Complaint Review: Best Buy

I bought the Emachine computer combo the day after Thanksgiving sale. I mailed off the $50 rebate for the monitor and the $350 rebate for the computer. I certified each envelope. Triple checked ALL requirements to make certain I did nothing to screw this up. As that is a big amount of cash back rebates. The only eay I can afford the computer at the time was to put it on my Best Buy credit card as well.

So I get back my 2 cards (One week apart from each other) One is signed by an employee and the other is hand stamped. "Reconsider" I have no clue what this means so I call the rebate center and talk with a gal. She says that she doesnt have all my information that I need to give it time to be put in the system. However she did state that "reconsider" usually means that something wasnt done properly.

Well, I told her that it must not be true as I had the mail lady double check for me before I put the stuff in the envelope. Then I said "let me guess, the reconsider was the $350 rebate right?" and of course it was. So my thought is this. IF they do deny me my rebate for whatever purpose they dream up. I will return the computer and everything else I purchased from them in the past 3 months.

Any one else have a "Reconsider" on their rebates? How can they reject something when I KNOW I did it RIGHT?
