The app sends you to a station for an offer but then says it can't find the transaction. It marks it as "needs review" but there's no review. You get trapped in an endless chat bot that won't let you actually speak to a real person. Constant "ok, but first enter xxx" when you ask for help. I have 6 or 7 offers that need review and won't be paid. So ultimately, I went to stations that had higher prices because of offers, and now they refuse to pay it.

Cashing out for the first time. So far, been saving up for about 8 months. only 2 gripes: Some stations started out offering several cents back, but now only 1¢ or nothing. Also, I wish I didn't have to switch back and forth between regular and premium to see the prices for each. My daily car takes regular, my classic muscle car takes premium. it's just one extra step that I have to take any time I need to gas up the fun car. (Tip - many loyalty programs do not affect the cash back from Upside!

It's pretty much a way for stores to get a bit of extra sales. you go out of your way to drive to the locations with the "offers" yet I'm 50/50 currently on them honering the receipts. One was an issue where my card wouldn't work at the pump so I had to go in and pay first. The other I still haven't heard back on, but I'm sure it is going to be declined because it has taken way too long. Not worth the effort unfortunately.
