    Put my order in last week for my new dv7t with the $500 off coupon and entered order through the LIVE CASHBACK click. Went to check and see if my cashback was pending (it wasn't) and here's what Live Cashback had to say:

    "Based on additional coupons or discounts that were applied to this purchase, HP Home & Home Office has attributed your purchase to a referral source other than Live Search cashback. Because the merchant only allows one referral source per purchase, and because the Microsoft Service Agreement specifically excludes the use of coupons on Live Search cashback purchases, your purchase does not qualify for cashback."

    RIPOFF...won't use that piece of work gimmick ever again!!!

    that's normal. They are always going to make you use only one coupon/money saving technique.

    The live search cashback doesn't allow any coupons. It says that right on the page, so you should have realized.

    Fatwallet.com usually does allow coupons, but it takes a little longer to get the money back and the % isn't as high.
