      My account was blocked for no reason, I emailed them and provided them with the screenshot proof they needed, but they wouldn't solve the problem for me. My request is very simple, since I have provided the corresponding screenshot proof, please unblock my account. Please do not use your wrong tracking information to judge, the information I provided is true and effective, and my requirements are also reasonable.

      I purchased a Laptop from ****** using Rebatesme's cashback service, which would give me a 3% return on the purchase subtotal, which would give me $114.87 of cashback. It's been 2 days and I can't see the cashback in my account, which indicates that it was missing. I quickly went to report this to Rebatesme but came across the information that ****** did not accept claims for missing cashback. Before making the purchase, I should have paid attention to this. So let me know what Rebatesme can do about this, or let me know if they can add half of that to find a solution. Thanks.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Two days ago I received an email informing me that the Inquiry is being processed, that is, this indicates that they only sent it to the Store the day before yesterday, and all the previous time was literally wasted, therefore, in order to close this complaint, I request that Rebatesme once and for all resolve this problem.

      This has not yet been resolved, I still cannot see my cashback allocated to the account, so I am waiting for a positive response from Rebatesme on this issue so that it can be resolved once and for all.

      I opened a rebatesme account with a legitimate referral link for a $40 sign-up Bonus on 2/29/2024. I verified my account and placed two orders on 3/1/2024 and 3/3/2024 to achieve the $10 minimum to qualify for the sign-up bonus. These orders were placed in ******************* and Converse, which earned me $9.92 and $1.16, respectively. On 3/21/2024, I received an email from rebatesme informing me that they had closed/suspended my account due to the following reasons: Fraud Orders, Violating the merchant terms, and detected unusual account activity. I didn't return these orders, nor did I do anything stated on the reason why rebatesme closed my accounts. I missed the email from rebatesme on 03/21/2024, but once I realized they had closed my account and wiped out essentially $51.08 ($40, $9.92, and $1.16) that I earned, I emailed rebatesme on 04/14/2024. However, I didn't receive a reply. I read many comments that this company tends to close member accounts when they are about to reach the payout stage.

      I placed an order on Temu and used the Rebates Me plug in to receive 18%/25% cash back. I have used Rakuten in the past, and would have used Rakuten if I had known how slow and unreliable RebatesMe is. I made the purchase on 01/03/24 as shown in the attached purchase receipts. The RebatesMe plugin was definitely turned on. I received the items over 2 weeks ago, so the purchase should certainly be confirmed by now. I contacted the Rebatesme customers service through email with case number ***** a few days ago but nothing happened since then. I don't know why I have to track down and beg the company for them to pay me what I am owed. The total purchase price is $73.28 +$6.96 (tax) with PO number PO-211-*****************

      This company does not provide contact information. I need to close my account, but there is no contact info on their website. If I cannot close my account, they will, and will continue to take $1.99 maintenance fees from me. How am *** close my account if they do not provide the proper information I need?

      I followed the the inhstruction that RebatesMe and I got the first attachment. So I clicked onto the "Contact Us" and got the 2nd attachment, which is the same website I had already seen when I filed the original complaint with the BBB. Instead of a solution, all they have done is give me the "old run-around." WHat the heck is their problem? Am I doomed to keep this account, pay the maintenance fees for the rest of my life? I suggest they contact me directly with a call.

      I placed an order on Contacts Direct and used the Rebates Me plug in to receive 15% cash back. I have used Rakuten in the past, and would have used Rakuten if I had known how slow and unreliable RebatesMe is. I made the purchase on 12/02 as shown in the attached purchase receipts. The RebatesMe plugin was definitely turned on. I received the contacts over 2 weeks ago, so the purchase should certainly be confirmed by now.

      Our customer service representative has conveyed that the resolution timeline for missing cashback inquiries is typically ***** days, and in certain cases, it may extend further based on the merchant's investigation. It's been 10 days since the inquiry was initiated, and we kindly request your patience as the merchant thoroughly reviews your order. You can expect to receive an email notification once the inquiry has been finalized, and your cashback will be adjusted accordingly.

      Complaint: 21045386

      I am rejecting this response because: I completed the purchase 20 days ago. I also provided a purchase confirmation email from the vendor. I am currently wearing a pair of contacts that I purchased. What else is required to confirm the purchase? This seems like a shady business practice by which RebatesMe attempts to lure in customers with higher stated reimbursement rates when they have no intention of actually paying the stated rate. And if the customer does not reach out and involve an authority in the matter, they would get away with it. Knowing that this is how RebatesMe operates, I cannot in good faith recommend the platform to anybody else and will not be using it again in the future.

      Sincerely,
