Hey All!

After lots of feedback and some odd data we saw on our end, here's some additional recommendations:

Reminder: If you have other Cashback extensions DISABLE THEM - they could definitely try and claim credit for the transaction
Once you click 'Apply Now', complete the entire process at that time. This includes opening the account AND fully funding it with at least $125.
If you add $20 in one transaction and $105 in another, this may not track correctly. Deposit the full $125 all at once (recommend using the debit card option) to ensure your data tracks to us correctly
Not doing these things will at the very least delay processing your cashback and could potentially result in us not receiving your data as an eligible account.

Thanks,
AJ
I switched to sofi through slickdeals and have had nothing but an excellent experience with them. I got my dd bonus almost immediately. I sound like a shill but I'm not, been with slick deals way before sofi. I don't think I'll ever bank with anyone else again. 2% cb credit card and interest on my checking, I'm with them for the long haul.
Hey All!

Just wanted to pop in to say we're really excited to start using Slickdeals Rewards to handle these types of bonuses going forward. We've received a LOT of feedback around things that didn't work so well in the past with our rebates.

I actually did this process myself this morning to make sure it's working automatically and so long as you've installed our Extension and enrolled in Slickdeals Rewards it works seamlessly!

On that note, we've sunset the old Slickdeals Rebates program. You can read more about that here!

Thanks!
AJ

It was a success for me. Here's my timeline:

8/8 - Opened account and funded $126 immediately with other bank's debit card
8/11 or 12- Showed 7,500 points pending on loyalty
8/16 - Points posted and showed redeemable. Redeemed same night to Paypal account.
8/18 - Direct deposit came in. Received $100 bonus from SoFi the same day

Easier than I anticipated. Thank you! Smilie

Hi there,

If you have not already, please submit a support ticket here and we will gladly assist you if you're experiencing any issues.

Thank you!

And what about those of us who've been getting monthly "we're still investigating this for you" emails several months after opening a ticket?

What can you do with Slickdeals Bonus?
A few Gift Card choices, or PayPal. I did $75 in visa gift cards that I used to pay bills online.

My experience was similar. For sure an easier experience than expected. Be sure to disable all ad blockers, and clear your browser cookies out first. I used Chrome

Thank you. Look forward to your cooperation into my case.
So much so for "working diligently to resolve this matter", huh? Bunch of con artists. It has been more than a week now and no follow-up with the support ticket. I simply had enough of these dirty Slickdeals games.

Soft, but hard for any credit cards or loans.

Hi there,

As mentioned above - this is not the same program as the rebates anybody has done in the past - we migrated this to our Slickdeals Rewards program and are handing this in a much more automatic way going forward. The only issues we've observed are if somebody has not disabled (or at least whitelisted Slickdeals + Extension) in their adblocker and/or have another cashback or coupon extension running at the same time.

Thanks,
AJ

75 down thumbs... With two staff members giving you thumbs up.

At what point will SD realize that you irreparably betrayed the trust of your community? Idk if I speak for everyone but I certainly will never even consider a "deal" if it involves relying on Slickdeals.

What can you do with the $75 of slick deals money?? Does it have to be spent on a slick deal? I was thinking of doing this for the $125, but I still have chase needing direct deposit for a couple more months until I can close it. When can you close the sofi account? How long does it need to remain open in other words and how soon can I withdraw the money?? Does the account always have to have $125 in it? I also did the bbva deal and bank of america, but I was able to close bank of america right away and bbva needed to stay open for a year. I am going to have to add $500 in direct deposit every 2 weeks in order to make this happen. Any tips on how to do this successfully and being able to close the account?

So, open an account with Sofi and you get whatever bonus SOFI gives you and NOTHING from sd because SD REBATE is a scam and the staff are full of lies.

SD REBATE = VAPOR WARE. MYTH. LEGEND. You'll have better luck finding big foot than getting that rebate

I got the points right away but can't redeem them for some reason. I click on rewards and it kicks me back to account history.
