    I was able to get 50 points about half an hour ago. The ad window looked a little different - maybe they have been working on a few minor changes?

    I just received all 50 points and yes, the ad window was different. I think I remember the window being blue before and tonight it was black. Of course it did suit the 'Breakfast after Dark' ad.

    So happy to be receiving free points again :lol: !

    "Yeah"! "Yeah"! It's Back! The only difference I noticed was sometimes the button said "Home" instead of "continue" at the end. Got my 50 simpoints though. For frosted flakes cereal. I even bought some the other day because of the ad.

    I'm still not seeing it- is it hidden somewhere, or is it still buggy?

    I know. I have not gotten anything for almost 1 week or so until it finally came out yesterday and also today after 2am. I think they hold until they get new advertisements?

    Be extremely careful with things like swagbucks. I was on 4loot for a long time with no problems. they had trending searches that you could click on and get info if you wanted while earning points. one day I saw one that interested me and clicked on it. boom- horrible virus. took better part of a day to clear out. The link was to a search on their home page, not an external link, and it was still bad. And I wasn't signing up for things. I'm sure you're aware that there are dangers, but sometimes even the most innocent looking thing can be terrible.

    I looked at swagbucks, but I think it would take an eternity to earn anything of value (for me anyway). And I'm still not seeing the free simpoints, even though I'm checking often.

    I'm still not seeing it. It's been at least a week. I hope it comes back! I keep checking and nothing. Also, checked my pop up blocker to make sure it wasn't on when I'm on the site. *Sigh* I miss the free points. :(

    I haven't seen them much lately. Maybe twice in the last week. I always look though. Come on free simpoints where are you?

    Are there limits to how much I can earn?
    Unfortunately there are daily limits* to how much can be earned, but after 24 hours you can return to earn even more bonus SimPoints.

    In the past 2 weeks or longer, I've had that window open virtually every minute that I'm online. I refresh it about every 5 minutes or so, I've logged out & logged in & no Bonus SimPoints showing up. (I was at 1392 & needed 1400 to get those chickens/Country Living set). Finally yesterday at around 11:20am Central time, the icon showed up & I was able to get my 50 points and get that set (but not before a bit of trouble spending those points)

    If this IS a bug (the icon not showing up every 24 hours for people) I wish they'd fix it. And according to the above quote, the icon is supposed to be available once every 24 hours. IF it is NOT a bug & this is how it's supposed to be, they ought to edit that 'stickied' post stating the change.

    If you don't check between midnight and 2 AM EST you likely will never see them. Due to it being Summer here in the US(and the rest of Northern Hemisphere of course) more people are staying up later than they were during the rest of the year due to not having shool/college anymore(at least most students here in the US don't) and the rest of us who just have jobs(like me) are also willing to stay up a little later during this time of year. So the simpoints are now being claimed faster than ever.

    I always see it either really late at night, or in the morning. I saw it today at around 8AMish and posted. EST, btw.

    Hardly ever saw it in the afternoon. :roll:
