I was willing to let that go, but the uPromise portal is frustratingly slow in crediting cash back in my experience over the last year. Seems like it takes them 2-3 months after the transaction and/or statement closing date to release cash to my account. That, combined with the fact that the uPromise portal doesn't really offer any special deals, is leading me to seldom use it, even though I now find myself in possession of a uPromise MC.
Again I don't think it has anything to do with them crediting the cash.
My Sears and Land's End and other store purchases have already payed out and funded on upromise. Its just that all of my staples purchases have not..
I think they need to pressure staples..
