          Rejected by which cashback company, Topcashback? Did you ask them why?

        • Wolfenstein98k on 23/08/2024 - 18:21

          How and why?

        • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 23:01

          Was it tracked or missing cashback? Which cashback company? Shopback?

    • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 12:34

      Few months ago I got the cashback from Cashrewards for 5 year plan which is Standard plan, not Max plan. Max plan didn't exist previously.

      Don't use Shopback for this PureVPN cashback as it didn't track mine previously. Maybe Shopback is not good for bigger transaction like this one, maybe only good for small transactions.

      I always use Chrome mobile browser in my android phone and never fail with any cashback transactions except this PureVPN through Shopback.

      I think I'll try this PureVPN cashback through TopCashback by choosing 5 year Standard plan, not Max plan.

      • wangasm on 23/08/2024 - 13:10

        I previously used Shopback for PureVPN and I got paid out fine, it was just slow. When you click through Topcashback there is only the option for the Standard plan for 5 years, no Max.

        • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 13:12

          Good for you that previously Shopback paid it. But maybe it has become worse because of change in staffing and maybe other issues too

          • wangasm on 23/08/2024 - 13:17

            @neoleo: This was purchased back in November last year. Fast forward to earlier this year the rep was responsive here and chasing up the slow confirmations (but I don't know if anything has changed)

        • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 13:17

          I just got confirmation email tracked from Cashrewards for Priceline 20% cashback today. Always good to use Chrome mobile browser in my android phone for cashback transactions.

          No purchase found from Shopback when I purchased this PureVPN, even after few days. Only this one has failed for cashback.

        • Harsh Deep on 23/08/2024 - 13:30

          i never got from Shopback, so end up cancelling on 28th day

        • WestAussie on 23/08/2024 - 15:48

          TopCashback hasn't tracked my MyDeal purchase for two weeks now, and their customer service just tells me to wait for 2-3 months. I'm so frustrated that I won't be using TopCashback anymore. I've heard other people have had similar problems with ToCashBack, especially for larger amounts.

          • wangasm on 23/08/2024 - 16:14

            @WestAussie: Opposite experience from me. This deal tracked after 45 mins. Everytime I have contacted them for missed tracking they have compensated me. I've had worse with the other 2 cashback sites.

          • dazza826 on 23/08/2024 - 17:29

            @WestAussie: Do you have the app installed by chance? Can't remember who posted it but had the same issue with shopback and it was the app (mydeal) that caused the issue.

    • noelhoi on 23/08/2024 - 12:54

      Free refund within 31d. Guess i’ll just wing the 5Yr Max and refund if not tracked

      • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 13:07

        Yeah free refund. So, do you think Max plan does not include upsold products? Maybe because add-ons are separate and considered upsold products.

        • wangasm on 23/08/2024 - 13:21

          I got cashback before for the Max plan (2 Years). The excluded upsold products should only be the ones listed as Add-ons

    • this is us on 23/08/2024 - 13:03

      In the past, probably two years ago, I got 4 or 5 years and cashback for the full amount.
      Pure VPN has improved significantly in terms of the app options and speeds.
      There have been concerns that they might have shared data from a costumer following FBI investigation or something (Google it). PureVPN has provided an official explanation that might be enough for some, and maybe not enough for others.

      • vash12 on 23/08/2024 - 15:14

        Tempting, I only use vpn when trying to buy gc from turgame or G2A. Don’t see the point of paying for vpn anymore.

        • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 16:19

          Just for the profit ;-)

    • Trumpman on 23/08/2024 - 23:53

      Signed up with nordvpn couple days ago and haven't tracked in my account yet, not sure if this works…..

      • neoleo on 24/08/2024 - 07:30

        Haven't got tracking confirmation from cashback company after few days? Better cancel it and get refund from NordVPN.

        Golden rule for me:
        TopCashback: same day tracking
        Cashrewards: same day tracking
        Shopback: 2-3 days or according to confirmation date. More than this, cancel and get refund.

        I always use Chrome mobile browser in my android phone for cashback transactions. I guess people who got failed trackings use Apple devices or desktop. Could be successful or failed in tracking in my opinion.

  • prisonmike on 23/08/2024 - 12:03

    are they basically giving money back to use their vpn service ?

