They are pushing us to go to their I-phone program. I do not wish to download an app. I am a Senior citizen and I do not wish to use their technology. I do not trust Apple or their phones. I know nothing about their app. As a matter of fact both my wife and I use flip phones to avoid this type of technical intrusion.

I have been using this for years and have redeemed the rewards for on line purchases. I have had a balance for months I cannot access. I open the site and see I have a dollar amount. They show I have an e-gift card and they show only the last four digits. I do not have a card! I have asked several times for help to no avail. I have send emails and called. Just today I got a reply after asking them to send me a card or give me the card number and a pin. They did no address my request. They only reply with a form letter.

I guess I am screwed. I cannot access or use the funds I have accumulated. I my reply to them today I suggested a class action. It would be interesting to know how many people they are ripping off and how much money is involved.

I used to love using Savings Catcher, but began to notice one by one changes being made & i knew it would eventually become impossible which it certainly has! I can't get savings catcher to come up on my phone unless i go outside the store, next i noticed none of the receipts submitted even after scanning the monitor at the register are showing up in my purchase history so no purchases or savings are noted any longer! What a greedy, money hungry company to make this impossible to use now!
It would have been more ethical if customers had just been notified that Savings Catcher had ended instead of having everyone struggle & become exasperated trying to make it work! So typical of this now infamous company!!

I think it is pretty sorry that Walmart changed the way you can submit a receipt for savings catcher. I do not want to link my debit card to the app and prefer paying by check. I always went out my way to do ALL of my shopping at Walmart to take advantage of the savings catcher, but will not be giving them my money now!!

So glad I found this complaint page. I agree with everyone! I thought I was doing something wrong because it took all of my money. I have to go with my Mom to show her how to use her money before they take that too! It just s**cks. There is Dollar General, Dollar Store, Family Dollar and Target that are more convenient anyway and I would save on gas too. I would take a serious look at what you've done Walmart. The old savings catcher was actually fun to use.

I am disgusted.

As several have already protested, Wal-Mart's move to require use of their new Wal-Mart Pay app is discriminatory, because the user has to have a smart phone. How many people who are just scraping by, perhaps on Food Stamps, can afford to own (buy, then pay fees monthly) a smart phone??? I for one cannot afford it.

This move is ill-conceived and poorly vetted and thought-out.

I hope it becomes a public relations nightmare for this company, this so-called almighty friend of the common shopper!

Someone who has the time should organize a grass-roots boycott, until the back-room geniuses at Wal-Mart understand the error of their strategy.

I think everyone is missing the point with the new Savings Catcher. Walmart has implemented the changes because they are feel that they are loosing too much money. Money is always the bottom line. They are a greedy corporation that wants to increase their bottom line as much as possible. They have put a lot of smaller or neighborhood grocery stores out of business and have done so on purpose. They opened a Walmart marketplace store in my rural area, and can you guess where, right next to the local grocery store and when the store went belly up the Walmart store closed. They have the majority of the grocery business in the country. They recently received generous tax cuts and laid off employees yet to continue to increase their bottom line they have purposely created a difficult to use program to give the appearance of helping people to save money but they are really not. I say be boycott Walmart. I am going to search for other local abd online stores to purchase from. Walmart stole the $200 I had in my account so I really don’t want to do anymore business with them. As soon as they run all of the other stores out of business their prices will go even higher and they won’t have to price match because there will be no other store to match with. Dirty. Dirty. Dirty. Greedy. Greedy. Greedy.

It is obvious that Walmart intentionally made changes to their Savings Catcher program, to make the process less user friendly and to prevent customers from getting as much money back. By removing the ability to scan receipts and forcing their customers to use the Walmart Pay app at checkout, they will discourage most customers from using this service. Most people will not want to deal with generating a receipt through the app at checkout or they will most likely forget to use the app all together.

Shame on Walmart for changing a program that was intended to show customer appreciation and making it more difficult to see any benefit from.

Savings catcher is not secure. I have had my savings catcher balance stolen twice. The second time I received an email stating that my account information had been successfully updated with my new email address and password. I never updated my information.It said Nick if you didn't make these changes to call immediately, my name isn't Nick. When I called the savings catcher team they could no longer find me in the system under my name or phone number or email. I told the lady that their system was not secure enough to put any of my financial cards on file for payment. She proceeded to tell me that I was using their program at my own risk and it was basically the same as making purchases online with my card. Their customer skills suck. I totally agree that they are trying to get rid of the whole system.

I agree with every review I’ve read so far. There is NOTHING good about the changes Walmart has made to the Savings Catcher program. I think this is just an underhanded way to discontinue the program. I had almost $200 in my SC account. I don’t want to have to add a private debit or credit card onto this in order to be able to access that money. I guess it’s gone forever. Walmart was not obligated to institute SC in the first place. It was their choice. Now it seems they regret complying with their own rules, so they’ve made the program basically useless and inaccessible. If they REALLY cared about their millions of customers - which they obviously DON’T - they’d scrap these “changes” and go back to a process that actually worked. But I won’t hold my breath. SHAME ON YOU, WALMART!!! Sam Walton would NOT approve.

