Hey, I can deal with the changes so long as they're not screwing us over because we get dot ca rather dot com cards. Not that I like it, but its their right to make it harder to get prizes - just don't screw me over because I'm Canadian.

If they're adding those high denomination dot ca cards I can deal with it :)

I understand your frustration, but I always saw swagbucks as a search engine first, and the points to be a bonus. Obviously most of us go on it for the free stuff, but it's supposed to be the other way around...

If I am genuinely searching for something, I Google. The results are a lot more plentiful, and a lot more relevant. The only reason I use the Swagbucks search engine is for the Swagbucks, nothing more. I don't find their search engine to be that great.

On the Swagbucks site, the Amazon.ca gift cards say Regular Price 100,
Special Offer 45

I hope that doesn't mean they are planning to raise the price of the $5.00 cards in addition to imposing this new limit. They will lose a lot of members if they do this. :(

Never noticed that the regular price was 100 sb. I've been a member since the summer and it's always been 45.

If they are going to impose limits and offer some higher value cards the redemption rate should be the same as 45 sbs for a $5.00 card. This would still benefit them in that it would greatly reduce the number of orders they are having to fill while at the same time not penalizing anyone for being one among the most active members.

Yep, but they are not doing that with the higher denomination cards, there is a 31 % increase for the $50 card and 40% increase on the $25.

I know but I'm saying they shouldn't.

I am sending them an email also and like I said yesterday hopefully if they hear from enough of us they will put the change on hold at least. :(
