I once again telephoned the Toshiba Response center and this time talked to a Supervisor. The rebate processor is [redacted]. They told me they are no longer under contract to provide the rebate and their service contract expired. If Toshiba knew this, why did they not contact me? I had to initiate this complaint for an answer of 'The check is in the mail'? 
I would like a specific time when to expect the $50 rebate in the mail, not the 6-8 weeks or 10-12 weeks I have heard since March 24, 2016, 27 weeks ago!Regards,[redacted]

I will once again state that Toshiba did not say the hinge wasn't covered under the warranty.  They told me it it was not under a recall and that it needed to be sent to the repair shop where they will determine whether it was covered under the warranty or not since they needed to inspect it.  When I sent it to the repair shop, they stated it was not their job to determine whether it was was under warranty or not, just to verify what needed repair and estimate a cost for the repair.  They further explained that any authorization to make a claim against the warranty would need to come from Toshiba. Also as I mentioned before, there are several models of similar Toshiba laptops that have already been recalled due to a faulty hinge. This leads me to believe that Toshiba knows the hinge is faulty and is refusing to repair the laptop.
