My Take:
Cashbaq’s cashback rates look pretty competitive at first glance, and I like the Great Deals that they provide when you log in. They allow members to comment on their merchants and they provide coupon codes — sortable by newest, free shipping, shipping specials, and PayPal stores (which is kind of neat). I like this site and am surprised I let it fly under my radar for so long. Looks great!

i do recall leaving a message about a year ago, wondering why Cashbaq was not included in the 2008 Shopping Rebates Comparison… it’s far better than a lot of the ones you review.
Wish I would’ve gotten off my duff and reviewed it then, Darrin! They WILL be in this year’s chart (working on it furiously in another window). Should be interesting to see how they stack up!
Becky, thanks for the good review. We’ve been working hard to add the features that our members have been asking for. There have been a few changes since you wrote this and there are several projects that will roll out early next year. And if you like that we have almost 3,000 online stores and services, just wait until 2010!
We are honored to be included included in your annual round up.

I am a member at cashbaq. I earned a check in Nov which I never received via USPS. I have submitted 6 tickets with their customer service and a phone message since 12/3. I have neither heard back from them nor received the check.
To this point, I have concluded that
1) their customer service is non existent or is ignoring me.
2) stated cash payouts are irrelevant if they do not pay your earnings.
