    Are you sure they still work? They might have voided them.

    Only one way to find out, personally I would bank that they are still valid, they werent offered as an incentive to buy, they werent a "gift" for a purchase, they were compensation for time and trouble. I never got offered any gift cards, the only extended bout I had with Dell CS, the manager simply said thank you for your paitence, and we will credit $xxx back to your card for your trouble, I forget the amount, either $100-$200.

    Are you going to buy another laptop with them or do you have other plans for them?

    I got $270 of gift cards too.. although I'm still waiting for the gift cards from the system I did NOT return in November... bu this has to be one of the systems I returned since it's the $70 4 year warranty upgrade thing...

    I can confirm.. they work. I figured dell owes me the $270 for the delayed $200.

    That's sick. Does anyone know if it's the same for the $70 giftcard you get for getting a 4 year warranty?
