HP currently have cashback offers on some of their laptops -
typically you get £100 back on a £350 laptop, reducing the effective
price to £250.

Have any of you done this, and is it pukka?

Reading the small print, there appear to be so many conditions which
have to be fulfilled in order to claim the cashback that I wonder how
many people actually succeed in getting their cash before they lose
the will the live.

Any comments?


I bought an HP Microserver in November 2012; got the cashback simply
by posting in copy of invoice, and form with details including serial
number.

Did it again later the same month; again no problem.

The third one was rejected as the serial number said it was 'non UK
stock'. The dealer changed it for another (pre-vetted number) one and
it all went through fine. £300 in total!


And not fraud at all?
