I had a misunderstanding as to how Ebates work, and I was sick with flu and stressed and I sent an email complaining - it was not my best email - not rude or calling names; just short and grumpy.
Ebates handled me with respect and in the end all was resolved as it was after all... my misunderstanding. Ebates is a great program and you do in fact earn cash back. Thank you.
I was trying to rectify a cash back query and the response I got from Ebates Customer Care was prompt, polite and most importantly, answered my query effectively. All my friends use Ebates and it definitely had made online shopping more exciting!
I initially contacted EBates customer service through email regarding orders I had placed which I thought qualified for cash back. EBates promptly responded and said they would look into the matter. They did and were able to update my account. I was very impressed with the timely response they gave me and for explaining in detail how certain items at a certain store were or were not eligible for cash back rewards. I feel very comfortable contacting them in the future if needed.
After I made a purchase at Macy's, the Ebates cash back credit wasn't showing on my account. I e-mailed the customer service team and they let me know that sometimes particular stores are slower than others to provide Ebates the sale so that they can give the cash back credit. Within a very short time and two messages from the Ebates customer service team, the credit showed up.
Not only is the program just AWESOME, so is the customer service! I highly recommend Ebates to everyone.
Thank you Ebates!
I remember getting started with ebates years ago, but for some reason forgot about it until just recently when I discovered it as a Chrome plug-in. I do most of my shopping online, so I probably could have gotten back a nice sum over all this time. I guess better late than never though. Since joining up right after the holidays, I have gotten almost $30. The only issue I have is the fact that if I click to activate ebates on a site, it redirects me to the home page. Then I have to search for the item page I was on again.
This is the best deal in the world! Why would anyone turn this down? Money back from your fave sites and you don't even ha e to file separate papers! Just unbelievably easy! I try. To shop only at stores that. Give me back money with ebates. And the other programs that have sprouted up? They are. Awful! You don't get cash back at all! With ebates you get money back! Not just some credit and junk like that! Cold hard cash! I don't shop at a store unless they. Also support ebates returns. G Josh I love this! And if you. Have a problem you can email them and they are so so cheerful!
I just love Ebates customer service! They are the best. Quick response with questions thoroughly answered. I wish more companies were like them. Ebates makes me feel I am appreciated.
I was missing credit for my purchase. It was easy to submit my request to ebates and they credited my account within an hour! Who could ask for more?
I asked that my name be updated and within 5 min it was!
I've never not gotten great service! Shout out to Rachel! Thank you!
Great customer service, super fast turnaround and the button on my search bar never lets me forget to turn on - how is everyone NOT doing this already?
Ordered 1 item and never received, no one answers the phone or calls back. AVOID. Never ever again.
I am probably a medium online shopper
When they have their tell a friend bonuses and I get an extra $100 it disappears right before my check goes out. I never get my referral money. I think I've made $12 in the last 2 years but with my unpaid bonuses it should have been over $200. Won't be using them anymore.
This is an excellent company. Not only do they pay you to shop they are by you in every way especially if you have questions, problems, etc. Their Customer Service Dept answers your questions right away. I'm very happy with my experience with Ebates & will recommend them to everyone I lnow. Thank you Ebates & a special thanks to Kathleen in Customer Service!
Love Ebates! Had a little confusion when I first started and they went above and beyond to help me. I will definitely keep using Ebates.
I had ordered some items from a site on e-bates e-mail and I didn't order it the way I should had... I contacted ebates customer service and told them what I had did. And they solved the problem within 30 minutes... they answered my e-mail right away and not only did they give me the money I had earned with my order... but also gave my friend 25.00 for asking me to sign up... I definately will be ordering more things off ebates... and earning money back
I made a first time purchase with this company and was very apprehensive since it was a fairly large purchase. I couldn't be more pleased. The item was delivered in less than a week, in good condition and no problems whatsoever. I would most certainly try them again in the future. Their price for the product was exceptional and shipping was free.
My question was answered so fast and issue resolved.
Recently I made a purchass and went through Ebates.com. After a couple of days it didn't show up in my Ebates account so I contacted their customer care. That very day I received a reply to my inquiry and, by the next day, the issue was resolved. My customer care rep was SO helpful and polite and thorough. I am SO pleased with my service. Thank you Ebates. Not only is the refund money nice, but in all ways you have the customer's best interest at heart.

Answer: Hi Mike, This is a great idea. I'll make sure that our leadership team is aware of this suggestion and I'll see what we can do to make it happen in the future. We know that Ebates is the best Cash Back shopping service, but we appreciate your confirmation of this fact.
Answer: I can't answer about the owner ripping people off. All I know is I have ordered from Rakuten numerous times and have nothing but praise for them. I haven't read the bad reviews but I've gotten nothing but good products.
Answer: I can't tell you I would buy again. I had no help from rakuten when needed. They said they are not responsible for the sellers since they work as an online shopping center. I would suggest you buying at Amazon. I never had problems with them. Regards
Answer: I dont know there some wierred how come I just order some jewelry.com and I order two earring only and its just 30.00 dollars. But when I use debates the price went up to high.
Answer: If it for some reason doesn't show like it should, I contact ebates. I include a copy of the email with the information from the order placed. Normally I wait until the purchase has arrived. This gives ebates and the store to put the transaction in your account.
