    A pleasant surprise to see the Cahoot Sunny Day Saver Cashback being payable so soon. 
  • My Simple Saver is still showing as pending. Opened it on the 23rd October.

    For those who have already received the cashback, did you open your Cahoot account before the 23rd Oct?

    I opened mine on the 27th which is still pending. I could be wrong, but all those who have received cashback appear to be those going for the Sunny day saver not the simple saver.
    I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
    The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
    There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
    I listen all night for your step on the stair.

    Yeah I already have 2 SDS's so I didn't want to draw any attention to them by trying to open a third.

    I opened a Simple Saver on the 6th Nov and it is still pending. It is the mucked-up-tracking Sunny Day Saver that is now showing as payable.
  • Cahoot TCB
    I’d opened a Cahoot Sunny Day Saver on 23rd October and have had £25 cashback confirmed and requested withdrawal 
    I then opened a Cahoot Simple Saver on 24th October and have £25 showing as pending on TopCashback. 
  • I did a TSB bank switch back in June through TCB and had £20 showing as pending for ages and expected payment as September. This week, it is saying "declined by the retailer". 

    Is there anyway to challenge this or is this common?

    Of course you can challenge it - TCB has specific forms for raising a complaint about incorrect/declined cashback.

    Thats not to say that it will get you anywhere in the end - I've found that 'financial services' related cashback deals have been the most inconsistent over time. But I've also had enough errors in my favour that it tends to even out.
  • My SS is now showing as 'confirmed' on TC. How long does it normally take to become 'payable'?

    ISTR with the Sunny Day Saver it went from confirmed to payable really quick, maybe a day or 2 max. Happy to be corrected though if I've misremembered.
