Tiger Direct / adata.4myrebate.com Rebate fulfillment company lies about documentation received not being valid to avoid paying Internet
I purchased several computer components from TigerDirect.com, one of which was 4gb of Adata RAM which was to have a $20.00 rebate. I completed the forms, attached the printed web receipt I received from TigerDirect and the original barcode label from the memory packaging as required. Everything was mailed in on 3/11/15. It has been a few weeks, so I just went on to the rebate site to check the status. This is what it says: 3/20/2015 9:27:32 AM Documentation Received. Below that; 3/21/2015 5:05:27 AM "Declined" Illegible Documentation - CLEAR copy of Receipt/Invoice or Packing List is missing or illegible. How much more clear could it be?
Moral of the story - DO NOT buy anything from TigerDirect that is price driven by a rebate - you will not receive it.
When I figure in the additional cost of the rebate that I didn't receive, I could have purchased comparable memory locally for $10 less.

TigerDirect DOES NOT handle the rebates. TD is ONLY doing what the VENDOR of the item wants. ALL rebates are handled by a third party company to keep ANY fraud to a minimum. I tell you this so YOU have understanding. Understand that THIS IS THIER JOB!!! THEY do this 8+ hours a day!! So if THEY said they couldn't read it, then THEY couldn't read it. There is probably information that THEY NEED to process YOUR rebate that is difficult for THEM to read or its missing. Either way, its NOT a ripoff when the paperwork YOU are supposed to submit cant be used. HOW does this make THEM the bad guys?? Its NOT magic....so the ONLY issue is that YOU submitted paperwork THEY couldn't use. THAT is NOT on THEM!!!!!! THAT is on YOU!!!! When are people such as yourself going to grow the hell up and ACT LIKE AN ADULT!!!!! YOU are so quick to put ALL of the blame on SOMEONE ELSE!!! Instead of being an adult about it and ADMITTING that YOU may have screwed up. Tell us ALL when it was that YOU obtained ABSOLUTE PERFECTION?
