  Hello. Please know that many of the free credit offers and videos on WGT may take up to at least 1 business day (5-8 business days for some) for the credits to be applied to your account. If this time has passed without receiving the credits or you are experiencing an issue, please fill out a support request with the appropriate surveyor.

  Additionally you can play in tournaments and compete for credits. Some tournaments are free to compete in.

  Instead of trying to explain in this thread with a novel instead of a post...

  search for "getting credits, surveys, not getting credits, trialpay, peanut labs, got screwed again by XXXXX, etc.", and you will have 3-4 hours of reading with a lot of good advice...

  and most of the surveys pay immediately, some videos take 15 minutes...if you don't have it in 15 start the complaint process with the vendors customer service not here, wgt can't do a thing about it....

  Incorrect. WGT refuses to do a thing about it.

  1) Rumour has it that these "free" offers are untrustworthy to an extent that users might feel scammed by being payed late, with resistance or never.

  2) AFAIK, these "free" offers are neither quick nor easy money. It's rather fight and trouble. It may be faster and easier to do some honest work, anything above 2 $ per hour may be more profitable than "free" offers.

  I was looking at the posts on your wall and the thought occurred, did you finish the surveys or quit part of the way through?

  I contacted peanut labs and let then know that they now owe me over 500 credits for videos watch and not paid out. they looked into it and gave me 24 credits. the problem is i watched 10 offers each worth 24 credits and had a couple of surveys 120 credits and 2 others offering 114 credits, they sent a email saying it has been resolved and closed after giving me 24 credits. we need to get rid of these bandits that waste our time, if we take the time to complete an offer they need to pay up or get rid of them they will lose their advertising accounts and get someone reputable to take their place. They still offer the 24 credits for the Huffington Post ads @ 24 credits each but still do not pay out. They do not resolve the issue and close the complaint. Boycot peanut labs and see if they get the message.

  No idea, but I took two, both 15-20 minutes long, got to the end and it said "Sorry, this survey is expired".

  No more surveys, and if there is no other way to advance besides surveys and an incredible amount of money, then sorry.

  The only way I get free creds is the livegamer wheel, which is about 7 per day. Then just below the wheel where you can get more rewards for clicking the button. (as I understand that extra feature is not available to some countries)

  Then above that there are 'earn 2 creds' offers which say 'watch the vid in its entirety'.

  Those are the only ways I use and I have no issues, but I have to turn off ad block to get those creds from watching (I don't actually watch) those videos. It helps to have an old computer as a 2nd machine to click while you do your surfing on the main computer. IMO

  Or more simply, a 2nd screen - about £13 off e-bay here in U.K.
