From another forum on BFG....

Alright, here's "official" word:

Dear Valued BFG Technologies Customer,

One of our third-party rebate processing companies recently informed us that they are experiencing financial difficulties, and that the funds provided to them by BFG Technologies to pay rebate checks for certain BFG products were no longer available.

We are happy to inform our rebate customers in the U.S. that BFG has corrected the situation, and you CAN cash your check to receive your rebate payment. This applies to all rebate checks for BFG Technologies. For Canadian customers, please hold on to your check and do not attempt to cash it. We are actively working on a solution for you and will update this message or contact you directly before the end of this week.

If you have already attempted to cash your rebate check and the check bounced, or was refused by your bank, please contact us immediately at sales{at}bfgtech.com. We will issue you a new check that you can cash. Please include your contact information in the email. Please hold onto the bounced check if you still have it.

Please do not call BFG Tech Support regarding this matter. Submitting your information to sales{at}bfgtech.com is the most efficient way to contact us regarding this issue.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

John Malley
Sr. Director, Marketing
BFG Technologies, Inc.
Clarification:

If your check cannot be cashed or bounced, contact sales{at}bfgtech.com.

If you have not yet cashed/deposited your check, you can do so now.

If you have already submitted a rebate to CPG, just be patient and wait it out. You will get a valid check (as long as submission was valid, etc.).

If you have not yet submitted a rebate to CPG, check first to see if there is a WorldWideRebates version of the rebate with the same date. To check, go to the product page at the site you purchased the BFG product from. If there is such a rebate, use it. If there is not such a rebate, then go ahead and send it using original rebate form. It will still get processed (though there may be delays).

As always, keep copies of everything.

BFG Tech support cannot help, use the sales{at}bfgtech.com email for problems concerning CPG rebates. Because there may be a large volume of inquiries, please do not email if you are just worried. Email only if you have an issue such as a bounced rebate check or the rebate is past 8 weeks.
