Default Mobil 1 rebate MIA

I purchased 5 qts of Mobil 1 oil and a M1 oil filter back in early April, and sent in all required receipts etc. I kept copies, and I did everything properly. I have never received the rebate check. I went on line, and the rebate webpage has been removed. Anyone else not get their rebate check?

I believe the website is removed because at the moment there is no rebate going on, it ended May 31 2017. However you should have got your rebate long ago, I have usually got them in 2-3 weeks.

Those things usually take about 12 weeks go go through I believe.

Walmart has a $10 E gift card rebate on the purchase of a 5 quart Mobil 1
It's for the Extended performance. I applied online and received my e certificate Tuesday. It took about 5 days

I got a check in the mail for $12 from Mobil 1 about a week ago.

Can't remember when I applied for it ... maybe 2 months ago.

Oil was purchased at Walmart.

Same for me - on all three counts.

The last time I bought Mobil 1 about two months ago I bought it on Amazon Prime for $26 and change for a five quart. Little did I know if you look on the Mobil 1 rebate site it clearly says rebate will not be honored if purchased on Amazon. So something for you to think about in the future if you didn't know already.

Mine took 12+ weeks to get. I thought it wasn't coming and found this website to search for it. Found out it mailed the day before I looked and I received it the next day (last week)

Or longer. I did one last year and the year before. I think it took several months and very possibly than 3 mos. for mine to finally return a check. I've read on here where some get it in a few weeks, not me.

Red, I haven't gotten mine, either. I think it's been about 10 weeks. I am still confident.

Got a $24 check last week. It takes a long time.
I bought mine at Wally World.

Finally got mine after almost 3 months. Ridiculous!

Now I'm waiting on another rebate from AC-Delco for spark plugs. I'm sure that will be another 3 months.

With the technology we have today, it is appalling that anything like a simple rebate (that still comes in a paper check?!?!) takes longer than a week or 2 to process.

It helps to understand that the company uses the "rebate bait" solely to get you to buy. They are hopeful that you will forget to mail it in, lose your receipt, etc. When the rebate has to be processed, they are not going to put A+ effort into getting it done, as they are allowed a specified period of time to fulfill the obligation.

If they were really interested in [I]earning[I] your loyalty, they would offer an automatic rebate at checkout, as Costco so often does.

These mail in rebates are almost, but not quite, a scam.

I received my ACDelco rebate, still waiting on the Mobil1.
