How to Claim Your AEP Rebates the Easy Way
It is estimated that over $500 million worth of rebates goes unclaimed every year. Companies will often offer rebates instead of discounts or coupons to avoid disappointing customers when the discount is removed, and the savings end. However, a majority of consumers don't bother with claiming rebates because the task of doing so is sometimes tedious or unclear. The process of claiming rebates on products usually involves finding a receipt or other proof of purchase and mailing in a form, then sometimes waiting longer than six weeks for your rebate check to arrive in your hands.
Fortunately, rebates offered by energy companies are usually easier to understand and claim. When you consider the benefits of switching to high-efficiency appliances, the rebate you receive from your energy company is just icing on the cake.
