Ebates Priceline Kickback changes again ...

Ebates lowered the percentage kickback on Priceline bids from 3% to 2% in February, now they've switched to a flat $3.00 per transaction fee it looks like. This could be really good for folks who only tend to bid for one night ... bad for folks who bid longer and/or more expensive stays.

FatWallet is still showing 3% for their program, but I've never been able to get them to credit successful bids automatically so I steer clear of them now, not sure if others have had the same problem or not (any comments?).

UPDATE (July 25, 2006) - Ebates is back to giving 2%, FatWallet still gives 3% and I have not had any of the problems with them crediting my account automatically as I had originally discussed in this post above for at least the past month, so I can now recommend them without reservation.
