BUT it went to a page that wanted me to accept their terms but when I clicked "accept" it gave me half a message about scrolling down but I couldn't scroll down. So I decided to click the email link from my laptop. But it wanted me to input some code numbers which it filled in for me but then did nothing when I clicked it. So I decided to click on log in and I had written down my password so I knew that was right. But it told me my log in was incorrect so I thought I made a mistake typing the password so I tried again. I thought my username was my email but I tried logging in the second time and it told me that I only get three login attempts before it will lock me out. So I clicked "contact us". They obviously know who I am since they've emailed me- even if it's automated. There is no way to recover your username- just the password. Soooo..... I guess I'm ****ed. I don't expect them to be able to help me. So I'm out $30.

Sadly, way too often such places do a "bait and switch". I do think that if you persist, you will be able to get that rebate. However, I'm sure they will make it difficult. So often people just give up, like you're thinking to do. It comes down to whether the effort is worth it enough. You do deserve that rebate, though. I'm sorry if in the end you don't get it, @
