NO!

We apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, your company is not currently eligible for the Employee Purchase Program pursuant to the Official Rules, which limits eligibility to ?employees of AMD Solution Provider members at the gold or platinum level companies." You are registered as an associate member.



Although you may have received an order confirmation, it has now been canceled and your credit card will not be charged.



The official rules have been posted on the Market Builder website since the promotion was launched. The rules are a legally binding document whether or not they are read. The official rules state that only gold and platinum members are eligible.



Please click here for the official rules:

:brokenheart:

What's this? Did you order using Cherrybomb's link or something? Otherwise, this is old news.

 

[MrCoyote]

So you tried it, huh? Or you getting that info from your previous order?

 

[uwannawhat]

2nd order & still NO GO!

she's deader than a door nail (where did that phrase come from anyway?)

 

[MrCoyote]

He's dead Jim!

Anybody else having problems with the company they have doing the rebates? I emailed for a status on my rebate because they never emailed me to confirm they received the rebate (like it says they will do on the rebate form) and it took them 5 days to respond. Then their response was entirely wrong, it called my by a different name then didn't answer my question at all. I tried to reply and got sent a form letter that they don't accept email replys and to write to status@onrebate.com all over again. I emailed them again and got a 2nd nonsensical reply to resubmit the rebate and wait an hour for a confirmation code (which makes no sense because there is no physical way for them to get a rebate an hour after I mail it; which is exactly what they said). Looks like this rebate company has no intention to pay any of us, even those that are eligible.

 

[imported_jammer]

thats just wrong.
is anyone else having the same problem as Ualayan?

 

[Zebo]

Would you assholes stop bumping this dead deal?

 

[imported_jammer]

So are you saying that you have an order that's being shipped out? Otherwise I believe that this is indeed dead. Anyone who got the link should think twice before using it. Can't we let this thread die and just create another one to track the rebates and use the existing threads for talk about setting up the system for those that got in......

I've had to deal with the same situation as you. These tards better get their act together!

i wish they'd hurry up and send me a cancellation email or mark my order as cancelled so i can stop checking the status every hour.

remaining unrealistically hopeful...

 

[Childs]

Ditto. I know the cancellation is coming, but I'm dreading it just the same.

 

[phenderson]

After a couple of calls to my bank... for verification on Tiger direct's behalf, the LAdy assured me that it was going through... and that it would ship today...

So the deal still works and I ordered next day shipping...
So I should be getting mine in a day or so...
YEAHHHHHH BABY

Wowzer! Just noticed that. Anyone mind sharing the linkw pls?

 

[DJFuji]

You just noticed that, and yet you continue to ask for the link? Get lost.

e-mail I received from AMD

In our previous communication with you, we included a link to the AMD Solution Provider Overview which explains the different levels of membership in the AMD Solution Provider Program. What transpired was that the promotion site was compromised from an outside source, allowing anyone to by-pass the code that checked for the member level status and access the promotion. The security breach was rectified as soon as possible, but many orders were placed in the very short time that the breach was active. These orders were cancelled in accordance with eligibility as defined by the official rules. Unfortunately, AMD is not involved in the ordering, packaging, or shipping of the promotion product, and we were unable to cancel all of the illegitimate orders before some shipped.

If you would like proof that the site was compromised, please refer to the www.anandtech.com forum below:

http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=40&threadid=1347020&highlight_key=y&keyword1=AMD

The official rules of the promotion state the following:

?AMD reserves the right to cancel or modify the Promotion if fraud, technical failures, or any other factor beyond AMD?s reasonable control impairs the integrity of the Promotion as determined by AMD in its sole discretion. All federal, state, provincial and local laws and regulations apply.?

?AMD is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, illegible or misdirected entries, which will be disqualified or for any error, human, technical or otherwise. AMD is not responsible for failed, partial or garbled computer transmissions; for technical failures of any kind, including, but not limited to electronic malfunctioning of any network, hardware or software; or for any error, human, technical or otherwise. AMD reserves the right in its sole discretion to disqualify any individual it finds to be tampering with the operation of the Promotion or to be acting in violation of these Official Rules.?

As we stated previously, the official rules are a legally binding document. When a company holds a promotion there are state and federal laws controlling the promotion. Making any exceptions to those laws can put the company holding the promotion and the promotion participants in jeopardy. Therefore, once the rules are written they must be strictly adhered to.

We know that your company is not a gold or platinum member because we keep a database of all AMD Solution Provider members, which includes their member status. Your company is listed as an associate member.

We understand your position and we apologize for the frustration. It has been quite frustrating for us as well.

Best regards,

AMD Solution Provider Team

Wow. I'm so glad you joined this forum in June. You can read but not comprehend. Do you want a vacation? Anyone passing the link around can get the same treatment. You want them to put it on the line for you? Who the heck are you? Mods can read PM's you realize....

I take back the nonsensical sh** I wrote. I didn't realize the severity of the situation. I, like alot of others really wanted in on this. Now that one of the fellow AT'ers recieved a letter from AMD, it proves the stance the mods had to take. Anyone with me on the official locking of this thread?

 

[imported_jammer]

what case r u guys getting for this deal? i got myself an Antec p160 for 101 shipping included!! good deal considering newegg sells it for 117

 

[Jagercola]

I got a P160 and it's pretty sweet. Get a sunbeam fan controller from svc or somewhere and it has blue leds that match.

 

[Trikat]

Heh, i'm looking for the P160 deal now. There was some great deals in the past which I should've jumped on, but didn't know there would be an AMD combo deal in the near future.
