update 13/05/2022: cashback paid out a few days ago, full £210 promised, very noice
update 23/04/2022: purchase appeared on my account today, looking good so far 👌
Hey guys, just made a £2100 purchase on eBay and used complete savings for the first time, hoping to receive £210 cashback, I know the purchase might take some time to appear on the dashboard, how long does it usually take to appear? And how reliable are they with manual cashback claims (in-case the order doesn't track)?
Basically I cleared my ebay cookies, logged into my ebay account, then I closed the ebay tab, made sure there were no adblock extensions enabled, accessed ebay through complete savings, clicked on the item I wanted, clicked buy it now and made the purchase, hopefully I didn't make a mistake.

No you've missed the point with that.
You can still get cashback from any site you want but to claim the £15 back each month you have to purchase something through the affiliate company you originally signed up with.
It appears for new users that's the case, for old users any of the the websites is still suffice.
I read a lot of reviews and they were mainly complaints about people being charged without noticing, people need to read t&c before giving in their card details man
Nice to hear, hopefully my cashback is processed duly, mind I ask, how long did it take for the purchase to appear on your account?
just a few days
I've never used complete savings, but by the looks of it they give at least 10% cashback on certain companies, ebay being one of those.
I wonder tho if its true etc, as that seems quite a good deal.
Anyone with any feedback on Complete Savings that can comment?
I've never had such a massive amount to claim on but can't see why it would be any different though, just remember there is a limit how much you can claim back if I remember correctly which is about £250
You just have to remember to claim the £15 monthly bonus every 4 weeks and it essentially won’t cost you anything to be a member.
It’s a hugely under-rated cashback scheme and so much better than Quidco or TCB.
Payments are made much quicker than those other two and the cashback rates are much higher.
thats right, you don't have to wait ages for high rates of cashback
How can I sign up ? I need an invitation link
No invite but you need to sign up through an eBay or trainline purchase to make it worthwhile instead of direct through the website (may be other sites as well you can do this but not sure)
If you sign up direct through the site it's cost £15 a month but your monthly cashback is only £5 whereas if yoh sign up through trainline or ebay you get £15 cashback so doesn't cost a penny.
Just look for the banner saying "do you want to each £16 or something along those lines and hi through that. I'll try and get a screenshot in a bit
Thank you !! I had an email from Trainline saying that from last week and I have just signed up ! I have to buy a treadmill on Ebay fro the amount of £800 so I hope to get a 10% cashback Any tricks you would recommend to absorb the cost of the monthly fee ?
I think I’ve only ever missed one monthly payment in the 3 years I’ve been with them.
I invariably always buy something on one of their partner websites anyway so always claim my £15 back but even if there is a month where you don’t buy anything online you can shop at somewhere like Superdrug and buy some toothpaste online and pick it up in store. You can claim your £15 cashback for anything, no matter how small the item. I’ve bought a 99p plug at Ebay and claimed my £15 monthly bonus on that - and got 10p cashback!!
Thank you for the info, but when it says monthly bonus it says " Every calendar month, we help you to save even more money by claiming a £15.00 Monthly Bonus.
All you need to do is make a booking with Trainline and then send us your proof of purchase. " So you say you can buy anything online to get the £15 back but that state needs to be a train ticket ? Also, I just made the purchase on Ebay using the link on their website but how can I know if has tracked correctly ? Thanks
THE list of partners is endless.
Just make sure when you are purchasing anthing through completesavings that you turn off any content blockers or adblockers you may have on then your purchase should track
I signed up through Argos, just spent £20 on something
Make sure you're not using a script blocker like brave, adblock etc, if you use Argos you can just order something and very easily cancel afterwards
Ah wasn't aware this had changed. I signed up through trainline but use ebay as I buy something off there every month, thank you for adding that info.
I have tried to claim the monthly Bonus for an eBay purchase and this has being rejected on the grounds that needs to be a train ticket because this is what I have used to signed for...What can i do know if I just get a train once in a year, any workaround?
ive bitten the bullet and every month buy a childs ticket for 95p all in........still means u gain £14.05, also possibility to refund unused ticket so maybe just the 30p booking fee to get £15 monthly bonus
This is what I did as soon as I got their email but I paid 1.5 + 0.50 booking fee as I didn't know that the child ticket is cheaper Good to know for next month
Stourbridge Junction to Stourbridge Town is 65p for a kids ticket
I registered from the link in Argos, but can I claim from eBay purchase as well..?
i claimed from ebay after signing up with trainline
Have you registered recently or are you a longterm user...? I registered last year via Argos.. but it looks like they reject anything apart from Argos..
Is this a claim for cashback or for the monthly bonus?
i signed up in january, this year
Is this true? That if you sign up from one (either eBay, or thetrainline) you are restricted to only claiming from them?
It would appear to be silly if that were the case. I mean, who would want to pay £15 a month to only get cashback from one single site.
No you've missed the point with that.
You can still get cashback from any site you want but to claim the £15 back each month you have to purchase something through the affiliate company you originally signed up with.
It appears for new users that's the case, for old users any of the the websites is still suffice.
Ahhh, thanks!
That is still awkward though. I mean, having to make a monthly purchase from a specified retailer is painful. Having to make a monthly purchase from ANY retailer is still doable, but well - that's how this game works!
I searched online, and the only way to get this seems to be to sign up.
No problem
If it was me, I'd sign up through ebay as I buy at least 1 thing a month off there so I use that purchase for my monthly bonus, obviously appreciate not everyone will do.
Signed up via eBay to. On average buy at least 1 item from eBay a month.
For the monthly bonus, if there wasn't anything specific, I buy something insignificant that could be of use sometime in the future.
There are literally 100s of shops and retailers… would take an age to list them. Easiest way would be to list which big retailers not using completesavings..
off the top of my head Amazon, John Lewis, Apple are 3 I can think of who don’t take part
