Surveys and obtaining Free Credits

  I hope i have posted this in the correct section. 

  A member of my club from South Africa has said that over the last few weeks he has had no surveys available for him to do under the surveys tab (Peanuts lab).

  My question is are surveys only mainly available in certain countries? and what is the availability of surveys outside of the USA.

  It would be interesting to know if different countries have different survey opportunities and what these are.

  Can't speak with any certainty about other countries, but from previous posts on the subject the general consensus seems to be "Outside of the U.S.A. nothing"

  But it doesn't matter!  Simply use a VPN (which years ago Icon said was cool), choose a USA server, and you're in.

  Since I was told about this over 4 years ago I have spent zero cash, have the equipment and use the premium balls I want, every morning while munching me museli and checking e-mails I spend that time required to make this a free game.

  doesn't really matter if  you do the surveys  and get to the end  after 10 - 15 minutes  it says your not compatabile with the survey, why evan bother

  Yes happymt, this used to happen to me 99 times out of 100, and it was really frustrating for me spending so much time doing the survey only to be told I don't qualify.

  So I stopped doing them until a fellow club member shared that he gets surveys regularly. So I'd like to find out how and where?

  Thx

  ChaplainMC:

  So I'd like to find out how and where?

  Sorry didn't back to you yesterday, one of those days   :-(

  VPN stands for Virtual Private Network, and my knowledge of things computer-y tends to be on a par on my knowledge new cars full of sensors and such like - know how to operate them but haven't a flippin clue how the blasted thing works or how to repair them.  :-(

  But basically it enables the user to choose which country the internet 'sees' him in, thus although I live in dear old Blighty I'm 'in the USA' every morning earning credits.

  There are several to choose from, personally I use 'annoymox' which has a very user friendly format.  Most are free with a 'premium' option...the free option of annoymox works fine for me, albeit a bit slow some days.

  Just Google 'free VPN for (whichever browser you want)' and you're away.

  One last thing - I would strongly recommend using a separate browser for earning credits as remembering if it's on or off I find a right pain and trying to play WGT with it on....don't bother!!   lols

  Good luck

  Thomas

  how do you get the free 500 credits on your first purchase?  I keep clicking on the link, but it doesn't give me a promo code.
