    I read in different threads that people are not sure tailormade will honor their discount if Lenovo charges their credit card after Tailormade Promotion expiration so I e-mailed Tailormade and received this :

    Thank you for your inquiry,

    In this program, the offer is honored based on the date of order rather
    than the date of charge. You will still be eligible for the Lenovo
    offer.

    Thank you,

    Thanks for that. So if my order goes through, I have two cash back to wait for: Tailormade credit on my AMEX statement, and FatWallet e-check sent to me by email? Did I get it right? I just feel very uneasy about the discount that hasn't realized :cool:

    (btw I'm a little surprised they replied to you so soon)

    in few day you will receive an e-mail from Fatwallet and it will tell you how much is your cash back and when you will receive it ( almost 90 days) ,it will happens when Lenovo report your purchase to them , about tailormaid you will get it 4-6 weeks after they charged your card and you will receive it as a credit on your statement .
    Vaw we are here to help each other , this is what i learned from members here , they are the best and share everything they know and thats why this site is one of the best , in other sites you barely can find people share these discounts

    uh... that tailormade discount will reupdate itself. it's basically been on forever, and we'll continue forever. it's kinda like lenovo's sales, never ending.

    Wingsofeagle, thanks a lot. One question: when signing up for fatwallet we didn't input our address, how will they send me the check? Basically I'm not clear how fatwallet work with Lenovo. Does Lenovo know I'm a fatwallet member and will give them my mailing address?

    I am mightily grateful to all the folks on this forum who are so helpful giving advice, sharing photos and discount tips :) I learned a lot and will save a lot bucks. Thanks! :D

    Your address needs to be on file with fatwallet for them to send you a check.
    Also, you must click through fatwallet to go to lenovo, else u wont get cashback.
    Lenovo does not know you're a FW member.

    When signing up, all that's required to be filled in is email address and user name, no mailing address. :confused:
