Booked months ago sat on ice and now waiting again
Not sure now how long will need to wait. But wasn’t tracked at the time, has now been sent to travel republic a week after I’ve had my holiday could be months before I see anything.

Took nearly a year but finally payable
Transaction date 11th feb 2024 - payable 15th october 2024 For an estimated 11 weeks turnaround! Payment is incorrect but at least its something, think im missing about 40 quid of what i was expecting, but it is what it is, seems to be the way on here these days

No payment
My hotel stay ended early march 24, I am still waiting for Travel Republic to pay out on the £200+ that I am owed in Sept 24. It states it will be payable in 12 weeks. Topcashback should really stop having them as a partner if they are not paying out for the majority of claims.

Every stage of the cashback process failed and required persistent to final
I've had 2 transactions with Travel Republic. Both had identical failures; cashback failed to track, had to raise a missing claim, eventually the transaction was confirmed, then nothing! I had to raise complaints with Customer Service who eventually paid out as a gesture of goodwill even though they themselves hadn't received the funds from Travel Republic. The only plus is the cashback received was a sizable chunk, so worth persisting with.

I have now been waiting 3 months for my cash back and still waiting!
Why does a company take your booking and promise a 10% or 5% cashback when they don't pay up, this is miss selling a holiday and cashback should stop dealing with them or pay up. I dont know why it takes so long for them to pay up, all other companies pay up 4 weeks after the holiday.

Did eventually pay out
I had to create a claim and keep on top of it but for a holiday booking that ended 26 Jan 2024, they paid out against it on 11 July 2024. Judging by other reviews that is quite quick for this merchant.

2 years to get the money
It took over 2 years to get my cashback for a holiday booking, persistence is key with this, but it should never have taken that long!

declined
Booked and paid for 2 bookings months in 9 months in advance, over £200 in cash back declined for no reason, these are not package holidays even when you book flights and hotels together, when you have problems with bed bugs they say sue the hotel no help what so ever, avoid.

Very slow
Booked holiday with Travel Republic via TCB 28 July 2023 for a December trip. Understand that the cashback would be not payable until the trip completed. However, then had to wait until May 2024 until the cashback was payable. They do notify a 12week wait for cashback but this well exceeded this and on top of the initial wait for the holiday to come around, seemed extreme. I am almost ready to book my next annual trip - but unsure I will book with Travel Republic - rates will have to be amazing. To say it was a disappointment was an understatement … Don’t know if this is holiday retailers generally or just Travel Republic ??

Refused cashback
Completely met the terms and conditions but claim raised and Travel Republic refused. Very disappointed. Would not use Travel Republic again.

A YEAR LATER AND STILL NO PAYOUT
It is more than a year since I booked through Travel Republic. I had to put in a cashback claim when it didn’t track. It then showed in my account as payable, when I checked again it then came up rejected! I’ve asked TopCashback customer service for an update on numerous occasions, but just keep getting back they’re still chasing it. There is obviously a problem with this company, TopCashback customer services told me that!, so why are they still advertising them on their site! Due around £200 so not happy!!

A year down the line… Very slow, still not paid
Purchased holiday in Jan 2023, took trip in Aug. TopCashback indicator states ‘We last received a payment from Travel Republic in January 2024, for members' transactions in September 2023’. But my £300+ is still at confirmed stage. I did factor the cashback rate in when deciding on who to book with - and I shouldn’t do this and should just go with the best price as cashback is too flakey with large amounts. I can see that other reviewers have been paid recently, so I’m not sure what the deciding factor is on who gets paid and who doesn’t as my transaction was before the dates quoted.

Yearly Fight for cash back
It would be really great if I didn’t have to fight and chase Travel Republic for my cashback. I follow all of the instructions and still wait months on end for a resolution. Claims are sometimes declined and then I have to ask TCB to go back to them again to explain why it has been declined, then it’s accepted and processed. It just shouldn’t be so difficult.

About time!
Bought a holiday in January 2023, got back from it in July 2023 and it has taken until 15th January 2024 to get paid! As a result, I bought this year' summer hol two weeks ago from TUI instead.

Avoid
Cashback tracked and was confirmed after the holiday which was months ago. Still not payable. Customer support was useless. Don’t rely on Cashback from this company

Nice little cheeky cashback from Travel Republic just after XMAS, love that for me. I booked early in the year and just departed recently so took a lil long but totally worth it!!! Defo booking again =))))))

Maldives Holiday Cashback
Cashback tracked accordingly and got a nice amount back off my Maldives Holiday. It took 30 days after departure which is under the 90 days stated in the T&C's. Good prices and good cashback = win win :)

Does pay cashback
10 months later and still no cashback. TCB should remove Travel Republic from the site. Travel Republic used to pay cashback about 10years ago but not now

Seems like a Con
Have two payments "confirmed" but no actual cashback even though actual holidays are long ago. I'm not sure who is most to blame - whether Travel Republic for failing to pay out OR Topcashback for continually advertising this company when they know they are failing to pay out. TC tell me TR has a 90%+ payout rate but this would seem to conflict with the reviews given here. TC also needs to realise that issues like this BADLY tarnishes their reputation - I know I wouldn't currently recommend anyone to go via their site for a holiday booking

Cashback refused with no reason supplied
Went with Travel Republic based on the cashback rate. Not guaranteed I know, but never had cashback issues before. Completed the purchase completely online without using another code. Completed my stay, then was told the cashback was refused as it didn't meet T's and C's. Raised a claim to ask which weren't met, but wasn't given a reason by Travel Replublic. Dissapointed.

4 months from confirmation and no movement
Holiday booked in January, holiday done and dusted in May, transaction confirmed June now four months on still not paid. Disappointed at Topcashback for not keeping on top of this merchant and allowing this to happen. Seems to bea regular issue looking by the reviews.
