As expected, cashback was declined
Following on from my previous review on 8 June, unsurprisingly they declined my cashback. I really don't know why they are still on here when clearly, reading the reviews, many claims are declined. For a company that allegedly prides customer service, this part of their business is an epic fail. I have another claim with them that has been outstanding since February 2026; I will not hold my breath on this one being honoured either and will certainly never buy from them again.

Terrible support from John Lewis
Took 7 months to pay cash back which should have been paid within 10 weeks.

Delay In Processing Cashback Items
I've ordered numerous items from John Lewis including several tranches of travel money as their exchange rate was pretty good and easy to collect from my local Waitrose store. Unfortunately, in my experience, the cashback takes absolutely forever to become payable. I've ordered several times in January & February 2026, where anticipated wait was 12 weeks. Sitting here in mid July (almost 6 months later), confirmed but still not "payable" and will need to go to Cashback Customer Services to try to resolve. They are one of the worst payers, yet pride themselves on good customer service...................

Be careful
Cashback was refused on a large fridge freezer purchase. Just be aware that if there are any offers applied by JL when you’re buying - even if it’s not a code as such - you won’t get a payout. TCB were v helpful though.

Really slow to receive cashback
From purchase to receiving cashback took about 10 months. TCB acknowleged it was taking too long and paid it themselves. Thank you TCB!

Refused cashback
I ordered a few hundred of pounds worth of products via them and first the cashback didnt track so I had to manually apply for it, it took around 11months for them to pay any attention to it and when they did they just declined it, only used them because if the cashback offer, wont use them again

Tries to get away without paying!!!
Bought a £450.00 bag from them, they've just ignored the request for cash back, which is a pathetic £3.00 had to take it further. I could of ordered from someone else if id of known they were going to be scamming people.

Avoid if cashback is the decider
Cashback rarely tracks and when it does they usually deny the claim. Terrible experiences every time, fortunately only for pennies.

Cashback not paid
The transaction tracked as it should, including the value and order number, yet John Lewis has denied cashback. If cashback is a deciding factor, do not trust John Lewis. It is disappointing that Top Cash Back allow them to remain on the site, as other reviews suggest a similar experience.

struggle to see it hit half the time.
Honestly its like 5 out of 10 times I see a case back. Clearly not worth it to JL not sure why they are on here. Its frustrating.

Such a struggle to get cashback from them
Made a purchase in September 2025, which of course did not track!!! Raised a claim with Top Cashback in October 2025. Estimated payable time according to John Lewis is 11 weeks which would be fabulous if this was true........ In January 2026 I was notified that cashback was indeed due and it was the amount I was expecting. Great I thought. However, here we are 5 months later and still no sign of any cashback. Not far off a year now since I spent almost £1,000 with them. Never again.

Cashback never arrives :(
I made two purchases, 13th and 14th October 2025. At the time of writing this review its 2nd June 2026 and still no cashback.

Very disappointing outcome
I received no cash back from this merchant and no explanation why after spending over £400. Even if items were returned to the merchant there were always items purchased and the cash back should still have been for these items. This is not the first time this merchant has refused to honour their cash back terms. I find this quite disconcerting as my wife uses her John Lewis credit card quite a lot.

I like John Lewis, but cashback never tracks

TCB generated reward vouchers seem to negate any cashback on next purchase
I just generated john lewis vouchers using my cashback reward only to find that using a voucher excludes cashback on next purchase. So stupid
