Mobile phone cash back. Does it work?
The obvious catch is that the money back is by redemption and if you forget or are late you loose out.
Am I missing anything else on these deals.
Experiences good and bad welcome.

Like you say, you have to be on the ball with dates - swmbo had one a few years ago where you had to send bills back, and they had to be originals,
with your original customer number on or something, with about a 7 day window for them to receive it - they make it as awkward as possible to get,
certainly.....

I have done several through e2save.com
Despite being late on a couple, they always sent me my cheques... You need to be very organised and disciplined to ensure you do them on time (I hgave
all responsibility to my organised other half!)....
I recoeved every penny owed to me, and I even go a rebate 3 months after leaving e2save.com, in the form of a cheque in the post for nearly £100
(completely out of the blue)...

I've had two - one worked fine as long as you sent the right bits of paper to the right address within the right period of time.
The other went bust after 1 payment so I was out of pocket. The problem seems to be that the companies offering the deals are (usually? always?) not
the same as the service provider, so if they go under or otherwise disappear there is little you can do.

done it with buymobilephones.net
worked well apart from the time we did the redemption ones. you need to send a bill within 7 days of it being released. pain in arse to remember ever
month for 24 months lol
auto cashback works well.
