Perhaps if a bunch of folks that had not recieved their rebates got together in front of a BP store and called a news conference to draw attention to the way this rebate is being handled someone would have to start fixing the problem. Just my![]()
Smooth move Jimmy. ROFL. Maybe after you posted about your bad experience on every site you belong to, they snuck it into your house and hid it in your pile of bills.

I don't see any problem. It says right on the rebate form it could take 8-10 weeks to receive it.

Glad you found it. I received mine for the HDS-8 bundle in the time window stated.
Got mine yesterday, I had sent it in on 4/3/14.
I sent mine in for the HDS 8 certified, return receipt. I don't always trust the rebate programs completely.
to track you rebate you need to go to rebatepromotions.com | A quick and easy way to check on your rebates., enter on the number of your street address, not the name of the street, your last name and zip code and offer # 30073.
Just talked with them and mine was approved 2 weeks after i sent in, still will take another 8 weeks to get it.
Ok this is what I figure what happens once you rebate is approved. Its going to take 8 weeks for you to get it. The company is going to place your money along with the money of others in to a Savings account set up to process rebates. Now deduct say 6 days for the printing of your check getting it in the mail and your recieving it. So now the money was in this account for 50 days times the numberof rebates process. It isn't hard to see that they make money off of holding your rebate as long as posssible.

On the 13th mine will have been "approved " for 2 months
That's exactly what happens. If you look hard you will find that most of these companies use the same clearing house in Arizona to process rebates. Stren and several others use the same one. With interest rates as low as they are they have to hold the money as long as possible to make any profit. Figure they are collecting thousands of rebates a month and turning the money every 3 months.
