In May a young man came to my door asking for one hour of my time to perform a Rainbow Vacuum demonstration. As a reward, I would receive complimentary pizza and a movie for my entire family! The man stayed for over four hours, bringing in his "manager" when I told him I wasn't interested. After I told them to leave my home they left the rebate form but no other printed materials or I would be reporting them as well. The rebate is from Promo Designs which according to my online research is located at
3433 Lithia Pinecrest Rd #356
Valrico Florida 33594-6302
United States of America
Phone: 618-355-1507
After carefully following the many steps outlined in the provided brochure, I then sent the required ORIGINAL receipts and ORIGINAL rebate form and was told to wait four to six weeks for the rebate to arrive. Several months later, I called the number listed above (which is a recording) and left specific information and requested that they contact me personally if there was a problem. Every few months I have continued to call, leaving information on both the pizza and a movie promo line and their "executive office" line.
Since this is so obviously a scam and I am upset with both Rainbow and this Promo Service I attempted to make things right by contacting the Better Business Bureau of West Florida. After a lot of online and paper communication, Promo Designs responded by saying "we don't have anything listed under (name) at this address". And BBB considered the issue resolved. What a joke!
