves because I have this feeling that whatever I earn will not be enough to cover the increase in my electric bill from running my computer continuously. Has anyone ever noticed their usage increase after running a lot of NCraves each month?

Running a laptop 24/7 costs $30-$60 or so per year depending on your electricity rates. My swagbucks earnings more than offset that:)

Kinda worked. I saw those same videos come up after restarting and it went past without any issues for a couple sets so I thought all was well but then it started happening again. Just on those videos. I started a different set to end on (I had the 10sb Coffee Break one) and towards the end of that run those same videos cropped up and I got stuck with the warning and the time out again. If it was few and far between I could deal but it was coming up for me like every 3rd set and there were so many to manually click through. Might have to give it a rest and hope against hope I get some surveys to make goal :)

No, what you need to worry about is your internet usage. I've accidently give over my max a couple months. It's helpful if you have a way to see how much you've used so far. I just checked on my Xfinity app and I've used 631GB of my 1024GB allowed. We're not quite halfway through the month, so I'll have to slow this down at some point if I'm lucky enough to have Best Friends continue for me.

Glad I don't have a max with Verizon Fios.

Restarting didn't really help me either. The very next set I started needing me to click through. I did that for several sets thinking they would not run through the night but surprisingly, they did! Both mine and dh's and his were needing me to babysit them also. I had Kidpik credit today so goal is met :)
 
Best Friends has been running like a champ for days now. No way am I turning off my computer! I know it will have to end at some point, but I am soaking it up and meeting both daily goals by doing absolutely nothing. :D

Definitely do not turn off your computer! My aunt was getting the same error message I have been getting with the Best Friends ncrave, and she restarted her computer thinking that was the problem. Best Friends is gone and she cannot get it to come back.
