I posted this Kellogg’s Gas Rebate info on Facebook, but wanted to make sure that everyone who was working on this or sent theirs in, saw this.
Those of you who did the Kellogg’s Gas Card promo…. On their site, they are stating that they ran out of cards and they will accept any that were mailed before 4/2. But, many of you mailed yours before then and are getting yours returned. That is because they have a new address you need to mail it to. I would take a pic of the post mark and a screen shot of the page where they are stating the 4/2 date and email or call.
IF you sent yours BEFORE April 2nd and it was returned:
I would put the ORIGINAL envelope with the post mark in another envelope so they can see that you mailed it previously.
Kellogg’s Gas Rewards Card
PO Box CAMB
Battle Creek, MI 49016
“Kelloggs Gas Card Program has ended early (original closing date 4/30/12) due to the company running out of gas cards.
Any envelope postmarked on or before Monday, April 2 will be processed; all others will not qualify.
Kelloggs Consumer Affairs Dept. provided the above info, 1-800-962-1413.”
::UPDATE From Courtney on FB::
They are honoring those that get returned, you just have to call the phone number and get a “reference number.” DON’T open the envelop that gets mailed back to you. Mail the whole thing back in so they can see the post mark date and they will mail you a check (they are out of cards and issuing a $10 check instead) I talked to them yesterday.
This is in their FAQ:
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Why has the Gas Rewards offer ended before the April 30, 2012 date listed on the order form? The offer has been very popular. Requests for the Gas Rewards cards have exceeded our expectations and supplies did not last long. As stated in the Terms and Conditions, the offer was “available while supplies last.”
I can no longer find the order form for the Gas Rewards card, can you send me a copy? No, sorry. Our sincere apologies but the offer has ended and the order form is no longer available.
I recently sent in a request for a Gas Rewards card, will I still receive it?
We are fulfilling all requests received that were post marked by the date the announcement went live on Kelloggs.com/AARP on April 2, 2012.
Will you offer this promotion again?

Oh darn, I sent mine in 4/7. This is the first time I’m hearing of it ending. And I didn’t even have a sender address on top of the envelope. 🙁
what should we with the reference number that we recieve when we call?
I have a question about the update (from Courtney of FB). Is she saying they will now accept ANY returned envelope or is it still just those postmarked by April 2? Mine is postmarked April 7, and it was returned to me yesterday.
Amy –
In response to your question, only rebate requests postmarked prior to April 2, 2012 when it was posted to the site that the rebate promo had ended (early) will still be honored. Your April 7th postmarked request like my April 7th postmarked request (also returned to me this week) will not be honored according to the promo reps I contacted 🙁
Thanks for responding, Laura. Oh well. Another day, another deal!
I received my card over a month ago and followed the instructions. The website says it’s got $10 on it, but it has been declined as empty value at 5 gas stations. What a waste of my time…..
I hate those prepaid cards. Did you go into the gas station, not just pay at the pump? Those are usually the instructions for those types of cards.
I did go in, to prepay as a credit card, as instructed. Another person mentioned she was having trouble find a station to ake Discover. Maybe that’s my problem, I’ll check 🙂