This new app is discriminates against anyone who does not own a smart phones. My husband is the shopper in our family. We spend at least $800 a month on grocery items, personal items, etc. We occasionally purchase a major item like a TV, computer, etc. I can no longer scan his receipts. I had $34.76 in my account and it has somehow disappeared with the new system. I spent an hour on the phone with a rep and she couldn't explain it other than it may show up in my November bank statement. I really felt sorry for her. She tried her best to help me.

Not only do you have to use Self Checkout most of the time, but you have to wait forever to an associate to help. I tried 3 times to scan my receipt with the help of an associate. Finally succeeded. People waiting in line were not happy. This ap is not user friendly.

The most profitable company in the world has replaced employees with Self Checkout. Yes, they gave some of their employees raises, after firing a lot of them. Now, they're making it very difficult to use Savings Catcher. Guess they decided they were loosing money with the old app.

Greedy bastards! How much money can their current owners spend. It's disgraceful. I'm going to contact my lawyer to see if he's interested in filing a class action lawsuit. Save your receipts everyone. If my lawyer is not interested, I know that many others will be.

No longer a customer of Walmart. Other stores out there

If I want to use the Walmart savings catcher now the new policies force me to add my debit or credit card to Walmart Pay, then my savings automatically are applied to my next purchase. I do not want to add my financial info to yet another app! I am trying to get away with that procedure. One very cool reason I used Savings Catcher was to see price differences in my area and watch my saved dollars grow then apply them to a long awaited special purchase. It was great incentive to shop at Walmart. Now that incentive is gone so I will be going to Target, Dollar General, Family Dollar and my local grocery stores. I am so disappointed in you, Walmart!

IN THREE DAYS I SPENT OVER $500.00 THREE SEPERATE PURCHASES. I SPENT OVER AN HOUR TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY I WASN'T ABLE TO SCAN MY RECEIPTS. FOUND OUT YOU CAN'T DUE TO NEW CHANGES! SOMEONE AT WALMART CLEARING WASN'T THINKING AHEAD OR LOOKING AT THE WHOLE PICTURE, THAT IS FOR SURE. I LIKE TO
PAY CASH OR USE A CHECK. I DO NOT WANT TO PUT ANY FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON MY PHONE. " APPARENTLY I AM NOT A VALUABLE CUSTOMER. " WHAT ABOUT THE PERSON WHO HAS A FLIP PHONE? WHAT IF A CUSTOMERS PHONE QUIT WORKING OR CELLULAR PROVIDER GOES DOWN. WHAT ABOUT THE ELDERLY? WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE DEBIT CARDS? WHAT ABOUT PEOPLE WHO PAY CASH? (CASH HAS NO ADDED FEES TO BUISNESS LIKE DEBIT AND CREDIT CARDS DO) I DO NOT HAVE A DEBIT CARD- THOSE ARE HACKED EVERYDAY. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN WALMART. MANAGEMENT REALLY NEEDS TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS AND SEE HOW MANY VALUABLE CUSTOMERS THEY HAVE INSULTED.

The new Savings Catcher policy really does discriminate against people who do not have a smart phone. I have used the program since it started and now I am just out of luck. I am honestly just not a telephone person and can't see spending a lot of money for the phone and data plan for some thing I would not use much. I regularly spent a lot of money at Walmart, but since this change I am buying less and dividing my shopping between Walmart and another store. Perhaps our solution should be to use dozens of coupons at each trip to tie up the checkers and slow down their lines.

I'm a software developer by trade, hardly someone who should be intimidated by this new process, and yet when I went to pay the process was anything but easy. Fumble, read, fumble more, read and BAM it took funds from the wrong account. Yeesh. I hate it.

Also, there is NO WAY TO ADD a receipt to the SAVINGS CATCHERif you were in a rush to get out of the way of others while fumbling to pay and forgot to press that button. Yes, Walmart's video claims you can add any missed via the dashboard, but my purchase is not there. I'm out about $4 in savings.

Let's not get started about how my elderly PARENTS who still have FLIP PHONES and can barely manage those will get the savings. (Hint: They won't and they need every penny.)

Walmart, you have lost me as a loyal customer, betting my parents too.

I guess walmart was sick of price matching for the savings catcher program therefore the big wigs decided to make it inconvenient to submit the receipts at all. I have health issues and my sister assist me with groceries. I give her the funds and she gets them from the store. Therefore I can no longer submit my purchases using my paper receipt. This change has to be dumbest idea as it will cause congestion in the store with folks attempting to use their phones at the registers. What happens if an individual's phone stops working in the store or if there is a glitch with walmart's system and receipts cannot be submitted? Anything could happen.
I normally would utilize the savings to order items online. Well I won't ordering from walmart.com anymore. Sadly all these customer complaints will fall on dead ears. Walmart truly needs to go out of business for good.

