Cashback Query - Missed the deadline date

Can anyone help? I've missed the 28-day deadline for sending in my first cashback for to the phone company. Should I....

1. Send it in immediately.

2. Send it in now but put an old date on the covering letter, suggesting it's been delayed in the post.

3. Wait until the time they suggest before contacting them if you don't get paid has elapsed (about 49 days from memory) and then email and say where's my money. When they say they didn't get the application, send a copy in.

Thank you!

PS It's one of the smaller companies if that makes any difference.

    :doh:

    If you have not complied with their terms, they do not have to pay out the cashback and I doubt if they will whatever you do. This is how they make their money!

    :idea:

    Invest in a diary or set a reminder on your phone!
