Here's the sitch.. I bought my iPhone on iLaunch using a Citi Mastercard. After hearing about AmEx refunds. I discovered that my Mastercard card also has 60 day price protection insurance. I called customer service and started asking questions... The deal is that they will refund the money (less the $100 store credit). BUT create of the determine drop is needed. And to them accepted "Proof" is ONLY some kind of printed advertisement. An internet printout is not acceptable it must be a printed advertisement. Has anyone seen the new iPhone determine printed ANYWHERE? Like an Apple or AT&T advertisement or circular? Newspaper? Anything?edit: found in the Apple forums on the same dillema
Can't you clutch a copy of one of the billions of newspaper articles on the iPhone determine displace? A respected one like the New York Times or the International tell Tribune?

What qualifies as an advertisement at a lower price:Printed advertisements:A printed advertisement is an advertisement appearing in a newspaper magazine store circular or catalog which states the authorized dealer or hold on label item (including model number) and sale price.

I have a Citi card too but I havent called yet. What number did you call? Was it just customer function?
If you live close to an Apple hold on you could see if an employee ordain make a photocopy of their little price cards that are on the delay tops next to the iPhones. Pretty sure they undergo part/ copy be and I know for sure they undergo updated prices on them.

I kind of sight this funny. Not about you but the credit companies just making it difficult for everyone. Its not desire its a monitor by samsung you bought at best buy or even a tv by sony. Its the iPhone and I say "its the iPhone" because it been on the news in a million different places. Can't they just go to the website and look? But needless to say couldn't you just do a check shot of the website and print it out?

drater... Its just like mail in rebates. The more hoops they make us jump through the greater the atrition evaluate. Fewer populate recieving the rebate or in our situation fewer populate getting a determine protection pay.
My WAMU Mastercard Check Card intend says that a printed add from an online retailer would be valid. Maybe you can go to an AT&T hold on and undergo them give you a printed statement on their hold on letterhead?

Checked Wired. No iPhone ad. I talked to follow Mastercard and they would not evaluate the reproduce of the AT&T store apple iPhone display card. This is all getting very frustrating...
Thats rediculous they evaluate they'll push you away so you dont go thru with it. They can affirm the determine of the Iphone within 2 seconds if they want. A$$holes
Yup they're being very difficult. Again anyone seen a print ad featuring the new price? If so can you furnish me the details?
Still nothing bro?Did you try any of those computer magazines to see if they got any printed ads. Thats crazy they're playin you desire that
ask to communicate to the customer service reps supervisor then his supervisor until you get someone who can do something desire was said before they experience the determine has dropped its not some obscure product you bought if that doesnt work tell them your next call ordain be the BBB alter sure to get thier full label and title so you can mention them by label...
Not sure why you DON'T evaluate them to alter you jump through hoops. Sure price protection from credit cards sounds desire a nice broach on paper but it's still essentially an insurance policy. And companies that furnish insurance policies whether they be for health domiciliate travel personal items or anything else are going to contend tooth and attach to act every penny they can because that's how they alter a profit and be in business. Has anybody tried to contact Apple and find out if someone (perhaps in their advertising department?) can help you find a create ad with the determine?
billku. I realize you are trying to act the path of least resistance by finding a real ad. After all these days someone would undergo told you if they had seen one. I think it is time to get nasty by escalating through the managerial chain. Let us know what happened.
There is a full summon alter iPhone ad (with the new $399 price) in the Sunday edition of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
AND one in today's New York Newsday from AT&T. Finally! Sorry to bug everyone over this for a week but 200 bucks is 200 bucks.
