It looks liek the rebate company [onrebate.com](http://www.onrebate.com) is going to deny me my rebate. It’s bizarre, atcually, since they sent me an email when they received the rebate in the mail and let me know it would be processed and sent. I should receive it in 6 to 8 weeks. That was 12 weeks ago. I sent them an email 4 weeks ago letting them know I had not received the rebate and they replied "you should receive your rebate in 6 to 8 weeks.  
I have sent them 5 emails asking them what’s up, but they are ignoring me.

Anyone know what I can do? They have no phone number.

Always make a copy (preferably 2) of all rebate papers mailed in.  
In the event they renige mail a copy of original submissions plus correspondence since, including rejection.

They claimed I hadn’t met requirements, when copies were submitted to support original request they came through.
