Has any one heard from BFG and Casio on what they going to do?

I send them e-mail using web, but have not heard anything from them

Just got this in the e-mail:

Dear Valued BFG Technologies Customer,

One of our third-party rebate processing companies recently informed us
that they are experiencing financial difficulties, and that the funds
provided to them by BFG Technologies to pay rebate checks for certain
BFG products were no longer available.

We are happy to inform our rebate customers in the U.S. that BFG has
corrected the situation, and you CAN cash your check to receive your
rebate payment. This applies to all rebate checks for BFG Technologies.
For Canadian customers, please hold on to your check and do not attempt
to cash it. We are actively working on a solution for you and will
update this message or contact you directly before the end of this week.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

BFG Technologies, Inc.

Good news regarding my Kensington rebates, they are now being handled by Parago. I received emails from them advising that three are approved, still need confirmation on the fourth.

netsonic said:Samsung SUCKS!!!After researching them for Plasma TV and computer hard drives, I found that seems to be correct. They have virtually no post-sale support no matter what the product is. I think I will pass on their color laser printer for $100 on black friday, especially given the poor reviews, but even more so if they won't support a consumer after the sale either.

Look at the response I got from Ahead Nero. I explained in a previous email to rebates@nero.com that I was referring to the $20 Upgrade rebate being handled by CPG not the $50 rebate being handled by another rebate house. Don't these people understand English? Here is the response I got...

Dear Nero Customer,

We changed to a different company about 6 months ago. Your check for $50 was mailed out 11/7/08.

Best regards,

Re Corsair on the summary post, I'm not sure they're CPG. Current rebates I have with them are being listed on a site run by Velocity Fulfillment, Inc. Same people??

I've got an email into Corsair CS to get clarification.

Logitech

Logitech is currently saying that all checks are good, but if you haven't submitted your rebate forms yet there is a new address. From http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/447/3469&cl=us,en:
Note About Mail-In Rebates

Recently, Logitech learned that one of our business partners for issuing mail-in rebate checks in the United States and Canada has encountered financial difficulties. The good news is that we are working to minimize any inconvenience to you:

• If you have a mail-in rebate check for a Logitech product, you should be able to deposit it without any issues.
  
• If you are waiting for a mail-in rebate check for a Logitech product, it should arrive on time or be delayed by a week at the most.
  
• If you are about to apply for a mail-in rebate for a Logitech product, go ahead and do so – the process does not change. You can use the address you have now or it might be slightly faster to use this new address:
  Logitech Rebates
  P.O. Box 540004
  Dept. #: (use the same dept number as on the rebate coupon/PDF form)
  El Paso, TX 88554-0004
  

Thanks eightyhertz.

I recently received a TRENDnet $15 MIR check which I have NOT deposited but never got the email that you quoted. I used the email address from your post and have sent them a query about the whole thing.

Related item: I deposited 2 PriceGrabber $5 checks on 4 November before I heard about this crap and so far they have not bounced. Am hoping that after 17 days I may have dodged the bullet...

Thanks again for posting the info.

Bill.

I sent my query to rebatequestion@trendnet.com and within a couple of hours had the following reply back:

Subject: Re: TRENDnet Mail In Rebate Problems

Dear Sir,

We have recently gone with a new rebate company, they are now handling all the customers from our old one. If you have recieved a check and have not cashed it you will receive one within 2-4 weeks from our new rebate company. There is no longer the need to send in your check, Please hold the check just in case.

Regards,

Customer Service

Appears we can just wait a bit and the checks will show up.

As promised, I have found out information about your rebate inquiry.
CPG has indeed filed Chapter 11, however Advance Auto Parts is working with them very closely to ensure that rebates are processed and the checks do not bounce. Advance feels the situation is under control so you should not have any issues with your rebate. If you have further questions, please contact advanceautoparts.rebatestatus.com or call 877-776-9655.

Thank you again for your inquiry and for your interest in Purolator products!
