I'm noticing all of you that reported success are in Europe. I tried all the combinations and got a successful message every saying I got the 1500 points. However, I'm getting nothing on my account.
Anybody with a previous account tried this from the US?

I tried 5 combinations and all ended up with a successful message at the end of each quiz, only 2 of those posted. I'm in Europe.

If I were to sign-up for a Eurobonus account here in Canada and earn these bonus points, is there any way to earn Eurobonus points from Canada on a regular basis (e.g. a survey site, bonus point offers, etc.) without flying on a *A carrier? Or would 1,500-4,500 points be enough to convert to something else on points.com?
Already have an account via UA and they're the only airline I can earn with since the UA/CO merger took full effect. Any other SK point sources, where you don't have to spend a cent? Can you trade these 1500-4500 points on points.com or something else?

I didn't clear cookies after each one...I did however use 2 different browsers (Firefox and IE) because I was doing them at the same time for my husband and myself
As many others, I can confirm that this works with existing accounts. I was, however, unable to claim more points than the first 1500.
My theory on this is, that since I'm merely a EuroBonus pawn (Basic member), I only exist in SAS' IT systems as EBBxxxxxxxxx, whereas a Silver member will exist as EBSxxxxxxxxx as well as EBBxxxxxxxxx (since every silver member was once a basic member), and so on for Gold, and probably EBPs too.
Thanks for the info though, 1.5k points always come in handy, even for us infrequent flyers.
EDIT: I tried doing the quiz again today, with SK, EBB, EBS, EBG and EBP variants. I was able to successfully claim 200 extra points for the first section of each quiz, as it seems like SAS' systems didn't save my answer for those sections.
Moreover, checking the SKxxxxxxxxx link, I was surprised to find that all my answers had reset, and that I could now claim another 1500 points. This does not however seem to be the case -- I did not even get the 200 extra points for the 'Welcome to EuroBonus' section that had reset for the other variants.
I guess the conclusion is, as always with SAS' IT systems, that there is no definite answer to when it does and doesn't work. Personally, I'm gonna give it another go a couple of days from now.

How come everyone including Mr. Nacho can ask such a stupid question like this? Of course I have cleared everything - I seriously mean everything, even to the extent that I restart my laptop because of that.
I even used Mr. Nacho work laptop to connect it from another country so that IP address won't play into the problem.
