Wtf Evga

KainXS · Sep 14, 2008

I bought a EVGA 8500GT to use in my old pc like 3 months ago and got it with a mail in rebate now the problem was that I sent in the reabate and they said they never got the stub from the box and I KNOW I PUT IT IN THERE, they ripped me off for 20 bucks man :mad:

, its not even about the money really, I just HATE being ripped off

I should have stuck with XFX

sneekypeet · Sep 14, 2008

There is another thread in TPU ....seems alot of members are reporting the same tactic being used on them as well!

BrooksyX · Sep 14, 2008

Same thing happened to me a few months ago with an 8800gs that I used in a build for a friend.

KainXS · Sep 14, 2008

were you able to do anything about it

Fitseries3 · Sep 14, 2008

i used to buy from EVGA direct and they started screwing me on prices so i stopped getting stuff from them. it's a shame man.

DOM · Sep 14, 2008

Nope, Don't think Ill buy from them ever again. I usualy go ati anyways so shouldn't be a problem anyways

JC316 · Sep 15, 2008

Add me to the evga screwjob. Said no UPC when I damn sure did put it in there. Fuckers. I won't buy from them again.

zithe · Sep 15, 2008

That really sucks. Seems to be a common problem. I've only sent out one rebate ever and I just got it last week. (ePOWER)

paybackdaman · Sep 15, 2008

Yeah. about 3 or 4 of my friends have complained about the same thing, MSI and ADATA came through with their rebates. Glad there are some out there that honor their own promotions.:shadedshu

AsRock · Sep 15, 2008

Thats why i take pictures and make copy's of originals kinda surprised it with eVGA though ever thought they HT of not got it ?..

newtekie1 · Sep 15, 2008

Meh, I haven't had any issues recieving rebates from them and so far I have sent in 2 rebates to them this year the last one being in May.

SK-1 · Sep 15, 2008

You would think they would realize what a tight knit group they are screwing with, and with how much competition there is, and the internet forums...if true,..XFX for me.

Solaris17 · Sep 15, 2008

iv never had a rebate prob but i remember when i bought my 8600GT i tried registering it on evga's site so i could get the warrente and they kept telling me that the code on the back of my card wasnt correct EVEN in e-mails when i sent in a picture!! BFG or XFX all the way now

Yeah, I had a similar problem. I sent in a card for RMA and when they sent me the replacement card, when I tried to auto-register the new card, it said the card was already registered, the same happened when I tried to manual register the card. They did manage to clear the issue up after a few emails though. I'm surprised you had problems with them, but I guess customer service quality varies.

CDdude55 · Sep 16, 2008

I love EVGA, have a EVGA video card and mobo!. They both work well and are awesome. :rockout:

ShadowFold · Sep 16, 2008

Now that I think about it I don't think I ever got my 7600GS rebate. I bought that like 3 years ago :ohwell:

NeoCrisis · Sep 16, 2008

I had the same problem with 9600GT rebate from PNY
got an email saying that the UPC was missing and I knew for a FACT that I sent it in. I actually tape the UPC to the forms when I send in my rebates. So I called them, talk to a guy and he told me that yes there was a UPC taped to the form but it was a copy. Can you believe that? A cut out from a card board box with glossy finish and the person that checked it said it was a copy. I got angry and started to bitch the guy out and he said he'll send it to management to have it checked again... called back a few days later stood my ground and an bitched a storm again and they approved it right then and there and said Ill get the rebate with in a few days. Just got to lay to them and not let them push you around :nutkick:

. Remember You're the customer that buys their products in which puts money in their pocket.

EVGATech_Kyle · Sep 20, 2008

KainXS and JC316,
I apologize about the issues you are having with your rebate submissions. Please email me rebates@evga.com or myself directly at ksabine@evga.com with the rebate tracking number of the declined rebate and I will have this processed for you.

Thank you

very nice, I will do it when I get home on tuesday

thanks evga

mab1376 · Sep 20, 2008

At the start of this thread i was looking to XFX for my new GTX260, now i think I'll stick with eVGA again.

Their SEO department must have returned some negative hits and are trying to rectify it.

Joe asked me to post this..

I'm not Joe... Just noticed another rep said hello but here it is any way.

If you are having an issue with your report or product, you are welcome to email the details to jdarwin@evga.com and I will assist them directly.

Thank you,