I haven't been using savings catcher long, but I liked it....UNTIL it was changed. If your in a hurry at check out or forget to open and use the app..you are out of luck! There's now NO way to enter your receipts! And when i did do it correctly yesterday, it was a hassle and took forever! Customers behind me were getting upset too! I DO NOT care for the app updates!

I absolutely hate the new saving catcher rules. I've always considered Walmart policies and procedures to be fair and impartial but now they are discriminating against public that does not own a smartphone or individuals that don't feel safe entering their credit card information on a computer site. Remember Walmart you are who you are because of the people that shop there but keep in mind now you have other competitors that have better prices than you. I have a feeling that there will be a lawsuit coming up your way for discriminating against certain customers. With the way you're going You're making Walmart great again.

WORST IDEA ANYONE AT WALMART EVER HAD ! I GUESS WALMART WANTS FOLKS TO GO ELSEWHERE. I LOADED APP & TRIED TO SCAN RECEIPT I ALREADY HAD . NO WAY TO DO THAT IN APP.
DO YOU SERIOUSLY EXPECT EVERYONE TO GO THRU OPENING APP IN STORE, SCANNING AT THAT TIME IN ORDER TO GET RECEIPT IN SYSTEM ???? EVIDENTLY YOU HAVE NEVER STOOD IN THE WALMART CHECK OUT LINE. IT IS ALREADY THE SLOWEST LINE IN TOWN.

ONE CUSTOMER WHO HAS QUIT WALMART

DISCRIMINATION!!! Simply and in plain sight... Walmart's new Savings Catcher Program and the exclusive use with Walmart Pay are discriminatory. Walmart is discriminating against the elderly, financial conservatives, and poor people. If you do not have a smart phone or cannot afford one, then you cannot participate in the program. If you are a low-income family and receives Food Stamps via an EBT card, then you cannot participate in the program. This is obvious unapologetic discrimination by Walmart.

I hope clearer heads prevail and this disgusting policy is terminated. If not, sign me up for the foreseeable Class-Action Lawsuit!!!

Former Loyal Customer!

I faithfully submit my receipts to savings catcher every week. Fisrt on my desk top. Then uou had to change and make it hard for us to print out our gift cards. Then more changes the walmart app for smart phones. So i got a smart phone so i could play along and scan my re eipts.then my money got stolen from my account. Now we cant scan our paper receipts anymore. Why? Why is it necessary that we ALL have to have E-receipts.I need paper receipts for my rebate apps. Why doea walmart always have to duck up everything.

Having been a satisfied member of Walmart Savings Catcher for a long time and being very satisfied with how convenient it was, But I hate the New Policy that started in October for several reasons. To start off, you have to have a Smart Phone and use Walmart Pay. I have a Smart phone but I don't want to use Walmart Pay. For budget reasons We like to pay cash. The Checkers are not use to the policy either. Yesterday I bought $150 and was telling the checker to wait til I scanned the bar code and the code was gone before I had a chance to scan. So the receipt was not able to be submitted. I usually spend about 150-200 a week in Walmart and I go there mainly because of the savings catcher program. I never really saved a lot because I bought quite a few Walmart brand items but it was something. I also hate is that I can not save the savings catcher refunds up like in the past. Now as soon as I scan it it takes the money off the savings catcher gift card in Walmart pay. Walmart is claiming that the changes are to make it better but I think it is making it horrible and inconvenient. I will be doing more shopping at other stores and get my saving on sell items.

Savings Catcher scanner is not on the app please fix this!!!!

Could you make the savings catcher any more difficult to use ?? If your goal was to discourage people to use it then you certainly have succeeded. Nobody wants to go through this much trouble. You have turned a great thing into something terrible. What about the people who do not have or cannot afford a smart phone? What about the people who do not want to use or trust smart pay Why can you not just go back to if it’s on sale in a flyer you automatically get the discount at the register? How much simpler, easy,fair to everybody can it get. I hope you listen to your customers and fix this. After all if it was not for us then wal mart would not exist!

I have used Walmart savings catcher since it started. I hate the new way. It’s very inconvenient. I went to pay with Walmart pay and for some crazy odd reason my phone kept throwing an error message therefore I paid with cash. Now I can’t submit the receipt. I think you guys really need to rethink this and all the bugs that will come along with it. It’s discriminatory against people who use cash and don’t have smartphones. Everyone doesn’t like changes so they stick with what they know. Ex: my grandmother uses cash and my father does not like smartphones. Mainly because he is dyslexic. Now, Walmart, you really need to think about these issues and how it Affects certain people.

I have used Walmart Savings Catcher every since it started.I hate the new savings catcher rules.I do not shop with credit cards or debit,I pay with cash only.I shop at Walmart mainly because of the savings catcher,everyone I talked to hates it also.I will be shopping elsewhere.
