  • It took nearly 7 months for my cashback, but it arrived eventually.

    If you email the CEC you will get an automated reply almost instantly and they replied to me within a week or so.

    Martin Lewis sold this site a few years back and is basically not involved, perhaps as a figurehead only.

    Perhaps sending a written letter will get you a reply?
