Scotrail cashback
Very happy money paid no problem quick as well

Sometimes fine, sometimes rubbish
Scotrail will do cash back and decline lots for who knows why. Hit and miss.

Never tracks
Sometimes pays out when it does track, but rarely tracks despite journeys made in Scotland. Better off buying Scottish journeys on another site that has working cashback.

Pays out every time
Really happy with them. Tracks instantly and pays out, often really quick (3-4 days).

Never traces
Years ago when it offered cashback for all journeys, it didn't trace. Last year it offered cashback for Scottish journeys, it didn't trace. Today I travel in Scotland again with a ticket bought yesterday, it didn't trace as well.

Never trace my order
I have been used to book train tickets every week since April, but never show a single record on my account so I have to claim missing cashback every time. They're all operated by Scotrail, travelling withing Scotland, and it's not seasonal ticket or purchase with discount code or what.

Have had to raise a claim for every single purchase
I have had to raise a manual claim for every single purchase as it hasn't been added automatically at all. Bit of an annoyance.

They decline payment
Use another source of ticket/rail provider as Scotrail decline payment of transactions.

Payable much quicker than most and tracked every time
Everytime I've needed to buy train tickets I've bought directly from scotrail via the topcashback link. Cashback has always tracked almost immediately and payable very quickly (under 2 weeks). It quickly adds up.

Randomly declines transactions
Regularly have to raise customer service tickets for declined transactions, despite tickets being fully purchased within the terms and trips fully undertaken. Sometimes payment is eventually made but also had the response "Order cancelled, returned, part returned or exchanged" from Scotrail, none of which had occurred. So overall fairly unreliable.

Declined. Use other provider.
Cashback declined, same as almost everyone else. Will not be buying directly from ScotRail again.

Missing Cashback every time
Every time I use Scotrail with TopCashback I have missing cashback.

Cashback rejected for no reason
I will book from now on using third parties, as they give the cashback.

Always had a great service
No issue with travelling but more Hygiene/cleanliness can be taken care. Mostly on time.

Declined cashback
Declined cashback stating journey not on scotrail in Scotland, even when journey was from Aberdeen to Edinburgh on a Scotrail HST. Same negative reviews as others have experienced. I will be using another operator to buy tickets from in future and only use LNER service trains.

Not a single trip has tracked
Of more than 6 trips, taken wholly on Scotrail and booked via TCB not a single one has tracked. But let’s face it Scotrail aren’t known for honesty and integrity

Lucky if it registers
I use scotrail all the time for my travel - it is generally up to luck as to whether the cashback goes through or not. Unless i've missed something it will only work on standard tickets not season ticket purchases

Cashback approved, then declined
Booked Scotrail tickets on TCB via the Scotrail website. All journeys were with Scotrail and all within Scotland. All Scotrail cashback going back to January has been declined today, after being approved previously.

False advertising
Claim was declined even though the trip - Glasgow to Edinburgh - matched all the terms they set out. Suspect they are getting some extra traffic by using this site but it's on false pretences - maybe try the trainline instead

Lottery
Even on fully ScotRail journeys seems to decline cashback randomly.

Book elsewhere!
Used Scotrail for cashback on a train journey and after much heel dragging they declined the claim, stating that they only paid cashback on Scotrail operated journeys. At the time of booking this wasn't a term on the TCB and after me complaining TCB stepped in and honoured the cashback as they agreed Scotrail had been misleading.

Changes terms nearly a year after transaction, then applies it retrospectively. Totally dishonest company.
