--- Quote from: menace on March 23, 2005, 02:34:07 pm ---[rant]So I bought a d-link router from best buy in december and dutifully filled out the rebate forms and sent them off. Now 12 weeks later their website shows my order as being received and processed. So being thoroughly pi$$ed i called them and sent them an email to express my disgust. Now here it is 24 hrs later, no return calls or retrun emails and low and behold my check has been mailed
I'm willing to bet serious money that those slimy ---daisies--- sit on the checks and only mail the ones where people complain--there should be a law against these jerk-offs. [/rant]

Let me guess... Future Shop?

I usually have to call to get a rebate check and they usually give the same story...it will be mailed in a few days...
Rarely do I buy something due to a rebate without making sure there is a 1-800 number to check on the status.

I sent in a rebate on january 13th...they said 6-8 weeks from the 28th, so Im not worried yet. Although last time, I do remember I needed the 100 bucks and they said I forgot a UPC code when I friggin made sure it was in there...I think theres trolls at the postal office!

Me bad.. Best Buy owns Future Shop in Canada. And Future Shop rebates suck.
