    Might be the wrong forum but it does apply to bargain alerts. As we all do here I’ve used my rewards add-on in Revolut to get a % back in cash. Tesco with 20% back etc.and stays with 10% cash back. last week I used the Eddie Rockets 20% cash back. Here’s the issue. I never get the cash back and have to get on to Revolut support ( :( ) and wait for ages to get the issue resolved. I was just wondering is it just me or is anyone else having issues with cash back in Revolut. I also noticed that the Ed Rocket deal is now not on the reward list !!!

    Was the Tesco one an old offer? I have never seen it since signing up

    Never seen Tesco. Any reward has been fulfilled within 24 hours generally for me.

    I had issues in the past with the Revolut awards and not getting paid.

    Revolut told me I had to speak to the retailer. I got in contact with them and they told me the offer had expired on a past date.. But Revolut were still advertising it.. And if you clicked into the Revolut T&C for the offer, it doesn't have any dates or valid period mentioned. Sneaky

    I got all my Tesco rewards paid out back when that was active. But recently I did the Eddie Rockets one (an really only stopped there because it popped up in Revolut) and didnt get any money back

    given my previous experiences with Revolut customer support, I didnt even try to get it sorted just for the €4 in cash back.

    if anybody has any luck in getting cust serv to refund them and can share how long ti took, i might give it a try

    I have none of these. Mine are all useless, noticed I didn’t have the Amazon one recently and was asking support and they said it was random what you get. So annoying as I’d use those ones !

    Have you checked your account under different currencies?

    I got a refund from amazon about a year ago, but it got credited in Sterling, so didnt spot it, until I checked the different currencies for my account.

    In relation to the 3% cashback, I didn’t have any of the shops either until I restarted my app.

    Here's how it's showing on my app when I log in. Only noticed it last night when you click on 3% cashback on shops it brings you to all the logos.

    I don't have it on mine, perhaps it's a phased roll out?

    Try going into your ‘Hub’ (the 4 dots at the bottom), scroll down to the lifestyle section and on the right should be ‘shops’. Click into that and the 3% offer should be in there.

    You are correct. It has also disappeared from my log on screen since posting above but the full list is still there under hub.

    T&C's below which mentions a cap but I'm not sure where you find out what the figure is.

    Shops Cashback is a percentage of the purchase price. We apply a cashback cap per calendar month (i.e. the maximum amount of Shops Cashback that you can receive within a specific period). We will state the rate and cap that apply to Shops Cashback within the Shops mini-app. The rate and cap may vary based on different factors like what Revolut plan you have.

    I agree, I only use my card on holidays and most of my cashback relates to restaurants, there are loads of them. I wonder does it mirror you’re spending habits?

    No amazon for me for sure. Been with revolut now years and use my card for everything, so wonder because i do a lot of shopping on amazon, have i been excluded (im sure they do research on these things).

    The tesco one was great, i never got it either tho.

    Mine has now appeared under Hub>Shops. very very comprehensive list of merchants... almost forces you to check every time you buy something online.

    Would've been great to have had this a few weeks ago given all the expenses at woodies, B&Q, amazon, etc.

    I may be wrong bu it looks like it works differently from the way the normal Rewards work where you activate the offer on the app and then whenever you pay with your card it registers the transaction. With these it looks like you have to click on the offer in the app, it opens a browser window (you need to accept cookies) and then it tracks that session.

    It works a bit like those link referral programs like FatWallet from a decade ago.


    I may be wrong, this is based on a v quick read of the T&Cs. If somebody has received the cashback in any other way pls share

    Yip have the same thoughts on how it operates and worth bearing in mind it is for online purchases only which is different from the Tesco and other rewards they have run previously. Where once the reward was activated in the app the instore purchase would generate the cashback.

    For those of you who have no acces to Hub / Shops -> update the app. Worked for me just now.

    Couldn't see the Shops before. Thanks for that clue on where to find it.

    Now is this just for online purchases? For example, I see 3% cashback at TK Maxx. I've just activated it in the Revolut app and that brought me to the TK Maxx, where I can look up store locations, etc. but does not seem to be an online shop as such.
