    Hey guys. I've come across a problem. I've seen alot of cashback offers from HP on alot of the notebooks which are being sold at retail outlets. But I was wondering how reliable are they? Do they require like HEAPS (like mind blowing) of form-filling? Do they take really long to process the cashback offer? Are there any other fees associated with the cashback offers (mailing costs etc etc)

    This in in Australia by the way. Thanks for the replies in advance. Cheers!

    Hi

    My notebook was part of the $150 cashback back in january here in Sydney

    The form is quite easy to fill out. You need to fill out this online form then print it out.

    Then attach the form to a copy of your reciept and mail it to the HP address.

    I warn you, mine took over 2 months to process so be patient. They will notify you by email when the cashback has been sent.

    For $150, is spending 5 minutes filling out a form really that big of a pain? Seriously, that's like getting paid $1800 per hour. Waiting costs you nothing.
