Ebates' Rachel assisted me with a question and her action far exceeded my expectations. I was very impressed.
I have been using Ebates for 4 months now. It's for the most part a smooth process, but once in a while I don't get credit for something. I usually contact someone online and the issue gets resolved quickly. My last credit was denied because they said the company at which I shopped gave credit to someone other than Ebates, but they gave me a $20 thank you instead. It was thoughtful, but I was upset because my expected rebate was for much more, and I know I entered through Ebates and I did not exit my browser or use a promotional code. I called the company I shopped at and I verified those facts. So, I decided to call Ebates customer service at *******200 and Lindsey was amazing to work with. I explained my situation and being that she is a supervisor, she was able to credit my $70+ to my Ebates account immediately. While it does get frustrating from time to time to have to solve an issue, I do appreciate that no business is perfect and that they are willing to fix the issues. Thank you Ebates!
I love eBates! I've been using and recommending them for several months now and a few weeks ago, my cash back after purchasing from Dell. I contacted eBates and within the same day, they looked into it and my cash back was visible in my account. This is a great service with great customer service too!
My Ebates dollars did not show up in my account. One email to customer service received a reply within minutes it seemed. Then I had another question in regards to the percentage offered on that shopping trip and that email was also answered almost immediately. I am so impressed with not having to wait 24-48 hours for answers. I am in awe of this exceptional service!
Would never purchase from this site or Nilima home again... contacted co & after receiving email that they did not have item I wanted... they sent a different item. Charged me & would not listen to explanations regarding their actions... I even mailed a hard copy of photos & ex
Planation of item I wanted & what they sent... staff was quite rude & felt that they had satisfied an order they stated they could not fill... BUYER BE WARE!
I emailed an Ebates representative and she helped me with my referral issue efficiently & kindly. Thanks again!
This is not about just one experience - every single time I have dealt with Ebates CS Department, I have been nothing but please. As a retail store manager, I always appreciate and try to acknowledge outstanding customer service, and Ebates has been spot on in the 4 months I've used their site!
I have been a member for over 10 years now and have always been impressed with the breadth of e-tailer coverage on Ebates, add to that their world class service and you can't go wrong!
I was hospitalized right after New Year's and thought that my husband accidentally recycled my November "Big Fat Check" check, in his effort to survive the onslaught of medical bills.
After searching for the check, unsuccessfully, for weeks, I finally wrote to Ebates to explain the circumstances and to request a replacement check.
Within 2 hours of emailing Ebates, they had located records to demonstrate that the check had, in fact, been negotiated. They also provided me the date and check number for my records.
I had needlessly agonized over potentially losing a check when I should have immediately contacted Ebates to explain the circumstances.
Ebates was accessible, prompt, gracious, helpful and the Customer Care Representative treated me with the respect of a fellow human being.
I am both pleasantly surprised and very appreciative of the quality of the assistance I received from Ebates Customer Care. I will never again hesitate to ask for the assistance of Ebates Customer Care in the future.
I must of missed something when I first started my membership with Ebates so I didn't receive the 10 dollar new membership bonus they offer. I emailed customer service and a rep emailed me back within an hr and hooked me up with a 10 dollar gift card of my choice from a selector of stores I shop at frequently. I wish more businesses were as great at customer satisfaction as these guys are.
Kathleen went above and beyond my expectations to give me stellar customer service! Thanks, Kathleen!
Danielle!
She is the best at what she does. Also she got me my cash back with no hassle!
I had inquired about a check and not only was I responded to quickly and courteously, I was also reminded of some other checks I had not received. All around, a great experience and one of the many reasons I tell everybody about Ebates.
On any occasion that I've had questions or concerns about my ebates cash back or general questions about my account, I've found their customer service people to be wonderful. The email replies are always quick and I like that you can reply specifically to the person who sent you the information. Ebates is a great site and now with the ebates button, it is super-easy to deal with all the online purchaes you might make that would qualify.
This is the first time that I communicated with an Ebates representative and I am very pleased with the way the representative handled my question. She was extremely professional and her email expressed how she wanted to make sure I was satisfied with her answers. Also, the immediate response was refreshing.
Thank you
New to Ebates and I made a mistake with a transaction. Nicole - customer service was very helpful, and solved the issue immediately. Couldn't be happier.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
So my work computer (everyday laptop) had AdBlock installed by our IT department - thus blocking my ebates purchase. But the people at customer service were so helpful and gave me my money back even though I didn't have a registered shopping trip! So helpful and very quick to reply as well!
I had -mailed customer service a few weeks back telling them that I hadn't received my check though I had received an e-mail saying the check was in the mail. I received a response from Alexis in a very timely manner and she said she would check on it and get back to me. She asked me to wait a month and get back to her if I still have not received it. Since I never did receive the check, I sent another e-mail yesterday and got a response today telling me that they would void the first check and mail me another one on the 9th of May. Both times I contacted Alexis, I received a response quickly and she was very helpful to me in resolving this problem. I was very pleased with the service she provided.
My coworker recommended the site and I joined and ordered my online stuff the way I always do but now get $$ back! I had to email ebates a few times and always got prompt and clear feedback. I recommend for anyone who shops online!
I have only been using Ebates for a few months, but have found the service to be outstanding. Their customer service is prompt, polite, and detail-oriented, something which is sadly lacking in a great deal of modern customer service interactions. I never felt like my questions were intrusive or an annoyance, and I appreciate that tremendously. I will absolutely recommend the service to everyone.

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.
