Hello

Anyone here have any experiences with Dell's rebates. Mine has been sitting
in Processing for the past 3 1/2 months. I send them emails and they say it
shows as Processing. Nothing more. I know its in Processing... it shows on
their website. They are real helpful about it.

Just wondering when others are getting theirs.

Thanks
Greg Ho

Similar experiences. Over three months and several dozen emails and phone
calls; perseverance won out over incompetence and I finally got it.

I had a similar experience. Mailed my rebate on Mar 25, never showed up
on their website even in late May. Called them up, faxed copies, sat in
processing for 3 weeks, and finally got it on June 25. Keep at it, let
them not forget you.

i have not had to ever wait over eight weeks for a rebate (which is what
they promise). the best way to follow up is by posting a message to the
dell talk fourms in the 'mail in rebate' board found here...

I've applied for seven Dell rebates. The longest took 7 weeks, the shortest
2. None required any follow up.

Clearly they have occasional problems, but considering they process
millions, the problems are small.

There is a specific forum on Dell's community site where you can ask for
help. My understanding is that their response is within 24 hours.

I just sent them another email after it being a month since the last one I
sent. If they tell me the same story I will complain on the boards.

Thanks a lot to everyone

I think all Dell rebates are being processed in India.

My last Dell rebate came in four weeks. Don't procrastinate. Call Dell now.

I would call (sales NOT support) and explain the problem.
My rebates (two systems) took about 3 weeks from the day I mailed them to
get the check.

What a pain. Called them up this morning. They said I was missing an item
when I followed and sent in everything they asked for. Now they are asking
for something else.
Hopefully this is the end.

I signed up through Dell to get Verizon DSL. They needed a copy of a billing
statement that I actually paid for the services...or that I was charged.
They didnt tell me that ever.

Chris,

I didn't take it as racist. Just stoopid. If the poster were being racist,
I would've expected some stereotypical comment about Indians or some slurs.

But you didn't ask me, so I'll butt out.

Tony is probably referring to the Dell Community Forums on Dell's web site.
These are an excellent resource for help with all things Dell, from rebate
problems to technical questions. And because the DCF is moderated you can
get the attention of Dell employees.
