MCAFEE MCAFEE rebate is a total scam Internet

I followed all of the instructions, submitted all required documents, even the upc code affixed to the information sheet, kept a copy for my records, and submitted according to the time limit requirements.  I was told that my rebate was denied because of a missing upc code and I know it was a complete lie because I have a copy of it sitting right here.  Even if it did fall out of the envelope (which is impossible unless the envelope was ripped, I taped the original UPC code to the information sheet), I still won't buy any more of their products just because of the deception involved.  I think they want to compete with Kapersky (spelling) because their rebates are so good.  However, with the nature of the lies, they totally lost me as a customer.  Not only that, it slows down Windows 8 to a crawl and my system bogs down all of the time while I'm surfing the internet.  What a waste of money, and it's debatable whether or not I'm getting the protection I pay for.  I probably can get a better product for free without waiting for a rebate that I won't get.
