DeMilitarized Zone - what a load of crap! the rebate fulfillment houses -guarantee-manufacturers only x% of people will claim them or they'll eat the extra --that's why they're ubiquituous in the consumer electronics market and whythe rebate houses seem to 'lose' or disqualify so many of them.i even photocopy the stamped envelope i mail the materials in so they cannotclaim i put the wrong address on or had inadequate postage. I also houndthem by calling and documenting everything -- names, times i called, etc..Then when they try to screw you, write to either your state's attorneygeneral or office of consumer affairs, whoever handles this stuff in yourstate, and copy the CEOs of the companies involved. It works. They do notwant that sort of attention. My father has gotten long-missing rebatesafter contacting his state's AG, and I just had luck in my state afterBellSouth kept falsely denying my claims. I suddenly got my checks.read this for info on how they pitch themselves to manufacturers:http://www.gripe2ed.com/scoop/story/2004/4/29/8438/35808 According to Claire Rosenzweig, president of the Promotion Marketing Association in New York City, companies offer rebates because people like them. "They're extremely popular with consumers," she said. "People enjoy getting money back on these products. It makes it more fun. It makes it more interesting."
