AncoAnco/ Federal MogulAnco/ Federal Mogul Corporation Promised a rebate for $15. I did recieve the check and tried to deposit it but it was not a real check. Southfield Michigan
I was at a local automotive store here in Pensacola, Fl. and purchased a windshield wiper blade manufactured by Anco, which I thought was a reputable company, and was promised a rebate of $15. After I few weeks I did recieve the reabte however, after depositing it in the bank a few days later, it was returned back to me. The check that they had sent me was not an actual check, even though it has the name of their bank, pay to the order my name and address.
After recieving the check back in the mail from my bank, it was stamped as an invalid account plus I was charged a returned deposit of $7 by my bank. I know it's not that much money, but it's the principle of the matter. They promised me a rebate but sent me an invalid check. I don't believe that is fair and I'm sure that I wasn't the only one that this hppened to.

Response from ANCO and Federal-Mogul

Mr. Stewart's claim was received by Federal-Mogul on 11/20/06.
The claim was investigated with the bank that issued the check on behalf of ANCO and Federal-Mogul on 11/20/06. No return check was identified nor had any returned checks been received during the course of the promotion for insufficient funds or for any other reason. The bank indicated that periodically checks are processed to an incorrect bank routing number.
Mr. Stewart was sent a $22.00 check on 11/20 to account for the $15.00 rebate plus the $7.00 he indicated had been charged to him by his bank.
Mr. Stewart was asked to provide his original returned check in a self-addressed, stamped envelope.

Sounds like unlucky timing

I would bet that right after the rebate was sent either the rebate co or anco filed for bk or closed up or something like that. That would have caused all bank accounts to be frozen. Your now just one of many unsecured creditors with little chance of getting your funds.
