My experience with rebates is that I NEVER forget to send in the form, and whatever is required. I always take careful photo copies of everything as it is prepared.
No matter how carefully I go through the process, even reputable companies only pay out about 50-60% of the time.
I have noticed that, based on the mail-in addresses, most companies seem to use the same one or two rebate processors, and I suspect there is often a rip-off of both the manufacturer and the customer happening at the processor.
Bat rays? We don't need no stinking bat rays!
