Dell's Hidden Mail-in Rebate?
 
I ordered a Dell laptop recently - it just arrived the other day & was supposed to come with a $100 mail-in rebate, however there was no rebate enclosed. WTF? Am I supposed to go somewhere on their website to get a rebate form? It seems they are really going way out of their way to make sure no one actually uses the mail-in rebate - 'because there is NOTHING about it in the packaging I received. :BangBang:

yeah! musta been buried deep in their terms that you needed to live in a certain zipcode to qualify!

fuckin assholes.

seriously though. you should call the sales support hotline, dell has great support and they'll probably be able to tell you how to get the rebate real fast.

in fact, lots of companies provide great support, including the one in my sig :)

I didn't order online - I talked to a rep & ordered on the phone. They're closed now - guess I'll find out what the deal is in the morning.

you can get one from their site.

or you can also call them up and bitch, and i they should find someone to fax you or mail you one.


oops, now they outsourced everything to india..guess you're fucked

go to the site.. look for the base model of what you ordered, and click the rebate link.

LOL, yea, I know, the first guy I talked to, I couldn't understand half of what he was saying. So I just hung up on him :1orglaugh& called back. Then I got a Texan on the line - at least he fucking spoke English & was helpful. He looked up my profile & the Indian guy had put me in their system as - I swear to god -

FURRY LAID.

My name is Corey Wade. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Same problem here, just got my new desktop ... they do everything they can to make you forget they offered a rebate and if you DO remember they make it hard to figure out what to do.

The website and tech lines will clear everything up though.
:2 cents:

Rebate

Dell rebates. It should be on the packing slip how much you are getting back, if not, call your sales rep and they can tell you.

actually right after you order it online it tells you what to do. at least the desktop I bought did.
