IMATION and OfficeMax Imation rebate ripoff deceptive company hagerstown
Imation offered at OfficeMax a rebate on CD-R packs. The only catch is that you must submitt and have rebate requested dated within 7 days afterpurchase.
These terms are not in the OfficeMax ad nor do the employees know about them. They are on therebate coupon in extra small letters and not listed with the submission requirements!
OfficeMax also gave me the wrong rebate coupon but to their credit tried to correct their mistake when told but mailing it to me of course took longer than 7 days. Watchout for Imation and OfficeMax rebates READ the offer requirements FIRST!

I purchased CD-R discs from Office-Max with a 3 rebate offer. One 99 cent instant rebate, one from Office-Max, and one from the disc company.
Upon purchasing the discs I was handed a "magazine" full of rebate slips from various companies & various products with no offer of help whatsoever from the store clerk. I found the rebate slip from the disc company and sent it in , along with the cash register slip, and the proof of purchase bar code.
I couldn't find a rebate slip from Office-Max so I called the store to ask them where it was located. I was told that I had to make copies of the ones that I had already sent in, so I gave up on that rebate.
About six weeks later I recieved my complete rebate application back, along with a letter saying that they could not honor the rebate "as recieved" but no information as to why it was rejected, & that I must re-submit within 7 days or it would be void.
This was only 2 days away so I knew there was no way I would recieve a rebate. Good luck to any one who tries to get a rebate from Office-Max.
