TopCashback

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone had any issues with using TopCashback when booking BA Holidays and getting the cashback.

The holiday was end of August and I have chased the cashback but it's the usual 'we are waiting on the retailer'.

It has tracked but still pending.

I feel as if TopCashback don't take any accountability and fob us off with blaming the retailer.

What's the point if we don't get the payments on the majority of occasions?

I see I'm not the only one that has issues with Just Eat and Argos.

Why do they continue to advertise these companies if they're not towing the line and annoying their members?

Thank you

Treat others how you would like to be treated. 🤞

    Some take ages. I bought currency from John Lewis last June, and only got the cashback in January. It took a long while before pending became confirmed, and several more weeks before it was payable.

    Do the TCB reviews usugget that anyone has been successful?

    I haven't seen any reviews specifically to do with BA but I've seen a few negative reviews about Just Eat and Argos.

    I recall having a perfectly valid Argos purchase for £70 rejected. Very annoying.

    I've avoided car rentals before now as the reviews weren't good.

    I also had problems with BA Holidays, mine stated pending then confirmed. Its took many many months to get the cashback, but I did get it. I contacted customer service every 2 weeks.
