Ebates.com - no February payment!
Anyone else here shop through Ebates to get cash back? I was supposed to get about $72 via Paypal on 2/15 but it never went through. I thought it might have been because the 15th was a Sunday and then Monday was President's Day but then another week went by without any payment.
I did a little internet research and found this on their blog:
Dear Ebates Member,
You may have noticed that your cash back payment from Ebates has not yet arrived - but please rest assured that your payment is in process.
Given the challenging retail climate, a large number of our retail partners have been slow to pay our commissions for purchases you made in November and December, and these commissions are what allow us to pay your cash back rebates. To ensure the largest possible payout, we have delayed processing your payment until the last possible moment. We will complete processing and send a payment this week that reflects all purchases for which we have received payment from the retailer.
Any payments not received by Ebates as of today and paid this week will be sent to you in a special payment as soon as we receive them. You will still see these orders as cash pending in your Ebates' account.
Our goal remains to pay members cash back as quickly as possible and we apologize for this inconvenience.
Kevin H. Johnson
President and CEO
