Yup, they said they sent me a letter in Feb, saying my UPC is invalid. I never got that so they said ok send in a copy of the UPC.

Which I can't find anymore. .

It's also perplexing, if my original UPC is invalid how the heck is a copy better?

I rush-shipped the cut-out UPC code from the box back to them and never heard a thing. I assumed it was all scam (or at least very shady) when just about every person who called them to check up on their rebate status was informed that "due to some glitch in the system, their personal rebate process was being held up... but only theirs."

I had:
1) Given up long ago
2) Forgotten long ago.

But... surprise surprise -- a $50 visa debit card from Nokia showed up in the mail. I wonder if Nokia leaned on the rebate company to clean up their act and "un-glitch" all the "glitched" rebate accounts...

What's sad about this... is I sent my original UPC in my rebate... So if they screw up... All I have left is a copy... (They don't send your UPC back, do they).

The requirement was there. I almost didn't file for it because it meant cutting the UPC out of the box it came in, and I strongly disliked doing that. I made copies of all of it and have scanned versions in storage just for this case, but didn't need it.

I was a pre-order, and can tell you all the "early adopters" were bumped when the great order-change-over happened, and as a result all fell inside the window. So all pre-orders and people getting the device up till the deadline were/are eligible for the discount. I got my N900 in November, filed the rebate in December, and got my Nokia card in January.

I bought my N900 on Newegg a week before Christmas (not a pre-order), and did receive my rebate card but only after first receiving a letter telling me I failed to include my Ovi username (which I, of course, did include in the original form).

I called the number on the letter, they asked for a case number or something like that which was printed on the form. She put me on hold for about 2 minutes, came back and said everything is taken care of and I'll receive the card in about a month. And I did. And I felt lucky every time I opened my wallet and saw the Nokia card...
