Carphone Warehouse - Cash back offer

Has anyone else taken advantage of a cashback offer from the Carphone Warehouse and still not received their cheque or had to wait months to receive it?

I bought a phone for my daughter in January and although it was not advertised anywhere in the shop, all of a sudden the sales guy told me about this fantastic offer on one particular phone through T Mobile.

I went ahead and took the phone on an 18 month contract and was told I would receive my cheque back within 30 days.

What a joke it is now almost June and I am still waiting, even though I have made several calls and sent emails.

Can anyone give me some advice as to whether I would have a claim against them?

Thanks

    Ive had a Carphone Warehouse cashback deal with o2 before when I took an 18-month contract.

    I had to wait 3 months for it but it did come. The thing is with these cashback deals is they hope you will forget all about it :)

    Keep on at them, they will send it eventually

    Why anyone would wait for so long without enforcing a contract is beyond me. LBA then sue. On the other hand, if you can't prove the deal in writing forget about it and learn from your mistake.
