Apple Store - 6% cash back

[Cmaier]

This is pretty big news: https://appleinsider.com/articles/2...ffering-6-daily-cash-on-apple-store-purchases

I have a bunch of pending transactions from my purchase of MacBook Pro and accessories, and the wallet is showing them at 3%, but maybe since they are “pending” that will turn to 6% when the card is charged?

My friend just purchased a MBP 16 - I just asked him it is showing or not. Will report back.

For all those that put major $ into these new MBPs - there is going to be a lot of upset people if they don't get it lol.

I’ll be mildly annoyed, but not enough to cancel the orders and re-order. I’d prefer to get my machine in November and not January

Yeah he put in his order about 30 mins ago - said delivery was late November, early December for the 16. That's going to be a long November. lol.

If this is true, time for me to order some stuff.

Well my bad for assuming he used his Apple Card - he didn't. lol Oh well. He should have!

I haven’t been charged yet for my MBA since it’s not due until the first week in November. But nothing else has shown anything other than 3%.

From AppleInsider:

It isn't entirely clear when exactly the promotional rate kicked in, though some users have noticed the 6% cash back on their MacBook Pro pre-orders. However, some users aren't seeing that amount for their own Apple Store transactions. This may be because their apps have yet to update with the promotional rate.

Mine shows 3%. Sad.

Mine shows 3%. Sad.

Mine too, but fingers crossed that it updates by the time the card is actually charged.

Boo hiss

Bummer. I guess we’ll just have to settle for the 3%.

 

[SuperMatt]

Not surprised.

When I picked up the little G's M1 MBP I got 6%, and it was a limited time offer, so it has come up at least once

(it was also a refurb, ~$1400 + 6% cashback was pretty swell)

I also have a business account partially setup, I think we get a point or two at the lowest, I know my recent iPhone AC+ was discounted.

Y'all should have kept it hush lol
