They prey you make a mistake so it can be denied (as does all other places)

You are such a postive minded person. Thanks for the great outlook on life~

If they (any retailer) really wanted to sell an item at a great price,
why would they require you to do this and that to get that low price....
Surely no body disagrees with my thinking..
>>>>They prey you do make a mistake...

I do many rebates and have always gotten them, so far the max has been $50 for HP laptops,
surely 1000's of them
but never for $500.00

EDIT:
I do not really track when I get them, recently, I got a postcard type letter from HP advising some checks sent were never cashed, and giving me the opportunity to sign that they were not...
The replacements cam with 10 days.....
So at least HP IMO did intend to pay out and have, but what if I have moved, and the request never got to me.

You have a very complicated life. If you can't trust, then don't buy items that require a mail-in rebate.

Whether retailer or mfg funded rebate, it would be ludicrous to think all are paid out.
It is obvious they are not or the amount would be given up front.
Why pay a middle man to handle them then.

Yes, surely something like no more than 70% are paid out....
Would I trust the $500 one, no.

Now I have had the Fred Meyer store and even Office Depot pay out on the spot if I were rejected more than once...
This would be where the retailer had the rebate as part of his ad, he is responsible to see you get it.

And I do not think we are getting off topic really, because of the high percentage of the rebate here v the OTD price.
I do hope FW gets what I mean.
I wonder if FW will cover the $500 if not paid out.

Is $500 Visa card on top of discounted price of $1697.99? Also, do you have to purchase this tv using Visa?

BargainhunterYura said:   Yes, they claim its on top of the $1697.99 they mail it 4-6 weeks after you get the TV. I clearly told them when I called to verify that if the card does not arrive I will dispute the entire charge.

While you can dispute any charge for any reason,
has any cc upheld it due to a rebate not being paid?
I doubt it.
There has been numerous posts on FW of getting rebates paid.

You can because the deal notated and two different reps at the company gave verbal confirmations that is the complete deal which means if I dispute with VISA they will state why and I will state they shipped half of the order only.

Either way...$500 gift card or not, $1700 for a 46 inch Samsung (3D or not) is NOT a great deal.And of course, they're hoping for less than 100% redemption on the Visa card...or else the TV would be $1197.
