Ebates Big Fat Check Day - [Master Thread for all things ebates]
 

Well, today is February 15th, and I have yet to recieve any Paypal payment for my $100.00 in ebates currency. It was all earned during the Oct - Dec qualifying period, but no money yet.

Has anyone recieved their paypal payment?

Yes, mine had already posted. The time-stamp according to Paypal is:
Time: 20:03:36 CST

One of my purchases from 12/1/07 was missing and I had to follow up with ebates 3 times since 1/1/08. I finally got it manually credited on 2/12/08. I needed that missing credit to trigger the > $5 cashback, which already paid on 2/15/08.

Have you checked under your ebates account and make sure all your cashback from 4th quarter purchases were posted without problems? I advise you to contact their customer care to get things straight out since $100+ is no small money. You did shop a lot last Xmas to earn that much cashback, right? :D

I got my cash ^

I verified my Paypal address, my Ebates address, and they are the same.

All my transactions posted - my balance on Ebates shows as $100.00. All my purchases were prior to December 31st.

No payment yet - now at 10:38 PM CST

That's your current balance, right?

To be more specific, were your cashback posted and dated before the cutoff date, 12/31/07 (4th Quarter earnings)? If not, you probably would have to wait till the next payout in mid-May, even though your current balance is more than the requirement minimum.

If your cashback did all post in a timely manner during the 4th Quarter in 2007, technically, 2/15/08 isn't officially over yet. Maybe Paypal is a little bit behind schedule and still working on their last batch?

Wait till the day is over then contact ebates if your payment is still MIA. Good luck!

Yup, they all posted before the cutoff of December 31, well before then even. I guess I'll just wait and see, but thanks for all the input. If anyone else has recieved money today, please let me know what time. Thanks.

My Paypal acknowledgement email just arrived at Fri Feb 15 21:03:36 2008 (PST)

I guess there is hope then for me, thanks for letting me know!

OP, was this $100 balance from purchases, or from Tell-A-Friend referrals? According to their T&Cs, the Tell-A-Friend referral payments do not count towards the $5 minimum required for payout. However, as long as you had at least $5 in purchase CashBack, you should be receiving a payout...

Sometimes it does take them some time to process. Last time, I received mine a day or two late.

$20 was referrals, $80 was purchases. I'll be patient! I hope I get it soon, I was counting on it for this weekend...

My $60.31 posted yesterday. ^

I received mine. :)

I got my $8. :)

certain purchases, such as Dell, will take longer to clear ... I had that issue a while ago.

I received a Paypal payment a few days ago including tell-a-friend purchases (from a few months back).
