New offer from Sony Credit card on Sony Readers! - Page 15

I do not see anything on the website. I think I will bug them tomorrow.

just checked my bulk email account. Sony informed me that my reader has been shipped. I hope it gets here before my flight to San Diego on wednesday....its gonna be a long flight from DC.

My question is a little different than everyone else's. I signed up for and received the Sony card within the required time frame but am in no rush to get the Reader. From my understanding I have until 1/30/08 to order the reader. Do you think that if I wait until after Christmas I will have a better chance of receiving the 505 as opposed to the 500?

Thanks for all the information in this thread. It's been very handy.

i just called today and they said the reader is out of stock. They said I'll receive an email and a phone call in two weeks.

JTravers · 10-30-2007, 05:23 PM

Looks like the reader is back in stock on the Rewards website (do a search for "reader"). I can even add it to my cart. The problem is that the price doesn't get reduced to the promo price. I called the Redemption Center again, and they say (as they have been) that I'll get an email in the next 2 weeks detailing how to order the Reader and that I can't order it from the website right now.

Feels like I'm getting the run around because it makes no sense that I shouldn't be able to order the Reader on the site (since it's available) and have them adjust the price discrepancy after the fact.

Oh well, I guess we'll have to continue being patient with this.

I just checked the site again, and the PRS500 show up.

And I'm able to place the order and the discount show up too :-)

I'm now a happy camper, hehe

Glad you were able to place the order. Too bad those of us that had our orders canceled earlier aren't as fortunate

JSWolf · 10-31-2007, 03:06 AM

In the morning, I am going to call and if I don't get a solution, I will ask for a manager.

jemedwards · 10-31-2007, 05:28 AM

Got my e-mail notification from Sony last night.
The e-mail is timestamped 6:29pm.

Just placed my order.

Good Luck!

My order was placed Oct.8; I just called them again and heard the same old BS - you'll be getting an e-mail. I argued with the guy and told him that I have been hearing this e-mail stopry already for 3 weeks and he kept saying sorry he does not have any more information. He refused to give me a different number and would not transfer me to a manager.

The number I called is 1-866-556-7669; the guy spoke with a British accent.

I just placed another order on sonyreward site. The price was $59.45. So I have two orders pending now, 2 readers, both for $59.45 I used the same Sony credit card for both orders. I wonder what are they going to say now.

ctennenh · 10-31-2007, 01:38 PM

I saw that the 500 is back in stock on the sony rewards site, I was able to add it to my cart, and the discount seemed to apply. I called to make sure it wouldn't be cancelled and was told that, yes, my order will be cancelled if I haven't yet received the email from Sony. So it's up there right now, but there's no point in ordering yet, apparently.

jpfletcher · 10-31-2007, 02:06 PM

How many people have received the email letting them know that it was in stock?
I have not received an email yet and the site does not show the special price.
I called and the CSR was being an arse and he did not help me.

ctennenh · 10-31-2007, 02:18 PM

I never got the email, but after logging in, searching for the reader, and then adding it to my cart I saw the special price. You won't see that until you add it to your cart.
