Is Microsoft Cashback a scam?

I purchased a order from samsung.com via Microsoft Cashback and it immediately said my cashback is success. However, several days later, the cashback case even disappeared from the pending cashback category. I would not make that purchase without the cashback, and yes, I contact them via the Microsoft cashback webpage, and no one respond. So it does look like a scam. Any ideas?

    I have been trying to "cash out" the cashback. I have reset my password, reentered my info ... you name it, and I have done it.

    At this point, I am convinced that it is a Microsoft scam.

    Yup. Same experience here. They want to know how I signed up. I don't recall. All I know is they say my purchases are covered. They show as pending then they disappear.

    This sounds like a class-action lawsuit is warranted. It may only benefit the lawyers but it would be fun to watch.

    I ordered a new phone and smart watch from Samsung, I should have $120+ coming to me from the 10% cash back offered by Edge. It disappeared and have tried to email customer support to no avail. I have only supposedly made 0.72 cents and I've made far more purchases with higher offers than that with the emails confirming "we got you covered" which is bull. I believe it is a scam and they only want to offer this fake feature to get more people to use Edge and therefore collect your data.

    I have two cases open, purchases in October 2023, there have been responses, but they have not been resolved. In November I made six purchases, "We've got your cash back covered", without receiving any money. I see the same issues in these posts and agree with them.
