S&W rebate update / new info 6/12/17

[InsideWaist]

I submitted online on 2017-05-04.

If it doesn't appear on the status page by a day or two before the end of the rebate promotional period (2017-06-30), I'm going to physically mail in the rebate form (with a tracking number).

I believe as long as it's postmarked by the 30th, it should be good-to-go.

Submitted mine online mid April and nothing showed up a month later. Called and was told to resubmit. Did that mid May and now it shows it coming back to me to complete?

Reviewed my submitted form and all is correct. I wonder if this company has done this before. Will wait till I get it back and send it via USPS

Has anyone read the rebate page? "Allow 8 to 10 weeks for fulfillment. That means if you filled out the form the first week of May you will see your check July 7th through July 20th. My guess is you will see approval a few days before they send you your check.

This is a good idea. Call the rebate company on like the 28th and see if they have a record of it...if not, then send it in the mail with a tracking number.

The Milano inquiry page asks for 4 items: Phone, ZIP, Last Name and Dealer Name.

What exactly is the "Dealer Name" that ought to be entered? I've tried "S&W" and "Smith & Wesson" and get a there-is-no-record message. But I'm wondering if I've even asked correctly.

IGNORE everything but zip and last name. It should show up then.

 

[Muss Muggins]

I've always found that if I followed the instructions at the time I submitted a rebate that I got the rebate check. Everybody needs to relax . . .

OK, tried that and still no record. Guess I'll just wait a bit. And BTW, I am relaxed, just curious.

I just tried the Milano site again with just zip and last name and voila, I'm valid. In the past I included dealer's name, which must have thrown it off.

Mail in rebates must be postmarked by July 31, 2017. I assume the online rebates are the same.

checked the Milano site this morning and now my rebate submission is on there. Submitted on 5/4...however the Milano website says the submission was received on 5/7..who knows why they are different...anyway, looks like its 5 to 6 weeks out from submission to the rebate status showing up on Milano site.

I think the concern is to assure the submission is correct and accepted. I don't believe anyone is trying to get their check quicker but there is a tracker site and people get nervous when they do not see their submission after several weeks. I submitted mine on 5/23 and see nothing in the tracker.

Exactly. I don't mind waiting 10 (or more) weeks to get the rebate...I just want to make sure I submitted everything correctly and it was received.

Purchased 4-1

Search page has shown my basic info with no numbers for a while.
Today the numbers 75.00 showed up on all 3 of mine.
The magnifying glass takes me to a white page for all three.

For what it's worth ....called the company (Milano) who is managing the S&W rebate program ...called because my electronic filing of 5/4/17 for my MP9 Shield was not showing up on their web site ...the person I spoke to said to check back in a week as they were processing 5/2/17 as we were speaking ...

My filing has appeared as a valid rebate... here is the timeline:
5/4/17 filed electronically
5/7/17 Milano showed as filing date? (hand entry?)
6/12/17 Valid rebate appeared on Milano site

I, too, submitted online on that day. Thanks, I'll check again next week.!

Mine finally appears on the Milano site. I submitted online on May 4, 2017, exactly 40 days ago (or 1 month and 9 days; or 5 weeks and 5 days), but who's counting?

Although, it does show that the "ENTRY DATE" is May 8. Go figure.

I submitted online May 5th and the website finally showed my submission this afternoon! Its not a check in my mailbox, but its looking good so far...

S&W Rebate system sucks. My $75.00 rebate was submitted on-line April 5th. They registered it April 7th. STILL have not received it. I submitted a rebate in the mail to Winchester for ammo in mid May. Received the check yesterday. Less than a month.THANK YOU WINCHESTER! What is taking the S&W Rebate sooooo long?

Chances are they are delaying the checks for cash flow purposes.

I too received a Winchester rebate yesterday and every rebate I've submitted with Remington took less than a month

I was thinking the same. Imagine the total amount of cash they should send out. AOBC will announce their results at the end of this month and I'm curious what they'll have to say about rebates, sales and margins. Their year and quarter ended April 30th so we should at least be able to learn something about the first month of rebates.

Called today both numbers I tried mailbox was full.
