Our Verdict
A similar offer has run numerous times in the past, but it was always 2,000 Swagbucks; this one is $14 better. If you did a previous deal, you can’t do this one.
Swagbucks are worth at least one cent per point, and you’ll net $18 on this deal, plus 2 free months of service. It’s especially worthwhile for someone who is interested in the actual service offered.
Remember to set yourself a reminder to evaluate if you should cancel the subscription before the two months are over. To cancel, login to your Gamefly account and click on your name on the top right > account setting > cancel my membership.
Points are reportedly posting instantly with this deal. Just bear in mind that with other Swagbucks deals, some people have had problems either with the portal tracking or with Swagbucks deactivating their account for reasons which aren’t clear, so keep the risks in mind.
If you’re new to Swagbucks then please read our review. You can also get a bonus of up to $13 by using a referral link.
Swagbucks support is terrible, and completely unwilling to follow up on tracking issues. They send form responses that say that if they credit you based on the ticket then they wont get compensated, even when the ticket specifically asks them to follow up with the advertiser/affiliate-network about the offer not tracking.
If an offer does not track and its a non-trivial amount of SB, do not bother with their help center, and instead go directly to the advertiser. There is at least a chance the advertiser will fix things for you, because contrary to Swagbucks’ form responses it is actually possible for tracking issues to get sorted out by the publisher/advertiser/affiliate-network with manual transaction completion.
I submitted tickets twice with no luck, and then followed up with messages to them on Facebook. Finally got credited for it after two and a half months.
I argued with them in tickets for two weeks, then contacted GameFly and TrialPay and the credit showed up in a few days.
I read all the posts and nobody answered how long before you can cancel? Fine Print states “If you cancel your order, your SB may be revoked”. Does this just mean cancel your order or…? I’m sure you are able to cancel but does anybody have a time frame?
Answers would be greatly appreciated and Thank You!!!
Found the answer.
“Special Terms.
*SB will be revoked if order is invalidated or cancelled within 10 days. You must be a new GameFly customer. SB Awarded within 48 hours. This offer may only be redeemed ONE (1) time per user. This offer is presented to you by Swagbucks on behalf of a third-party merchant or sponsor (“Merchant”). Swagbucks does not endorse (and therefore is not responsible to you for) the Merchant’s views, policies, products or services. Have questions? Please contact the Swagbucks Help Center.”
BEWARE!
This “deal” was posted before with MyPoints portal which is a Swagbucks company. I had to fight for weeks with them to get credited my points. Then I go to redeem and they say “a few more days” and never received my Amazon gift cards. I’ll never do business again with any Swagbucks related entity.
Did it just now and posted immediately
Did it but Swagbucks did not post instantly. Never had a Gamefly account before. Is there a way to file a claim?
https://help.swagbucks.com/ (or look for the Customer Support link at the bottom of their website). They may or may not tell you to wait 30 days.
Thank you. I submitted a ticket.
Signed up today, but points did not post instantly. I had a Gamefly account like 13 years ago, so that is possibly the reason.
Pretty strange, I have GameFly tile coming up in the browser with 3400 offer but when I click it, it’s taking me through trialplay.com which comes up with “We can’t find this page”. Doing in the incognito Chrome session to avoid any interference.
Having the same issue
Same
Was able to do past money makers but on the Mobile app when I click on the deal it comes up with a “Sorry, this deal has been temporarily removed” or something. Now trying on a desktop, the deal offer (that says 3,400 SB) takes me to Gamefly with “Activate 1,500 SB”. Looks like I’m getting around 4 dollars instead with tax.. at least I know of a kid that could use this!
Edit: I clicked through the 1,500 and then it had me click on 3,400! yeahh! Don’t give up y’all, ha. Thank you Doc for another good deal/update.. glad I saw someone post to draw attention 🙂
and yes, posted immediately!
Thanks Doc! Instant SBs posted.
Simple! Instant 3400 SB credit for $10.79 credit card charge. I don’t think I ever visited the gamefly website much less been a previous subscriber. As described as of Friday morning.
+1. Looks like we might get to watch a movie or two out of the deal, which is kind of cool.
