Joined BeFrugal.com because they were the only company that offered any sort of reward for two businesses I needed to deal with. BeFrugal offered cash back rewards for Appliancesconnection.com and FauxPanels.com In the midst of a home rennovation, so I was spending a lot of money and wated something back for it.
I placed an order with both of these companies, about $900 at one and about $3000 at the other, both were placed within days of each other, both at the beginning of February. No cash back was received. Finally after a month, I made an inquiry. I was told to submit copies of email confirmations from businesses, totals, and information. Did it, and was told they would investigate. Another month goes by and no cash back. Contacted them again, they said they were still investigating, but I probably did something wrong and didn't use their link. That was wrong, I did use their link, and told them so. They said they would continue to investigate.
After 3 months, I email again. I get a response that says the $3000 purchase would not be credited to me because the retailer said I used another link, and since Befrugal won't make any money, they can't give me cash back. There was no other link, I went directly through BeFrugal.
Next, I go online to view my account again. it says the $3000 purchase is void. But, it says the $900 purchase is confirmed and I will get $28 cash back. I click the link that says ask for payment. It says I can't have payment until I update my account information. I confirm address and update. I ask for payment again, then it says I can't have payment until I reach a balance of $25, and I have $0 to go. I request it again, it says I haven't asked for payment. I request it again, it says the $28 I'm requesting isn't confirmed.
So, after using their links, and waiting three months, nothing was received. I looked on their site and saw other customer comments, all saying nothing was received. SCAM.