        PureVPN is blocked by every streaming app
        It's also basically blocked from using Google searches, it makes you solve really long captchas every time

  • crackman on 23/08/2024 - 12:05

    Did this for cash rewards already unfortunately

    • sidozziee on 23/08/2024 - 12:12

      Buy a new new plan from a new account. I bought 2 separate plans from cashrewards and shopback. Got money from both.

      • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 12:23

        I got this from Cashrewards but Shopback didn't tracked it or maybe deliberately says no purchase found. I got refund from PureVPN. Maybe I'll try this with TopCashback.

        I always use Chrome mobile browser in my android phone for cashback transactions. Only Shopback failed for this big amount of money (5 year plan). No problem with previous smaller transactions in Shopback.

    Can I select 5 year plan and pay 199 USD and get the 130% cashback or there is catch for specific plan?

    • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 12:32

      Not sure about this Max plan.

      "exclude upsold products"

      Max Plan includes Password Manager, etc. but Standard plan is the basic plan without Password Manager etc. There are other separate add-ons but these are not eligible for cashback.

      If you actually click through the Topcashback link they remove the option for the Max plan for 5 years. Only the Standard plan is available for 5 years at US$129.95

      • noelhoi on 23/08/2024 - 13:47

        Do u rmbr if they charge u VAT/Sales Tax 10% like how they did with my Surfshark order?

          They didn't charge me VAT and Topcashback tracked at full price. They probably detect the country you are signing up from automatically.

    If a company is paying you to use their products, there must be a catch.

    I don't know if this is true or not. On one hand, they are helping to prevent crimes; on the other hand, they are keeping logs of their users and providing them to the FBI when asked.

      Did you try through a browser? I use Chrome mobile browser in my android phone for cashback transactions.

      For example in Chrome - Settings - Privacy and security - Clear browsing data - Advanced - All Time for Time range. Then only tick:
      ✓ Cookies and site data
      ✓Cached images and files
      ✓ Site settings

      Use new/different email and better use Paypal maybe. You can put many different emails in Paypal and set default email too. In PayPal I used new virtual card from Wise that can be deleted and get another new virtual card (max 3 virtual cards, delete, repeat).

      There are options to pay for the full 1 year, 2 years and 5 years. Check the fine print and order summary for the actual cost. It just shows the monthly cost to make it look cheaper.

          Only use PayPal, so you can remove automatic payment in PayPal. You can also claim the money back through PayPal if there's early renewal. I got my money back from PayPal after Uber charged 1 day early for UberOne free trial.

          Or use virtual card that can be disabled or removed like Wise virtual cards (max 3 virtual cards). I can delete these 3 virtual cards and get another 3 new virtual cards in my Wise account. Useful to avoid auto renew or something similar. Repeat ;-)

          • neoleo on 23/08/2024 - 16:16

            @will05: If you want to get the profit, only cancel after you get the cashback or cancel through Paypal automatic payment. Last time my purchase of this through Shopback didn't track or Shopback deliberately says no purchase found. So, I asked for refund from PureVPN through email.

            But my previous purchase of this VPN through Cashrewards was successfully tracked and already withdrawed the profit :) Only cancel through PayPal automatic payment.

            • will05 on 23/08/2024 - 16:40

              @neoleo: 1.When you try to purchase tcb site will say " your visit is recorded " thats your pre purchase confirmation.
              2.Wait for at least 91 days to get your cashback then send an email to cancel. In my case i did it after six months.
              3.Now last step to check in paypal, go payments - bills… if you see round or recurring sign against payer, it means your auto subscription is on.in this case " gzsystems ( purevpn) click on cancel subscription , and you off the hook.

Normally, at checkout in Paypal’s platform you’ll be able to choose if u want to get charged in original currency or AUD. If it gives u the option, ALWAYS choose original, since Paypal’s auto-conversion is shythouse.

            smirk got charged in USD I assume because Apple Pay does NOT auto convert?

            Currency conversion in credit card? You'll get credit card points, I guess.

            If you want the cashback profit (5 year plan for example), cancel it after you get the cashback in few months. Renewal in 5 years …

            @lars06: @lars06 In case you didn't already find this out, scroll to the bottom in Subscriptions and go through with the cancellation, at the end it said the following for me (the No and Yes lines are options you select):

            Are you sure you want to cancel
            No, I just want to stop my auto-recurring.
            Yes, I want to cancel my subscription
            Once cancelled, your subscription will expire on
            2026-01-03
            However, you'll still be able to use PureVPN till then.

            I clicked No and still have the subscription until the date above, with an option to "Resume Subscription".
