Got 47.57
Got a check for $181.63 yesterday. Was skeptical. Took to bank…teller said she had seen another. She suggested I deposit instead of cash and wait for check to clear.
seems to be a great advice.
I actually own a computer store… I am curious.. does anyone remember how many CEU units you claimed? Did they send a calculation or explanation of how they arrived at the amount? Thanks… to the guy who bought, many servers, how many was that? What I am trying to figure out is the amount per CEU. No one at DRAM settlement will tell me. They say it is a secret. So, for those of you who got $16 or $17, I am trying to figure out if that was for one computer or two computers or do you even remember? Thanks all!
to avoid verification and request of proof, claims had to be reasonable enough and credible. no proof was required for normal quantity. I did claim 3 laptops, 1 desktop, 1 printer. I got 2 checks of 103.68 and 99.68. not sure if they will clear though. hope this helps.
if you receive check……that means they will automatically clear….
I had to fill out an additional form due to being a high volume business. My check was $2040.00.
That said, my bank put a hold on the check because they have received information that there is a chance it may be returned.
I got 181.63 but my Question is is it USD or CAD
I received a cheque too for the same amount…. $181.63 but I am in Canada. Is this USD or CAD? The issuer is a US financial institution.
then it is us currency.
Oh YEAH EAZY 1,356.55 I bought many servers back then. Lol Those things cost lol a fortune lol.Ha off to cash it at 1 am at Walmart. I thought it was fake but now I remember doing it years ago. Lol came at a time we really needed it too!Finally got somthi g back from those corporation fat cats who get tons of tax payers monies!
Does Walmart cash these types of checks? I got one a day or two ago for just under 160$ (Florida)
to be safe, it would be advisable to deposit the amount received on a bank account and wait for the check to clear before buying stuff.
$138.66-1 check in MA. 7/11. I filled this paperwork out over 5 years ago when it was listed in my copy of National Geographic, took a long time!
Received checks on 7/08/2016. One was for 55.XX and the other was $66.XX
GOT MY CHECK $305.00
$18.48 VA. Thought it was a scam. Now after reading these post I do remember filing the claim.
A pleasant surprise: a check for $181.63. I had forgotten I had sent a claim. This was enough to jog my memory. Thank you very much.
