Taken from DPReview website:
Canon has asked US customers planning to take advantage of its rebate
program not to cash the checks they have received, following the company
handling the rebates filing for bankruptcy protection. The problems
relate to rebate checks for video and printer products dated prior to
November 14th. Any customer yet to send-in rebate materials should also
delay until further notice.
Canon made the following statement: "The third-party rebate processing
company that implements Canon’s rebate program covering printer and
camcorder products filed a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy petition on Friday,
November 14. Any customer who has received a rebate check for these
products dated prior to November 14, should not cash the check as it may
bounce. Canon is diligently working on steps to ensure that eligible
consumers receive valid rebate checks as soon as possible. More
information will be available on our Web site by Friday, November 21.
"We understand this is an inconvenience to customers. We are working to
resolve this issue as soon as possible. Consumers who have questions
about our rebate programs should call Canon’s Customer Call Center
1-800-OK- CANON."
