Let us know what software it is so we don't have the same problem. I have similar frustrations obtaining rebates, especially for computer stuff, even if I buy it at major stores. When I fill out the rebate forms or web forms I find out that a physical address is required and it will be used to mail the rebate. When a phone number is provided I then call the rebate company (usually a different company than the manufacturer) and complain that I live in Alaska and the US Post Office does not delver to my house nor to many houses in the area. For that reason I and my neighbors all have post office boxes (only). I almost always end up with no rebate. They won't even send them FEDEX or UPS, etc. I recently applied for a credit card only to be told that the Patriot Act now requires responses to credit card applications to be to the physical address, no post office boxes allowed. I can't believe Senator Ted Stevens let tens of thousands of Alaskans get affected by that kind of blunder. Maybe he plans to force the post office to deliver door to door here. That would cost them a bundle! Regards, Horace Heffner
