You bought it in the eligible time frame, yes?

Why cant I buy a itunes card?

[champnou]

sure did buy before that date.

im just noticing that my number does not show up on itunes.

just got my apple $100 credit! wooo! Anyhow, for those wondering what i'm using. Its an iphone bought from ebay, activated, but unlocked now running my att plan, and i disabled my edge network, so no huge fees since i dont need internet on the run =]

[.:MirrorminD:.]

I think this was the easiest most painless non-waiting credit i ever got in my life. Time to buy a nano for $99 as a christmas gift

Yea i got mine from ebay and still got the 100.00 credit...I'm going to buy the New Nano

[iphonejeff]

wow there aint much for the iphone...

[ComputerGeek96]

i have a corporate account so i activate outside of itunes and it won't let me get the credit.

[ps2gamer02]

i just tried an it said i wasnt eligible but i remember i had a different number when i first got it so i tried the old number an it worked but its sent the text to the old number so i had to call apple an get its straightened out so if u changed ur number ur gonna have to call apple.

oh an P.S dont mine the grammar lol

From the site:

"To receive a credit, customers must submit requests between September 13, 2007, and November 30, 2007"

"ill take care of that later" doesn't sound like a good idea on this one.

i bought the bluetooth headset - Im a glutton for punishment when it comes to apple.

I know someone mentioned waiting til Leopard. Guess you cant if it's release date is after nov 30th :-\

It activates, but not legitimately. AT&T doesn't see that I have an iPhone so I can't get the rebate, and I'd like to activate through iTunes so I can get the rebate.

If you don't have an AT&T account, you can't get the credit. If you have had an iPhone just sitting there for months now, you have bigger issues and need to visit AT&T or Apple and have them sort out why it isn't working. Sounds fishy to me.

They prob meant waiting to use the credit on Leopard. Once you get the credit, it has no expiration date.

I activated my iphone I bought on Aug. 21st and it work like a breeze. Then I tried to activate one I bought for my girlfriend the day of the price drop and IT WORKED!!! So I have $200 credit!! WOOT!!! (YES I BOUGHT A 4GB IPHONE FOR $299 ON THE 5TH OF SEPTEMBER AND GOT THE REBATE) I dont know how but I just followed the same steps on both.
