Wish the process were smoother / better and the payout much faster, but SD did make it right. I think I've read others have the similar experiences where eventually they did get their rebate.
That being said, like with any Rebate and/or CB and/or trade-in (phones), documentation is a must and key. I made sure to screenshot every step including the referring / referral URL showing etc. The screenshots + the e-mail confirmations + referral URL's were almost concrete evidence that I fulfilled all requirements. I'm sure SD will make it much better going forward ... at least that is my hope, but don't give up! Whether the hassle / potential delays are worth it to you, that's a personal choice.
In any case, thought I might share my experience. Was as frustrated as most of you back earlier this year when I first escalated this, but today, I am happy I got my rebate
What do you think the odds were of you getting the rebate without screenshots to prove you did in fact do it correctly? Either their system is flawed and not tracking correctly or it isn't flawed and, well I won't say, but you get my meaning.
Given the high rate of issues, it is possible that the method used by SD is flawed and/or did not think through all the various setups / scenarios. But on this point, the Staff has been more than willing to help. I.E. I was DM'ing with someone @ SD per their ask and trying to work through some of the missing CB.
All this said, the e-mails I sent across w/ time stamps and coinciding with the SD rebate submittal were enough for an initial investigation (took a few weeks to months) but then ultimately they couldn't find the record / referral. My screenshot showing the actual referral link showing on the Sofi website w/ unique information was probably the determining factor in escalating to management and management probably approving a one-off.
Summary: Probably not very likely since there could be a variety of reasons why SD didn't get notified, some of which could be attributed to a flawed system while others could be trying to double dip and/or something else.
Edit: Received email and it just says the following:

Luckily enough I enjoy the sofi account. Makes it easy for a casual investor to have some funds in various markets. My advice- do not open this account for the $75 slickdeals rebate because it is a toss up if you'll actually receive it.

Tracking cookies are a simple thing and not controlled or limited by ad blockers etc. It's like a scam they are in cahoots with each other.
I signed up back on 5/25 and no bonus so far.
