If you would have called HP awards center they would have told you that the rebate would not be honored. I posted this fact in this thread

I recieved my $12 MIR on Compusa brand 50pack 16x 80min cd-rs at Compusa from 11/20. Rebate was sent to New Rochelle.

Free is GOOD!!

Anyone get their Best Buy D-link DI-794 router $20 rebate? I called the best buy rebate center and they told me it was invalid. Then he put me on hold and said it was because I sent two rebates in for it and it was only valid for one. Said they sent out a letter saying it was invalid in mid-december. Never received. Then he said the check was sent out for the one that was valid in mid-december. Never received. Now he is escalating it to the check issuing department to see if the check was cashed. If not they will reissue it. What do I do if they say it was cashed? It is one of those stupid postcard checks that have steal me written all over it.

Also Staples said I sent in two Veo Stingray webcam rebates, when I only sent in one. Why does this happen? Do they reenter it by accident or are they entering someone elses rebates as mine? Got the staples invalid letter and my check though.

Got my $12 for CompUSA CDRs (50 pack, goldish print) from the 11/18/01 sale. (TCA Rebate)

Heads up on the FujiFilm/Circuit City Rebates; the deal was a $5 rebate from Fuji and a $10 rebate from CC; the cost for the 50 pack spindle was 14.99.

Fuji is excellent on their rebates; registered on line, mailed on 1-08 and received the rebate at the end of January.

Checked the Circuit City rebate website and nothing registered after 36 days; called the 888 number on the receipt and they stated that they have no record of the rebate. They take my name, receipt number, Program number, address, date of purchase, FCP number, and tell me that it will be another 6-10 weeks to process the check. They had no record and said that the website (www.circuitcityrebates.com) isn't used by them

What a scam; if you don't call in to check on your rebate, you don't get it into the system. Almost makes no sense in sending in CC rebates.

just got my $50 from the circuit city tdk fiasco, still waiting on the $20x3 for the rest of the rebates on this

 

[stoner87]

Just got:
Circuit City - $50 for Palm m100

<< Just got: *SNIP* Sam's Club - $100 for 100GB HD >>



Good to see that people are still receiving these, it gives me some hope (I still haven't received mine). I sent off an email to them asking about it today, I'm starting to get worried.

I called the rebate tracking number for the BB/Crucial rebate for the second time regarding my $8 check, which should be a $10 check. Now they're saying they'll email me within 24 hours. Here's hoping.

This just came to my email:

Thank you for participating in the following rebate offer:

Maxtor 20GB 7200 Hard Drive $40

Personal Reference Number: xxxxxxxx

You are receiving this notification because you failed to comply with the terms of the offer, or you have not provided complete or correct information:

How the hell are they trying to 'validate' it that they cant?? WTF!

 

[BobF]

Let me guess. Is this is for the Office Depot rebate being handled by The Express Group? Those folks seem a bit disorganized.

Just checked with wheresmyrebates.com for 2 Black Friday rebates status from CompUSA-

$20 Bestdata modem rebate approved

$20 EPO 52X CD ROM - not in their system!!! Now they want me to fax in the info. No problem, I kept copies of everything, except, I did not copy the front of their rebate submission form. They want the rebate program number from the front.

Anyone who submitted this rebate, please PM me or post the rebate program number for the EPO 52X CDROM. Better yet - a scan of the front of the rebate slip.

Thanks in advance to everyone!



Anyone have the COMPUSA Black Friday EPO 52X CDROM Program # from the front of the rebate????????? Please post or PM.

Anybody recieve or have info on the $20 rebate from Office Max 100 pack of Hi-Val cd-rs 16x/74 min-promo #1394 that was good from 10/7-10/13?????

The rebate center processing this is Iomagic, and doesn't have any automated or web status checking method.

Received teh circuitcity Apc 19.99 and Maxell 9.99 rebates yesterday.

 

[Lark888]

Received both of the Motorala Surfboard Modem rebates from Comcast and Circuit City. Each was for $100 (Modem with QuickConnect kit was $199 + tax) and I was worried that only one would be honored. Both did arrive after about 10 weeks.

 

[wakeboarder]

Got the following circuit city rebates today:

MOS ICON100HBLK - $29.99 - Laptop bag, works good for my PS2

MOS HKCV100BLK - $19.99 - Camera Bag (got 2 of them)
MAX LR620MP - $9.99 - Maxell AA batteries
APC PER7T/PER7 - $19.99 - APC Surge Protector

Circuit City sure mangles your name, 3 of the 6 rebates had my last name spelled wrong. One had 3 letters wrong.

Got turned down by Paragas for the $40 OfficeMax 24X Cendyne CDRW as follows:
Rebate: $20.00 Rebate Check.
Promotion: $20 Mail in Rebate on CenDyne Internal CDRW (Office Max only)
Submission Type: MAIL
Date Received: 02/12/2002
Status: Invalid
Status Detail: We apologize for the misunderstanding, but your rebate is invalid because the product was not purchased within the dates specified by this promotion A postcard acknowledging your invalid reason will be mailed to you.

They screwed this up because the $20 rebate was last month's and mine clearly stated $40 and was bought this month with this month's rebate form... Resubmitting we go... Oh Joy...

 

[uwannawhat]

Got denied on the $50 Intel Pocket Concert Kit rebate. :disgust:

I sent in the upc/barcode from the bottom of the box about .5"x4" strip. They wanted I assume the clear tab that holds the end together supossedly it has very tiny words printed on it "Proof of Purchase". wtf?

I have an overdue rebate from Office Depot (30GB Maxtor for $30). Where do I call for information? I tried the number on the rebate, but the number was disconnected :|

 

[Gog]

Most of you guys seem to have received your rebate for the MS Intellimouse Optical Rebate from Staples.

I haven't received this rebate and I was wondering is this because I got the newer one (the one with the improved dpi)? What should I do to find out, call MS???

Lukfilm:
I have the same rebate from OD from the end of Oct. I called Walled Lake from the link on this thread's first page.
Express Group

There's a phone number on the front page of the link, 1-800-962-4664.
When you enter your name and zip there's a second number : 1-800-738-9201

I called last Friday to complain (first # I think), and they said my 30.00 rebate was scheduled to be mailed on 2-15-02. We'll see. Hope that helps.
