Mail-in-Rebates or Cash back offers are very enticing yet very frustrating.
- Read offer very carefully. Pay special attention to item/product number and make sure you are buying right product. Often time, manufacturer has same products with two different UPC/product code, you should buy product with code exactly same as described in Mail-in-Rebate(MIR) form.
- Pay attention to required purchase date and required submission date.
- Fill out MIR form in legible manner, print all optional information too.
- Make copy all of receipts, UPC code, rebate form.
- Send the MIR very next day. You don’t want to miss submission date.
- If Rebate Processor is offering on-line rebate status check, always check the status of rebate 4 weeks after you have posted MIR. You can use Auto Submit on this site.
- Call rebate processor if status is not valid or does not show up even after 6 weeks, resubmit missing information using copy you have made earlier.
- Check MIR status regularly, don’t hesitate to call rebate processor, its your money and you deserve it back.
