So far I have completed numerous surveys, entered competitions etc etc and I never get credited the golden balls that are on offer. I have been rejected a couple of times from surveys as I don't meet the requirements but on most nothing seems to go amiss other than the allocation of the golden balls that I should have acquired. Am I missing a step? Do I need to submit a claims form or something?

I wouldn't be surprised if I have completely wasted my time.

I also note that sometimes you have to wait periods of time for them to come through. I have waited weeks for some of them to come through so I know that time is not an issue

You need to email the companies/web sites that haven't rewarded you. They are not related to striker manager and as such there's nothing SM can do for you. 15/08/2012 13:19

And what do I exactly ask them for? The golden balls with which SM is in charge of distributing?

Half these companies would call me crackers if I start asking them for Golden Balls.

As SM sets these deals up and awards how many GB are awarded for each task, as well as distributing them I fail to see how these companies are expected to make any distributions of the GB.

That isn't what happens, those companies offer their services to games like this that sell tokens and the like. SponsorPay and the like sets up the deals with the companies that want you to do their offer, they then set a dollar amount for each deal. Then they approach games (or games approach them) and they find out how much a golden ball or similar game token is worth, so then they set their offers accordingly. Then when you do a deal, they email SM that the user with your unique ID has completed a task. SM has very little to do with these deals.

As far as doing the deals, I've made a ton of GB off of them, and I've never paid a single actual cent for a GB and I've gotten a few thousand at this point. Here are a few tips.

1. Assume you're not going to get the GB's from one. I'm fully on board with you that these things suck, but some of them do pay, you've just got to find the ones that do.
2. Don't do ones that look like they'll take a long time. Releated to the the above, if you assume you're not going to get anything, you'll know that wasting 30 minutes is probably not worth your time, even if it is paying 300 GB.
3. Figure out what companies work for you. If you figure out which ones have worked for you, then you can keep repeating the ones from them. I know that Eversave almost always works, and lifescript usually does too. The deals that ask you to allow an application on facebook almost always work, and the ones that say register for X game usually do, and all you have to do is literally click the link and type for 3 seconds.

Those are some basic tips on how to get the most GB's out of them. They do kind of suck, but play with them and don't spend too much time on them and you'll be successful.

thanks for the advise. In my opinion SM must control the companies offering GB in order to avoid infectious websites. This morning, according to my antivirus, I was referred to a couple of dangerous sites. 24/08/2012 12:50

Best thing to do is sign up for gamefly through sm, you will have no problem and will get alot of sm gbs.
I wanted to do this but i already had a gamefly account, missed out on like 800 free gbs.. Lol

Only Other company id trust is netflix, other than that, dont be cheap buy a few and support the game once in awhile.

Which is the best option to choose when selecting a method in getting the GB?

I have:

Sponsorpay
Super Rewards
Matomy Money
Token Ads

I don't know which of these 4 is worth looking at as they all seem to be the exact same thing but with different formatting and different companies.

Does it even make a difference?
