As others have said, this appears to be some audit process, where they have corrected where they gave 1% rather than 3% on ebates Visa purchases. So $81 I wasn't expecting, but fine.
This really has me going back and scouring my account, sometimes I tend to gloss over stuff then after some time has passed I realize hey some of my money back didn't post. I know they got me a few times on the in store cash back with the linked card, and then you have to email them receipts which after time past you may not have. I'm now doing better tracking on a spreadsheet and which card I used, cause I like all my money, now if they would just bring Apple back I would be elated, it's just iTunes now so the reward base is better with the Barclaycard Apple on that one. I did get some older Bloomingdale purchases just recently posted though
In my case, I only used ebates for Amex Gift card purchases (which no longer get rewards) and as these were $4-6K each order,, generating significant cash back, I do remember complaining at the time when they didn't post correctly. It's just possible I missed this one, as I was getting fed up having to complain each time. But now I assume I am either whole or more than whole
Unexpected money is a good thing! Nice!
