Order made 7/10/23, $50 reward available to withdraw 8/24/23. Brand new RetailMeNot account.
Mine never tracked correctly: “Gift Card Mall will let us know about your purchase. Once we’re notified, we’ll send you an update by email.”
Tracking on RMN just changed to $0, with this message:
You did not spend the minimum amount required for this offer.
Did this happen to anyone else?
Mine initially tracked but was ultimately rejected, saying “Looks like your purchase didn’t quite meet all of the offer’s requirements.”
Same message. Amount and purchase total are $0.
Same to me. Initially tracked, but not $0 because of “You did not spend the minimum amount required for this offer.” Just created a ticket. Was a Visa giftcard excluded? I don’t remember.
Ditto. Screw the granny and RMN. VGC were not excluded, you can still see the offer at https://www.retailmenot.com/cashback/Q3C6AARUQZFYFKQO6LSJBBDHOY
How do you know that GCG is part of this nonsense? I think it’s all RMN.
Well, you can’t win them all but at least I got a pretty fast response from my ticket to RMN. They are blaming the GCG and told me to wait and see if it tracks properly. I’ve dealt with RMN before with no issues and they have a pretty good rep. First time I’ve ever dealt with GCG, not going smoothly. The BBB reviews are also pretty bad for GCG and not too bad for RMN.
Did you only do a purchase through GCG or did you do GCM also? Normat and I did both offers and we received a different (worse) message that you did.
I did only the GCG offer.
lilurbanachiever,
They are presumably mad at Normat and me because we did both offers. As far as I know, no one else on DoC did both offers as no one replied to my question in the other post. RMN seems to be more understanding with you because you only did 1 offer.
Normat,
Any update on your situation with RMN?
Eric How old is you RMN account – sometimes they really do not like recently opened accounts going for bigger deals right away. Good luck. Personally, I am not too optimistic they will pay out no matter which tone they use in their replies.
lilurbanachiever,
My account is several years old but I also haven’t used it in several years. The most annoying thing is that they refused to reveal what I did wrong.
Did they have you file an appeal like they did for Normat and me?
They just told me to wait. I am not holding my breath – these cashback deals are almost always iffy.
No update yet. They said that they’d email me in about 7 days, which is next week.
I did both offers, and both got the “Ineligible due to suspected violation of Terms. Please contact Customer Care if you believe this was in error” note after they were pending for a few weeks. I sent in a ticket and am waiting for a response.
Just another Masshole,
This actually makes sense. They told me that they check user accounts randomly every so often. It seems that they just happened to check my account the day after I placed my orders so that’s why my purchases never even went pending. I have a feeling there will be more of these DP as time goes on.
Eric Did they ever get back to you regarding your appeal?
Just another Masshole,
Yes, they did. They denied it. Let me know what happens with yours.
Eric They just approved my appeal!
Just another Masshole,
That’s great for you. Did you use RMN regularly before this? Did you get any fraud alerts while completing these orders? I’m trying to figure out what the difference is between your case and mine.
I used it once before last year. Accidentally had a second account with them which I think was the issue. Never had a fraud alert never made returns through them
Eric To my surprise they approved my appeal and credited my account.
lilurbanachiever,
Nice.
Normat,
Did you ever hear back from RMN?
Yes, they reinstated my account and credited for both GCG and GCM. The credit for GCM was quick (took about a week), but for GCG I had to wait for about a month until a few days ago.
Mine did too. For both GCG and GCM
That VGC was rejected by my insurance that accepts pretty much all other VGCs and MGCs. But luckily the tax payment processors accepted it.
just tracked.
William Charles they pulled the offer
Due to popular demand, this Cash Back offer is no longer available.

Tracked for me on a virtual VGC, just got the email from RMN.
Got the email from retailmenot for my $500 MC gift card purchase last night. Anyone know if you can get this rebate on multiple purchases?
You got tracking on a physical card? Was your first payment attempt declined?
Virtual MC, and went through the first time with Paypal.
In for 1, last time i used retailmenot they didnt pay.. we’ll see. I did a MC plastic card with free shipping. Anyone know if i can pay CITI with these cards? Probably not likely
My credit card was declined when entered on the site. I retried the transaction using paypal for the same credit card and it went through..
