Not sure why I got a denial email but I bought the Staples Kaspersky 59.95 download free with rebate and they sent me an email saying rebate not done properly or something. I followed the steps from FM and that is what I get for having anything to do with a evil blogger. I have already sent them nasty email and chat threatening to contest the charge and will if necessary but definitey not worth the grief for this small paying crap

well over 1000+ SERs over the last 5-6 years and I've never been denied a claim without legitimate reasons. Might want to double check the terms and your rebate itself. Likely a simple mistake on the form or something....a chat or call will also solve the problem even if you're in the wrong in my experience
I really don't want to have to go to War over some little thing like this it just seems like a battle I don't want to pick.

I got the same error email from Staples. I talked online with the rep and she confirmed it was a system error not recognizing the UPC code. She told me to check back in 72 hours. About an hour later I received an email stating the error was fixed and they were processing the rebate.

Thanks amol! Looks like I will pretty much break even plus 600 UR for buying the cards. Not worth the effort though it would be awesome if I can scale it 100x.

Well I've cruised through a number of drug stores, grocery stores, and gas stations in the Houston area and have yet to find anyone that will let me load any reload card and/or moneypack with a credit card and/or debit card (prepaid or otherwise).
This might be too local a request, but any tips via PM from a fellow IAH-area resident would be greatly appreciated.
I just want to make my blue bird sing!

That's my eventual plan; but Delta, AA, and Alaska miles aren't as valuable to me and my current travel patterns. Thanks for the tip, though!
