    Shopback only to be retracted

    Sounds very on point for shopback!

  • i expected this to be widespread, but it doesn't look like it is.

    • there's at least 100+

      Myself and a mate got it too

    • 751 participants now

      That doesn't include the non responders and people who cannot activate the $5 stuff up promo

      • and people like me who didn't even get the $5 stuff up email…

  • Yes. But didn’t show up in my account.

  • Congrats

  • Same here.

    Yeah I woke up to the notification that I won one which made me a little happier (after a somewhat shitty week), then finished work to the 'Sorry we made a mistake' which kinda plssed me off….

  • Yep had the same and was disappointed i couldn't find anything in the app about it, then got the next notification. Dammit!

    Edit: They just sent an email to offer $5 cashback on next purchase though, i'll take it!

    Sure hope someone got fired for that.

    They'll give you $2 bonus and all is forgiven. Since the cashback stuff became more popular. Its turned to shit. I no longer use them

  • +2

    I was offered the $5 cashback for the mistake, but when I tried to activate, it said not for you :( Shopback is a hot mess right now.

      I opened the link in the app, and it told me to open in the app

      • +1

        Yeah i had that issue, ended up opening it on my desktop and it finally showed up and activated.

    Is this why they denied my withdraw today? I did not even get the notification. Trying to stop all customers taking money?

    • +1

      also had a withdrawal rejected as well that never happened before. it is the same account that has been used for years.

  • +1

    Often when i go into the app, there's a pop up offer of some sort. However 9 times out of 10, clicking on the X at the corner to close it actually takes me to the offer rather than closing the pop up. Super annoying.

    • I hate that so much

  • +2

    lol… another day, another Shitback thread where they screwed the pooch… again

  • Got the sorry email, but the link just takes me to the Account tab in the app. No messages at all.

    • Try logging in on a desktop via the link in the email.

      • They just sent an updated email with a new link that works.

  • Along with their 2 Business day response email, more than 10 Business day and no response. Time to ditch the Shopback and don't get tempted by their upsized cashback which will end up getting track as base rate/

  • I get you're not eligible for this promotion…

  • Yep, got this message too. 790 people now participating in the $5 bonus cashback lol– an expensive mistake, someone at SB is in big trouble!

    • Not too expensive in the grand scheme of things.
