just lost $100, ask me anything
so I go to fill out the dell rebate form and find out that I need the packing slip. The same one I threw out because I though the e-mail conformation would be enough.

Can I call them and ask for a second one? I doubt they'll accept the e-mail confirmation; another company runs the rebate program for them.

oh well.

2. Call and ask for another Copy
Say you need it for records.
Hopefully they will do it. Good luck waiting on the phone.
Yikes!
They take along time ...from experience..and they give you the run around.
Well 99% of companies do these days.

3. I'll just learn a few indian words
to charm the already friendly and knowledgeable reps :).

Is the "I need for the records" a legitimate request? Can they say we'll e-mail you one, or, just print the e-mail conf we sent you?

6. I think so too
they offer them because by far most people either forget about them, or "make mistakes" in the forms.
