ebates . com you say on tv, as easy as 123, thats a lie Internet

i have been with this company since June or July, 2012, i have not received a penny yet i was making a lot of purchases at stores that were on their site, i was later told that i had to go through ebates first to recieve cash back, that was a waste of time. i made 8 purchases on amazon since 7/21/ 2012, going through Ebates and still nothing. on tv they make it seem so  easy but its not, i have made over $80.00 worth of purchases and still nothing, i entered tracking numbers, dates, and order numbers, and they still want you to copy and paste the confirmation number, that does'nt make any sense. i believe that they get paid for you going to these sites and then they don't want to pay up, shame on you Ebates
