I use Mr Rebates also and what I like about it is I can let it build up to a healthy amount before I request a check.

I haven't received my check either.  However, last time I went to Rakuten it would no longer allow me to use the site without disabling my Ad Blocker.  I also use Shop At Home and so far this has not been an issue with them, so I may stop using Rakuten and look at one of the other sites like Mr. Rebates so I can choose whichever one has the highest rebate at he time.  Anybody know if these other sites require you to disable your Ad Blocker to use it?

I don't use Rakutan, but am surprised they can't send the money electronically.

Received my latest check on time. Haven't had any problems with Rakutan. Started using them last year.

I got my check in about 7 to 10 days.

I emailed Rakutan and their response was they will void the missing check but will not send the replacement until their next payout date of April 15 th. I think that is so unfair because it's not my fault the check never arrived.  I'm very disappointed, the check was over $100.


I believe the next mailing is May 15.  Maybe the *cutoff* for eligible rebates ends on April 15.  

 

Unless they're just going to cut you a check on that specific date.

 

Keep a tally of all you're owed.

@lovesrecess   They can and do transfer money electronically.  I've used Rakuten for years, and they always automatically transfer my money to PayPal.  I don't understand why others don't realize this or use it.  It's stated very plainly on their website and is easy to set up.

I use Mr Rebates.  No matter when you request a check, their cut off is the first of the next month.
