Did they already send it to you or did they tell you that it would be 2-3 weeks? When I called this morning they agreed to e-mail the card; however, she said it would be 2-3 weeks and then she verified my email address.

I was told the 2-3 week thing also, and verified my e-mail address.
 
I ordered my MacBook Air on June 11th and it arrived a week later.

Just called Apple, and they refunded me $100 of that purchase because somehow they were unable to provide me the gift card.

Great customer service 

Wow. Just like that. Good guy Apple never stops impressing me. They really go the extra mile to make us feel happy and fuzzy on the inside. :)

Yes, 2-3 weeks....i would LOVE to have the $100 off taken from the Enormous 1622$ i paid...do we have an option of getting that done rather than getting the card ? We are customers and want a win-win lol !

Do you have some sort of physical proof (i.e. e-mail, confirmation number, etc) that you will be receiving the $100 gift card in 2-3 weeks? What if the 3 weeks pass and you don't get anything, and they have no idea what you're talking about and say that you bought the laptop like almost 2 months ago when the promotion wasn't even available! LOL

When I got off the phone with Apple the same thought went through my head. I'm thinking of calling back tomorrow to discuss it further.

I got an email confirm from the rep I spoke to.
 
i DID NOT receive any email :( :(
:mad::mad::mad:

I also didn't receive an e-mail, and I actually requested one or a confirmation number. The rep said there isn't one and they took notes in their system that other employees can refer to.
 
I got told 3 weeks on the phone, but have no email confirmation...I'm sure they have calls recorded.
 
I was told about an email, but I didn't receive it.

Anyways, the rep did the job and as I said they refunded my $100. He even added 7% tax :D

Of course I'm not buying any gift card.

So you have an option to either take the $ off or the gift card ? Although i don't really care about the $100 cash back into my account...but will be good to know

I don't think so.

I called because I bought my MBA before this promotion, and I wanted the gift card. The rep told me that he was unable to generate a gift card for me, but had no problem taking the price of the gift card off my macbook payment and back to my credit card.
 
I just got my code in an email from Apple! Shortest 3 weeks ever! Apple is great!!
 
Just called them. Getting it within 3 weeks, they said the order confirmation number is the same as the one for your laptop (if you ordered it online).

I can confirm this. I was also told 3 weeks and received the code yesterday in an e-mail. In previous years they sent a physical card, so was surprised to see this but its fine either way.
