Office Depot Rebate Center
can suck it, honestly
I bought a laptop for my sister (she was paying for it, i just found the deal and was dealing with rebates, thats fine)
So i make copies of all the rebates, and everything else
sending in the originals
well, a few weeks later i check on their rebate center website and see that one of them was denied
then I realized that they entered the same rebate twice (the offer numbers were only 1 digit different)
so, of course only one of them is going to go through
I call them, they tell me to resubmit it to a different place, with different, preapproved numbers on it, so i do.
i check the rebate website later, and now it says that they got the new one, and that it has been denied because i sent it in after the cut-off date
WELL OF COURSE I DID, YOU TOLD ME TO!
so i called again just now, waited on hold the whole time, all the while i have to pee really bad.
finally i get someone, she says she is going to make a note that it was my second submission, and that the approval office people were going to look @ it again with the new note on it, and that it can take 10 days, so im like, okay, whatever, thank you kind african woman i was talking to
and now i can go piss
