Just thought I’d throw this up here.
I bought a monitor from PC Connection back in October that came with a $100 rebate. Their rebate partner is RebatesHQ, aka Parago. Today I received by second email from customer service after inquiring about the status of my rebate. At all costs, do not count on rebates from them. I spoke with PC Connection, and they are aware of the problem. In fact, they’ve been authorized to credit your credit card for the rebates if you haven’t received it after 14 weeks.
Look at this thread. Sad.

When I log in, it still only says "Status Detail: Your rebate is valid and is scheduled for final processing." This is getting seriously out of hand.

I had the EXACT same thing happen with them Same e-mails, ets. I called on the phone. 1 lie after another. This has been going on since September and still no rebate I even asked for a manager and thrreatened them with the Attorney General’s office. They could care less. It’s just a big scam operation
Hi, I can’t even seem to talk to them in person. Do you have the phone number??? I called that 888-221-4692 number but I can’t talk to any real people.
They’re claiming I didn’t send documents… I’m so angry
