Canon Cashback

.Longshanks.

Just wondering did anybody buy a Canon camera recently and send of the cashback offer? I sent mine off almost 6 weeks ago but heard nothing since.......is this normal?

I sent mine last week.
They say it'ld take upto 27 days for them to send it on the website.
Have you tried calling them lately?

You can check the status of it online I think. I remember mine took a while if that's any help.

hi,
i sent mine off on the 27 november and got the cheque back on 5 january.. €65
i pity those from the uk they only get £50 back :pac:

af_thefragile

So it looks like i shouldn't really expect mine to come back till march or something!

Cheque for €40 arrived today - even though i bought it in north using sterling. €40 < £30 stg :D

Yip 75 euro arrived last week so about 6 weeks of a wait.

I called about mine today, sent it in at the start of Dec. They have no record of it and want me to send it in again :mad:

Searching now for a copy of the receipt, I'm sure I took one but just can't find it!

mmalaka

I tried to call them

I am just about to send mine off, last minute as usual (offer is extended to feb 28th).

The address to send it to is listed as -

Freepost RRRX-UHCE-RSGT,
PWA,
9-12 Eastman Way,
Hemel Hempstead,
HP2 7DU

Is this where you guys sent it to ? I presume this is a UK address so I'll should stick UK at the end of it otherwise that wouldn't make it out of my local post office!

mmalaka

I used that address too

no need for stamps correct??

I will resend mine also...

Does the cash back offer relate to all Canon purchases do you know? i.e. I bought mine on amazon.co.uk and dont know how to go about claiming this?

af_thefragile

still waiting for mine here...
Hopefully should get it in the next couple of weeks maybe...

lottyprop

Mine is just gone off in the post now...

When i bought it the retailer mentioned a free training course. I called back in to the shop last week and they said I had to apply online. I don't see anything about it on the Canon site though. Could some on point me in the right direction for this?

Thanks

John

When I did the cashback thing (about a year ago) it was to an Irish address.

Received cheque for €65 today - took just over 6 weeks.

@mmalaka freepost usually only counts if you are in the same country as the delivery address as far as I know.

I sent mine (from Dublin) to the UK address in the freepost envelope and it arrived ok. I was afraid it hadn't been delivered so I rang the number on the form and the person I spoke to was very helpful, they even sent me the cheque in Euro even though the receipt was in Sterling. The whole thing took about 6 weeks.

I received mine after a long wait. I had forgotten about it and it was a nice surprise to find the check in the post. I also used the freepost address with no problems.

af_thefragile

I just received my today!!!
After i gave up hope i'ld get it and actually i had completely forgotten about it... But its good to finally see those 40bucks you were promised!!

Have heard of people waiting up to 12 weeks. Sent mine off on 19th of January so will give them a call on Monday if I dont get tomorrow or Mondya morning.
Wedding anniversary, Wife Birthday and mothers day..... All within 5 days would soften the blow if it came soon. If not its a bottle of vinegar wine and a chinese take away:)

I got mine last week, they had told me they lost my original application. However they checked again and found it, happy days

mmalaka

Looking for advice

I got my check I sent to AIB bank to put the cach in my account, they contacted me saying that they need to post it back to UK to change it to be useable for Irish banks and they they will charge me about 20 Euro and the UK guys will charge me another 20 Euro

so the check is with me now... anyone got this issue?

.Longshanks.

I'm with aib also. I just had to make my lodgment in person at the foreign exchange counter

mmalaka

I went to Blanchstown brandh and they took the check from me to send it to the foreign exchange .... next day they called to to say that they need to send it to uk ....etc
