UPDATE: I now see my $40 ink reward from July 30th recycling is showing up in my account. It was not issued at the same time as the regular rewards, but came several hours later, but it did come and that’s what’s important.

Can someone post the actual screenshot of this offer with all the fine print? Would be helpful for those who encounter problems getting proper credit if Staples CS has to be contacted when the checks drop in Sept.
@MrVietnam I can’t remember how they did it last year with this offer, if $80 shows up as the amount or its just a bonus amount that shows up in the check itself. I just turned my ink carts in yesterday, so won’t know my status for a few days, but I’m in that Staples Plus program (whatever it’s called) where you pay $49 a year ($24 in my case on a 1/2 price offer) and get 20 a month.
But why would it say as I posted “Limit 10 a month”? What I am thinking is that although my account says PREMIER they are treating me as a NON-PREMIER customer with the 10 a month limit. That is the way it should be as I have not qualified for Premier for years but have been enjoying Premier status. If they took me off Premier though why does it still say I am Premier on my account online?
Oh I see, but at the very least, wouldn’t you still get $20 for the 10? you got nothing. I’d take a screenshot of your ‘premier status’ on your panel and do a chat and see what you can negotiate with them.
It only has that “Limit 10” verbiage starting with my August recycles though. The ones I did in July don’t say that when I look at purchase details.
Curious @MrVietnam when was the last month you recycled ink at staples? you did 20 then and got full credit I assume. Just wondering if you’ve recycled at all in 2020.
Sorry. MC. My error. I was looking too fast. Indeed for my July recycling it also says “Limit 10” - but in July even though it says “Limit 10” it shows I earned $40 in rewards. So I guess my only issues are why I did not receive $40 ink rewards today (I will give it a few more days to see if it comes later and then do a chat as you suggested) and why for my 8/9 recycling does it say I earned only $40 (I assume it doesn’t mention the bonus $40 but they pay it later on). So maybe I still have them thinking I am Premier. That’s good at least, especially since I just invested in 400 empties off eBay two weeks ago.

Usually are ink rewards paid out on the same day as regular rewards? If I don’t chat will the ink rewards for July come later or will I just lose them?

Also, I bought toner on 7/29 anticipating the double reward promo starting 8/9 and on 7/30 I recycled 20 cartridges, but today when got the rewards earned from last month I only got $5 for regular rewards but nothing for ink rewards. Why would that be? In my purchase activity it said I earned $40 for that 7/30 20 cartridge recycling but I did not get rewards for it today, just the $5 regular rewards.

That’s interesting. I recycled 20 cartridges on 8/9, but in purchase details it says I only earned $40 from that and not $80:
725137 725137 - INK RECYCLING LIMIT 10/MONTH 20 $0.01 -$0.20 $0.00 $40.00
For the rest of you who recycled during double recycling rewards, did you get the full $80 in rewards? Maybe Staples finally caught up with me. I haven’t qualified for Premier for years, but they still gave me the Premier benefits. Now it looks like that may have changed, even though at the top of the rewards page it still identifies me as a PREMIER customer.

RE: Tello Wireless Awesome Back To School Sale! thru 8/20
Excellent idea, juicer. I can put $20 in the PayGo balance and then once every 3 months I can buy their cheapest plan, which is $6, and that way I could still use my PayGo balance for two out of the three months and still be a current customer under their new terms. Thanks for the idea. It’s nice Tello gives you a one week warning via email before closing down an account.

Kind of makes me wonder if I should stick with AT&T Prepaid. I can get AT&T Customer Service extend my credit validity time by 6 to 12 months by just calling in to customer service and asking. Last time I called in they extended my airtime by an entire year. They charge 10 cents a minute, but I don’t call much. The only downside with the per minute plans with AT&T Prepaid they don’t let you use Pay as You Go data. In order to have data with AT&T Prepaid I have to buy an expensive monthly plan. They also don’t allow me to use Google Voice with AT&T Prepaid.
