Shopback is such a scam. Dell was having a shopback promotion in sept, with double the rebate or something like that. The rebate comes to $40+ according to shopback confirmation email. By the time it can be encashed, guess what, $0! Not even normal rebate but ZERO.

I’ve written to shopback to check. Lets see what they’ll say.

Don’t trust shopback when they are having promotion!!!

:eek: $40+ is a lot to vanish into thin air!

it's true shopback cashback have to be monitored. But due to the number of transactions, i pay attention only to cashback above $1 :D


Btw those who bought vouchers via SB, do note some are expiring today eg HAOMART $5 vouchers and those food reward vouchers from playing game. Do redeem them before they are gone. My IUIGA $8 voucher expired b4 I remember to use it, sob sob.

their promos with high rebates could be click bait

I had a 20% rebate deal rejected for no apparent reason (other than the standard list)

bought a Changi Rec overseas SIM, $21 ... cash back supposed to be $4.2 ... after months, it became Rejected without notice

Shopback says 1% for apple products but excludes any new products like iPhone 12. What’s the point of having cash back.

If the "supplier" dont pay shopback, shopback cannot pay you. Worse is supplier close down before paying up!

Just take it as a bonus if happen to get it. Never take it as actual discount.

Customer has to take SB's word for it that supplier did not pay. Can trust 100% ?

Shopback roll money by holding your money for months and hoping you forgot to track the cash back lol. That’s how they survive. It’s their business model

U may try. I remember last time before directed to other app, shopback will display a a page telling how many percent of cashback u can get and the items must not from existing cart before u checkout. Some exception though for Qoo10 or Shopee.

Shopback keeps updating me that they did not get any response from Dell. So i try to verify if Dell is the one that withdrew the cashback, even the normal (1% isit?) cashback is not given. Shopback replied by giving me the full cashback amount... finally.

However...

When i login to check and (quickly) withdraw, i saw that a batch of my iherb cashback has turn to 0... what!!!!!!! These amount to $5.29...

shopback sometimes will give you the rebates, but most of the time will drag and don't give. Don't think it will last long
