Very.co.uk Cashback Fraud

noangel666

I found a good deal for a range cooker on Daily Deals UK

On the listing stated £50 cashback when you put this item on 12 months BNPL which made it the cheapest online at the time once you got the cashback.

Few weeks later I logged in to have a nose at when it would be paid and noticed the listing had been updated to include a code you MUST add at the time of purchase, I was certain it wasn't there, emailed C/S to be told return item and reorder or tough.

So anyway couldn't be bothered to argue.

Few weeks later I ordered a range cooker by Leisure - again there was a picture on the listing stating "claim cashback" except this time nothing on the listing to explain how.

So ordered item and intended to email C/S to find out how to claim it. Only when I logged back in to do so lo and behold the listing had been updated to include a code.

Now this time I took a screen shot of the listing to PROVE it had no details of having to add any sort of code at the time of placing the order, again emailed C/S to be told tough.

Now the cashback comes directly from the suppliers so very.co.uk get it regardless. I know this because I used topcashback and the price in there was minus £100 to my order total.

Seems to me a VERY convenient way to defraud the public by not adding the deal correctly for a few hours/days? Image how many people order in that time? How many thousands of pounds they unlawfully obtain that suppliers are passing on to them to give to the customers in good faith?

Here's Leisures current cashback offer: https://www.leisurecooker.co.uk/about/cashback

Take a look at the Leisure range on very....No details on any listing to show HOW to get your cashback (25/10/17 13.30pm)

This certainly doesn't sound like fraud.

It sounds like campaign execution errors.

Quite possibly you weren't shown a code to enter because you navigated via topcashback and their terms don't allow you to pick up two lots of cash back.

On two separate items

And again 10 days later on the same item the code disappears?

Very.co.uk offer various items with cashback - I purchased an Ipad which stated on the listing £50 cashback when you put this item on 12 months BNPL (which I did)

Yes seen this and am going to give it a try on the 5th

But have a funny feeling they will say I need to do it via very as they already paid it to them

I'm not understanding the Leisure issue. If you have purchased the item, you need to go read post 4, that explains how to get your cashback.

Why do you think that? The T&C of the cashback offer are VERY (no pun intended) clear.

Do you have a link to the Ipad offer

Nope, I loaded that last minute as I was about to purchase.

No that was a few months prior, it has finished now.
