Canon rebate on selected printers when purchased with a notebook computer. Rebates go through Continental Promotion Group in Tempe, Arizona which is also found on the web as www.rebatestatus.com.
Received e-mail confirmation on 7-13 that rebates totaling $90 had been processed and mailed. Was told to expect a delay of 30 days for mail from Arizona to southern California!
Received checks on 11-3. Checks had a date of 6-13 and a void date of 9-11. Yes I received the checks almost two months after the void date!
Their e-mails do not state that the checks have a void date. Had their e-mails so stated I surely would have been on top of this. This is an obvious intentional delay by CPG to avoid paying. Or an unintentional problem with their check production and mailing. I think it's the former.
I find in searching here and across the web that there are many who have experienced rebate fraud when CPG is involved in the process. I question any denial by the major companies such as Canon that uses CPG as a rebate services provider. I have filed with the local BBB in Tempe, the Arizona Attorney General and the FTC.
This growing problem with rebate services needs federal investigation and federal laws.
