Rebate is a scam
May 5, 2021

Turns out, the rebate is $15 on your first shipping. Some rebate. Cost $13 to get. So, for $28, you get $15 of shipping. What a scam.

Hi Linda,

It looks like you signed up with us after a purchase you made on the Kohl's site. You were offered a 7-day free trial and $10 cash back on that purchase. Stated on the page you signed up on are the details of the 7-day free trial and the monthly membership fee thereafter. Directly above where credit card information, it states that if you do not cancel your subscription within the trial period, you will be subject to the $12.97 monthly cost of our program. These details are also explained in our terms of use, which must be agreed to before completing the sign up process, and in the terms within the welcome email each new user receives after signing up.

If you have any other questions about our service, please reach out to help@freeshipping.com and someone will assist you as soon as possible. Thanks!

Sincerely,
The FreeShipping.com Team

I don't think there is an option for no stars, but my experience has been awful. I ordered some gifts for a relative on Personal Creations website and was given the option for the freeshipping.com offer. I submitted the request for the shipping rebate and attached the shipping notice via email as instructed on the site. I received a confirmation email from freeshipping.com stating I'd get my rebate in 3-6 weeks. It is now 12 weeks later and I have still not received the rebate. I never received any follow up communication from the company about my rebate, so I don't know if there was an issue, but I did notice when I checked my account today that it shows no record of a rebate request. As others have stated, you end up being charged $12.97 per month. Also like others have stated, you can supposedly go through the freeshipping.com website to shop through companies offering free shipping. Unfortunately, none of the company's I've needed to order from in the past 3 months offered free shipping through their site. Of course, they say that you can simply submit your request for a rebate of the shipping you pay, but I wasn't about to count on having freeshipping.com pay me when I still haven't received my initial rebate from 3 months ago. Needless to say, I've basically paid this company almost $40 in monthly fees for nothing. Another thing I noticed was that the name of the company to which my credit card was charged changed from one statement to the next. I'm guessing this is to confuse people so they don't realize they are being charged a monthly fee for a useless service. I canceled my membership today but I'm still requesting my shipping rebate and a refund on the monthly charges. Do Not sign up for this service. I don't see how it benefits the average online shopper, but I'm guessing that is how the company makes its money.

Hi Chris, I am sorry you had such a negative experience with Freeshipping.com. If you email us at customerservice@freeshipping.com we can certainly help you resolve your issues., If you submitted a rebate prior to cancelling you are entitled to be paid for it. Hopefully we will hear from you soon.

All coupons are code not-required. Why did I spent $12.97 for nothing?! Because I did not know it's not free!

Hello Cindy, while there is a membership fee for FreeShipping.com, we believe that the savings can far outweigh the monthly membership fee. However, if you don't shop online often, than our membership certainly won't be beneficial for you. If you have any questions about how our membership works, please let me know and I'd be happy to explain it to you. Thanks!
