this is US only - UK still 7%. Maybe a mod can amend the title, will ask.

nothing stops people to sign up for TCB US as well. They have no limitation on residency as the UK site has.
The 21% seems to be worldwide bookings, and 4 days are for making the booking not for stays.
Hmm, I might rebook some of my stays...

ShopAtHome.com 110% Cash Back Guarantee
ShopAtHome.com which had been 20% and said it would be until November 30, 2012, is now gone down to 15%. Nevertheless, their Cash Back Guarantee is 110% of any better offer. http://www.shopathome.com/Top-Cash-Back-Guarantee.aspx That should bring it to 23.1%...

Cashback sites are a bit hit and miss and need close follow-up.
IME Ebates and Topcashback UK are rather OK, but 100% of ICHG stays must be retro claimed - it may have something to do with the way hotels "touch" RA reservations (upgrades, etc). TCB US - I have less experience, but Radisson stays posted after a while. Worst experience is with Quidco.

Haven't affected my IHG earnings with Ebates and Topcashback. I had six reservations earlier this year that didn't track with MrRebates, however. All the later IHG ones have tracked with them as well.

Recently there is a missing cash back from ebates but they seemed to be reluctant to pay. My EUR 289 Junior Suite in IC Ham - they only gave me cash back value of $132. So I wrote back and tell them that if they found a junior suite at any IC Hotel for that price, please let me know

I have had ZERO problems with MrRebates.com and have more than 3 dozen reservations I made through them this year. My cash back posts the same day that my points post on PriorityClub.com which most times is 5 days after my stay completion. MrRebates is the greatest (I've also used them for Marriott...no problem there either).

I have trouble with ebates for my IHG stays - first one they posted the wrong amount, they assumed that my room costs was $132 vs EUR 289 (a junior suite at IC). I wrote back and tell them that if they can find a junior suite at an IC hotel for $132 let me know
Also ebates doesn't start missing cash back investigation until after 40 days from your check-out date.
