My favorite media searching app
I have been using this app for years to find books and other media for school use and personal consumption. This app scans the most popular online book sales sites, such as Alibris, Amazon, AbeBooks (owned by Amazon), Chegg, eCampus, BiggerBooks, etc.
So far so good :)
Overall DealOz does what they say , the price-comparing feature in itself is extremely accurate & helpful to cut time ravaging through multiple sites for the same book . Plus you get some extra cash-back for shopping at the lowest price (which you otherwise wouldn’t have gotten a penny back for).
Free money back on something you’d have to buy either way , sounds good enough to me & will definitely add up over time (perfect for course textbooks) .
However I have noticed that some of the smaller cash-back offers only appear on their site . But it’s not that big of a deal to use Safari for purchasing (which I actually prefer to ordering in an app browser) & come back to the app to track & claim cash-back & get help through the contact option (to which their team responds quite quickly ! )
Do note that the cash-back will take 30-60 days from the shipment date to be available to be requested as a check , just add a reminder to your calendar & you’re good to go .

Great App for Searching & Saving Money
I have always liked Dealoz.com. I always find the best deals on books including finding different editions of the same book that can help to save money too.
Dandy Until 403 Forbidden.
Am trying to contact DealOz. I like using the site and app. I have used the site for close to a year. I still get emails from them regarding price searches.
Last week I was flagged cause of automated queries. I don’t even know how that’s done. This week I get a Forbidden 403 error.
I can’t load the support page, any page.

Sow process
I purchased books using one of their coupons in the app and it took a month before I was able to request the money to be refunded to me. They then require you to request a check sent to your home address to get the money. Now that request is being processed and delayed again. Just a heads up, don’t expect to get your money back in a quick turn around. It will take over a month and a half I expect before I am finally paid for using their own coupons. I will be deleting the app after I finally get my money, not worth the time or hastle.
