Same here. Asked to send the packing slip or receipt. Rebate form did not ask for it. Why are they changing rule of the rebate?

I have called the 800 436 6494 number and was advised that you can fax the reciept to 1-866-843-9980 together with your rejection letter.

Then you can call them back at the and confirm they have recieved everything they need (even though they never listed it on the form) and will process your claim.

When I called to check on my status they claimed they had never received my rebate form. Now I have to scour my folders to find my tracking number and return receipt.

I got back my denial with "You didn't activate an Ovi Store account".

I called the number and was told that I needed to do Maps AND Store with the N900 -- even though the Ovi Store hadn't launched.

They said there was nothing they could do, and to call Nokia. So I did.

Nokia told me to call the rebate people because "We don't handle rebates. That's done by a third party."

I ended up complaining to the AG.

Did you will in the box that asked for OVI username? I doubt they went to the trouble of verifying 'when' the user was created.

of not, can you just give them an existing username?

I used the account I had with my N97 -- the same Ovi account I tied to my N900 and used Ovi Maps with.

Apparently, that's not good enough for them.

Funny... the rebate form says it has to be postmarked by the 7th... and the Ovi Blog says the beta opened on the 12th:

I called today and 'Holly' initially told me that they did not get my receipt. I told her it was definitely included in what I sent. She eventually read the receipt and the date of the purchase (I did not tell her this information), and said my rebate would be resubmitted.
We'll see. This is so sleazy.
