Re: Still waiting for £50 cashback as promised

Hi @very452001

 

On first glance, I'm not sure how/why you would have a cashback offer if you're referring to the account I've found from your forum information, as we only offer cashback on new signups.

 

Having said this, please leave this with me. I'll look in to this matter further and get back to you.

Thanks for your patience.

Re: Still waiting for £50 cashback as promised

Not to worry @very452001,

 

I'd seen that on the account and that's exactly what I forwarded on to our marketing team.

 

Given the note on the account, I fully imagine the question is more how our marketing team want us to send the £50, rather than if we'll be sending it. Although the offer should not have been offered, I don't see us not honouring the offer that was clearly document on the account.

 

Apologies for the time it's taking to get an answer on this, I do appreciate your patience.

Must be some cheque if it takes them 60 days to process it, or do they just have a very slooooow computer system?

Re: Still waiting for £50 cashback as promised

The standard time frame we advise is 60 days when sending the cashback cheques out.

 

However as this offer that has been given doesn't actually exist and should not have been offered, that is irrelevant as nothing has been sent yet and I am awaiting a response from the marketing team confirming how they want to proceed with this matter.

See post #4  the date given was 19/1/2017?  Unless my arithmetic is flawed that is more than 60 days.

Very poor marketing response.

However the key thing here is:

My previous post actually isn't entirely correct. The 60 day lead time relates to the cashback lead time we used to advise back when we offered cashback on some retention offers, which we haven't done for over a year.

 

As the offer didn't exist back in January when the OP was given the offer, there was nothing in place to process the non-existent offer to send a cheque out.

 

As such, I'm trying to honour this and chasing our marketing team for a response that I imagine will be either that they're manually forcing an offer through to honour this, or authorising me to issue a refund for the amount in question.

 

The 60 days is completely irrelevant in relation to the current situation of me chasing our marketing team for an update on the escalation I have raised.

Re: Still waiting for £50 cashback as promised

Apologies for the delays in getting an answer on this. I've sent a chaser email to the relevant people over in our marketing team regarding the cashback and I'm hoping for a response tomorrow when they're back in the office.

 

I'll aim to get a response tomorrow for you.

 

Thanks for your continued patience.
