    Not worth your while unless you dont mind waiting until 2014 to receive the money from Fatcheese

    Money will be paid by the end of june according to the blurb.
    Ive found Fatcheese quiet reliable with over €200 being returned to me.

    Either way this deal is free money for trialing a product.

    As above I made over €240 using the fatcheese links with Sky, Vodafone, etc only had a problem with the O2 Free Sim for €2 .

    Just remember to cancel the trial if you don't want to use it after the month trial.

    Sounds good, same with me, fatcheese always give out the money.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,243 ✭✭✭✭Jesus Wept


    Fatcheese stopped paying me out a time ago and stopped responding to emails.
    They also banned me from their facebook page as I pointed out what a shower of thieving ***** they are.

    I've never had a problem with them paying out, Vodafone was very slow (3 months) but every other cashback deal was OK.

    Fatcheese are a joke.

    Doesn't really matter with this particular offer as you can just cancel the Netflix subscription but be very careful about buying something and basing the price on the net cost after a Fatcheese refund. You may not get it.

    I have 3 claims with FC at the moment, the oldest one going back to last August. No reply or response from their "customer service".

    Through what retailers though?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,267 ✭✭✭mcgovern


    I had one through Book Depository that took about a year to come through. Another through Zavvi that is open 4 months. Gave up on them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,739 ✭✭✭nava


    My €5 in my Fatcheese account, on pending status for payment July.

    I had a claim with them relating to ASOS. They were absolutely awful at keeping me up to date with what was happening, and I eventually forgot about it.

    12 months after the claim was first logged Fatcheese awarded me the commission I should have got from Asos as part of their guarantee. I gather Asos wouldn't pay so Fatcheese paid me themselves?!?!

    Avoid fatcheese.

    I'm waiting 6 months on a paypal payment that should have gone through in October!

    Horrendous people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭ixtlan


    Maybe people are being too hard on Fatcheese?

    I have a right to complain...
    Book Depository 2 months
    Vodafone 10 months.
    Meteor 13 months.
    Komplett, 13 months and counting.

    However... eventually... it seems the payments come through... So as others have said don't buy anything assuming the fatcheese discount, but equally don't ignore the discount just because it will take a long long time.

    Ix.

    AFAIK, komplett are no longer on fatcheese, so I'll doubt you'll get your money
    Vodafone don't usually take that long. I received two cashback rewards through Vodafone, both paid within two months


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,104 ✭✭✭groom


    I've submitted two transactions through them and both have gone through. Sky and meteor.

    I signed up yesterday via xbox. was told i needed xbox live
    had an offer for 2 mths for €2. did it via paypal so all very harmless


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 588 ✭✭✭littlehedgehog


    Took about 6 months for a claim (HotelHippo) to go through, but all my other bits and bobs went through within a week.

    I took out the money there, because of the length of that claim, into my bank account, and it only took 2 days to arrive.

    I was going to give up on them, but 2 days was pretty damn good!

    Anyway, on topic - Loving Netflix, wish I knew about this offer before I signed up!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,625 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    I eventually forgot about it.

    I'd say you're not the only one!

    All were awarded in last 2 weeks. Pleasantly surprised. I had given up on the hotel one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,258 ✭✭✭✭km79


    There should be an image with that last post ?
    Netflix took almost 3 months

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 630 ✭✭✭irishbloke77

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,960 ✭✭✭Soarer

    Did the trial but never paid by Fatchance.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,739 ✭✭✭nava

    Do you see the transaction as pending in your fatcheese account?

    No.

    I lodged a claim at the time (in May) and it shows as pending - but that's a different thing I think.

    Yes it's different, in some cases those claims take a few months, did you watch the 5 hours on Netflix?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,382 ✭✭✭firestarter51


    i got my 14 euro last week, two months after the trial, free money how bad

    Ha, well I don't use it that much. Its better not checking every day for your money.

    I just think if you are patient and don't buy something due to the fatcheese savings then you should be fine. I have saved over 300 euro in 2 years. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,060 ✭✭✭Kenny Logins


    That's 2 months with no response from anybody at Fatcheese. Nothing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 882 ✭✭✭PeterDuggan


    Has anyone who cancelled after the first trial month actually got the Fatcheese/Netflix €5 cashback?

    I'm wondering if maybe only those who continued on to actually pay a subscription were paid the cashback? All should have got it of course - but we are talking about Fatchance!

    I got 14 back after just over two months, I cancelled mine after a week, most of the stuff on there I have already via other sources online


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,815 ✭✭✭sunbeam


    I cancelled just before the free trial month ended and got 14 Euro cashback two months later.

    Did you watch the 5 hours of programs as needed to get the €5 cashback? I got mine a of days after I completed the 5 hours.
