Bought 3000. worth of merchandise from best buy at Christmas. Was talked into buying a bundled package e machine due to 300.00 in rebates, Best Buy is claiming the rebate for 150.00 was mailed and cashed Feb10. But states thay can't prove it to me. I never received it nor cashed it. I want to file a police report and a report at my post office. However I find it hard to believe after all these claims it was ever sent out. I think they saw where they pd me another rebate the month before for 150.00 on a Toshiba laptop. and just are refusing to pay again. I don't plan to give up. There needs to be a class action lawsuit filed against best buy for these under handed practices.

I have purchased Sony VAIO Laptop on August 1st, 2005 and was supposed to receive SONY 100 and BestBuy 150 rebate. Neither one of them arrived in timely manner so, I called SONY and BESTBUY again - and I kept calling in the last 6-7 months to get my money; so, i finally got my SONY rebate (100) but BestBuy was still trying to avoid giving money back.

I called them first time and they said they going to re-issue the check and send it again to my address. Ok - I was waiting for about 4 weeks, and nothing happend. I called again to see what's going on - and they said check got cashed on September 16th. 6th week from the purchase day. 4 weeks ago customer rep. told me check is mailed but not cashed - and now they are saying check is cashed on Septemeber 16th, 2005. Someone is definetely trying to get out of this giving money to me and that`s BestBuy!

I bought a computer Compaq SR1620NX and was supposed to get a 50.00 rebate, Isent in everything that was ask for, about 3 months later I got an e-mail that they were missing the bar code from the box, I explained that I had cut out and sent in the bar code with the rebate form. The person on the phone said she checked it and it was alright and they would send out the rebate. It's been about 3 months again and still nothing.

I purchased an Emachines 17inch computer monitor. It had been on display and was sold as new. The sales girl gave me the form to send to the manufacturer for a 50.00 rebate. The reason I bought the monitor was because of the rebate I was assured I would get. When I tried to get the rebate the manufacturer need the label with the bar code from the box. I did not get a box but the sales girl told me that she wrote it on the receipt and that was good enough. When I was refused the rebate I went to the store to see what could be done the manager said no rebate.
