I was just looking at MS Live's Cash Back and noticed that 11 stores are now up to 62.5% with 18 more at 50+%. There seems to be a similar/proportional increase in many other stores as well.

Has anyone actually successfully received Cash Back from MSFT? I have a lot pending from eBay and other stores, but no payout yet. However, the 30%+ at Backcountry and Altrec is super hot!
The only thing is some of the CashBack doesn't show up no matter how I pay. I have three orders right now that don't show CashBack. I have to wait a week then email and hope they credit my account. For one I used paypal, but the other two I paid the merchant directly with a credit card after going through the Live link and getting confirmation before the homepage of the merchant loaded. My browser was set to accept cookies. Still a great deal, but kind of a hassle at times. And then some merchants show CashBack right away.

I just got a VERY large check, but it was all "old" Cash Back, made under jellyfish program. So they do pay, as long as transaction was registered

Umm, no, it's anything but a given. This new program is apparently entirely different and if you take the time to read the eBay/Paypal CashBack thread you would see that MANY people have received notification that they are not receiving their CashBack simply because eBay/microsoft "believed" they bought the stuff to resell.
In particular, a guy made a large purchase at Eastbay, and they have since denied his CashBack.
BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS PROGRAM - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
Let me reiterate - purchases at normal retailers can be denied for any reason MS/eBay feels like, and they've already proven it several times. (This is not just applicable to eBay purchases)

Musta been a typo of an actual 6.25% CB, highest I see now is anu-skin and accessory geeks at 40%.
I have $25.50 in my account from a June 17 eBay purchase. You have to ask for your check by signing in and going to "Your Account" at livesearch.
Oops, never mind. That was only the "A" section.

If you consider buying lots of stuff using the CashBack because of the great percentages off abuse, then whatever.
Go ahead, buy lots of stuff at these "awesome" percentages off, and then wonder later when they don't pay if all they were trying to do was write sucker on your account.
