Deal Details
This is so unbelievably cheap and petty of paypal. They somehow screwed up the reward for my final two items. Their system split it up and then only gave me a percent reward for a smaller portion of the split. At first I thought it was an honest mistake but I've been chasing them with calls and messages for 1 month now and they've kept moving me to someone else, promising to fix it and just goes silent. Hilariously pathetic for a huge company like this. The total amounts to like 50 dollars worth. I couldn't even believe it. Every time I talk to a rep, they act like they can't understand what's happening. Sometimes they even try to gaslight me into thinking it's normal. One time i waited like 20mins to talk to someone, then they say they couldn't do anything because they were not the pay later department, they're the regular rewards department. Then I get sent over and the guy tries to send me back to the original one. Then he lied to convince me it's a different one. I got back to that old one and it's a different person, but they say oh we can't do it, you need to email paypal. Then I went through messages and like 3 different person got on the chat and said they'll fix it but just go silent. Then one person say they'll email them and I'll receive an email reply in 7-10 days. What an absolute sh show. Pathetic company.

The whole $585 purchase was predicated upon getting $117 back. Absolutely disingenuous of PayPal to pull this. And points just disappeared silently. No email, no intimation - nothing!

I had planned on calling PayPal customer service this Friday. Then today I got an email from Honey stating they manually added my 8800 reward points to my account, which they did.
