Get a FREE 8 GIG P2 Card from Panasonic (Oct-Dec Customer)

Jason Strongfield · December 24th, 2006, 02:58 PM

I heard panasonic is extending the rebate to March 2007

Nick Harris · January 11th, 2007, 03:42 PM

So, I took a second look on my printed invoice, and although it says I made the order for 8/30/06, I actually paid for it and picked up my HVX on 9/11/06 (it also shows this). I got wind of this rebate when i was out of town, but had an email copy of the invoice which I'd recieved after placing the order, which did not indicate that I paid for it on 9/11, since I hadn't paid for it yet. However, the October date indicated I was eligable, so I just used that info.

The problem is, they had originally stated that the offer was good for all purchases in 2006, january-december. So, now that one of you has said it's only going to honor september-december, I get the feeling that I'm getting assed out of my P2 card! I tried reentering info on the panasonic website, but it clearly states that information cannot be changed.

I was also wondering if they contact you to get your purchase info mailed out to them, or if i'm just totally screwed here! Is there any phone number I can call and contact panasonic about this?

For those who are wondering if they are shipping them out yet, my 8gb P2 card arrived today.

Thanks Jan

thanks

Purchased on 11/2.

I submitted the online request the early on the first day the link was up on the Panasonic 11/07 (It seemed like an entire month later).

On Dec 11th I received a letter from Panasonic requesting the original copy of the sales receipt.

Received the P2 card on Jan 12th.

I hope that helps calm the anxieties of those that are anticipating the arrival of the promised P2 card. It was a long wait, but worth it.

I registered my HVX in early Dec. I have not received a letter as Martin did. Last I checked on the Panasonic web site, my "order" (book and card) were being processed. I looked today on the panny site and can no longer find the tracking link. Perhaps I'm going blind - it is very possible. Has any one else received the requesting letter and is this the procedure?

Thanks. JT

Well, I did find the link and it's still in process but I'm still wondering about the letter part.

Well, I'm happy to say that a day later my card and book arrived!!! Now I'm cooking with gas!

Just a word of caution - I sent in my original invoice as requested by Veronica Burke and got delivery confirmation from the USPO. That was January 3rd. Having heard nothing, I inquired about the status of my P2 card a week ago, and was told that my invoice was never received. I have given them the tracking number confirming the delivery to their offices in Memphis and am waiting to hear back from them. If I were to do it again, I would send in the invoice with return reciept so I had a signature from their end as well.

Nick Harris · March 27th, 2007, 05:38 PM

So I've been waiting patiently for my P2 card and book for quite some time now. My application for the rebate was processed on 1/5/07, and today (3/27/07... over 10 weeks later) I finally signed for a package from Panasonic... but there was no P2 card included, it was just the book.

Don't get me wrong, I'm going to read the heck out of this book, and I'm glad to have it, but where the whizbang is my P2 card?!

Any of you who've recieved yours, was the P2 shipped separately?

I've called the phone number listed in the original post here like 50 times in the last 3 weeks, but nobody ever answers (or returns the messages, although I only left one or two). Is there another number where I might be able to get ahold of someone to get a tracking number for the P2 package that may or may not be coming?

Rob Quello · March 29th, 2007, 10:08 PM

Got mine today, Bought the camera in late January, got the book and the card in the same package today.

Nick Harris · March 31st, 2007, 05:04 PM

Does anyone know if there's a back order process going on? The problem is, I can't get in contact with anyone at panasonic, and I'm moving from the place it will be shipping to in just about 4 weeks.

It's not that I'm trying to be impatient, I just want to be able to change the shipping address at least before I move!

Mark Donnell · April 9th, 2007, 01:31 PM

Nick - I too have had a long wait for the P2 card. I sent in my invoice on 1-3-07 and have not yet received the card. I was in touch with Veronica Burke and Jan Crittenden Livingston by E-mail and they implied that there was a shortage of 8 GB P2 cards, thus the problem in filling the rebate requests. Hopefully some time in the next few weeks they will ship them out.

Mark Donnell · April 12th, 2007, 08:41 PM

Nick - the P2 card arrived today ! Keep the faith, yours should arrive sometime soon.
