If you're having trouble connecting, please confirm your location services for Surkus are turned on. You might have turned on a strict background refresh feature on your device. This occurs when you opt to have all background location syncs done on your device instead of the application (Surkus). Location services are required in order to participate in Surkus Offers/ Surkus Local discoveries.
