WHY MAIL IN REBATE?

You may have asked yourself why do stores want to give you money back in mail in rebate? Why dont they give you the money right there?
You are not alone. Many people have the same questions as you do. I am going to explain you what happens with those mail in rebate.

OK, you go to a online, or other kind of stores and they say, for example, "this PC is $699, after $200 mail in rebate." What comes to your mind is that the PC cost only "$699." After you get home with your new PC, you may forget about the mail in rebate, or you maybe just don't want to fill out all those paper. That is what stores want. They want you no to fill out the Mail in Rebate application.

Even in you fill it out, they try to make it hard for you. That is why they almost always use third parties too be in charge of receiving and informing you about the Mail in Rebates.

What should you do? When you send the application of you Mail in Rebate, always make a copy of that document and keep it in your files. So, when they answer to you saying that you had some errors in your application when you really didn't, you just send an application again with the copy you made before.

Don't give up. As many time as they ask you to fill it again, you just do it. And again, and again, and again..... until they say "OK, lets send the money to the customer" and the customer is nobody else but you. Money is money.

Remember! Always make copy when you fill your Mail in Rebate application. That is the one way you can prove that you did things in the correct way.
