Hello my name is Rebecca,
I found a claim certificate you mailed quite awhile ago. Is it still valid? I Couldn’t find an expiration date on it. We now have a store in our town. Please let me know I don’t want to take to the store if it has expired.
Thank you,
Rebecca Ackley
So I received a certificate good for $7.50 but it can be used only AFTER August 20, 2017. So are they hoping that by providing a certificate almost 6 months in advance of when it’s eligible for use, that customers would misplace it, or forget about it and therefore, the company never has to make good on the deal for many customers? VERY STRANGE!
True! I just got that same one. I did however get one in the past that I took advantage of. Anyway…nuts. in NY they STILL ask for my number. I always say its private and that I will not give them free marketing info
Please excuse me from this whole settlement with Burlington. I have never been to or bought anything from them. I do not want anything to do with this Burlington Class Action Settlement. Cancel the $ 7.50
gift certificate immediately,I’m throwing it away today.
Thank you, James Wesley Brady
