    Just purchased something on amazon there, paid in GPB, did it take you a couple of days to get the cashback?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,895 ✭✭✭Cape Clear


    Purchased last night in GPB and the cash back was there this morning not instant but it probably takes a few hours.

    Make sure you check your Sterling balance on revolut. That got me. If you pay in Sterling you get the refund in Sterling.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,039 ✭✭✭BArra


    generally you get a revolut notification if a refund comes through also on your phone

    Bought something at lunchtime today and the Cashback was in my sterling account 21 minutes later



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,685 ✭✭✭Officer Giggles


    Worked in Argos today in person using the physical card. Cashback in the account immediately.

    I bought some new tyres from tyreleader yesterday and got the cashback immediately. 3% is nice to get on expensive items like these and will go a bit towards the fitting cost.

    I normally use disposable cards for most non-recurring online payments so my top tip is to 'copy' the card number into the phone (there's a copy button beside it on the virtual disposable card) and remember the other details before you go into the cashback section and this should hopefully save you having to go back and forth between Revolut and the website on your phone about a million times like I did the first time I used the cashback. 👍️

    FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

    You don't have to take a 'smart' meter if you don't want one, opt-out is available.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles or cartons to avoid the DRS fee.

    cashback worked in store in JD sports today.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31 adventures


    If I shop in M&S or Dunnes in Dublin 2, both are underground with no wifi, I've just activated the 3% off outside the shop each time - I know you have to activate it every time but is there a time limit like under 1 hour?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,636 ✭✭✭jaffa20


    It doesn't work in Dunnes with physical card unfortunately. Not sure about time limit.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,849 ✭✭✭cython


    This seems to be inconsistent. I got cashback on groceries in Dunnes over the weekend, but plenty on thread have reported as you said that it doesn't work. I only tried it after someone told me it had worked for them.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,636 ✭✭✭jaffa20


    Interesting, wish I had tried it again at the weekend now when I did a shop. Will try it again this weekend.

    You might let us know which specific stores it worked in as it seems to be dependent on how the tills are set up on a store-by-store basis.



  • Moderators, Regional South Moderators Posts: 6,094 Mod ✭✭✭✭Quackster


    It seems to be on a calender-day basis so, once you activate the offer on a given day, as long as you complete the transaction before midnight you should get the cashback.

    Now the only question is if you're making multiple transactions on a single day, does the one activation cover them all..?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,849 ✭✭✭cython


    It worked in Blanchardstown for me that time, and in the drapery of the same store this evening, so seems reliable in that one at least.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,572 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Just worked for me in Dunnes in Letterkenny using self checkout and tapping the physical card.

    I know some here said something about some Dunnes have the store name. Just showing as "Dunnes Stores" on my app.

    Cheers everyone, worked this evening for me in Horan Centre, Tralee. Didn't work for me previously in NCR, Tralee but will try again there in the coming days to confirm.

    Went through the revolut link to reserve a couple of items to collect in Argos, paid in store with my Revolut, got no cash back unfortunately.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56 ✭✭SmithJames84


    Is the Samsung discount gone from Revolut?



  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 5,432 Mod ✭✭✭✭Optimus Prime


    Still there for me in shops anyways.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,329 ✭✭✭Buffman


    Was it the next day or later when you actually paid Argos? The cashback apparently resets at midnight. I always enable it just before actual payment both in store and online and got the cashback OK.

    I went through the Revolut app yesterday to reserve in store , paid by Revolut same day in store , no cashback .

    Was a couple of hundred quid Xmas present expenditure, would have been nice to get a few quid back .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,329 ✭✭✭Buffman


    Ouch, ye, that's a pity. Might be worth your while querying that one with Revolut. I don't know for sure how long the cashback 'activation' lasts for.
