Rebate ripoff & Wash DC Attorney General Lawsuit

Bought my cell over a year ago, no $100 rebate. Told I qualified for payment about 4 months ago. Then, they switched rebate houses from AZ to MN. See http://www.wireflyrebates.com/rebatestatement.html. The phone number at the new house in MN (as of 9/7/06) is same as one used by Fry's Electronics, so may be a positive change. Maybe.

Latest promise is that the check is being printed, wait 2-3 weeks. Phone number to call is 866-607-9877 or go to www.cellphonerebates.com.

DC Attny General filed lawsuit on behalf of all consumers - over 2000 complaints so far. See http://occ. Dc. Gov/occ/cwp/view, a, 11, q, 636576, occNav_GID, 1521.Asp
