Pan O Rama Redemption Extension?!?

[heat123]

I read on the other site that there was an extension to redeeming your points? I may have missed that it's already been posted here (I was gone all weekend) , sorry if it was but ...Here was the email that was copied from the other site, I however never recieved notification? did any of you and is it true?

Dear Consultant,

As you know, you earned Pan-O-Rama points by selling The Pampered Chef® cookware from Aug. 1 – Nov. 30, 2007. These points could be redeemed for free Stainless or Executive Cookware pieces. As stated on the promotional flyer, the Pan–o–rama redemption page and in Weekly Bites, all points had to be redeemed by midnight on Dec. 31, 2007 or they would be forfeited.

It has come to our attention that there was some confusion regarding the forfeiture of unused points. Because we know how important it is for you to have cookware to demonstrate at your Shows, we will make a one–time exception to the rule. As a result, you will have until Jan. 31, 2008 to redeem your unused points.

Please be aware, after this date, the unredeemed points will be forfeited and no exceptions will be made.

Also, going forward, exceptions will not be made to promotional rules, so please make sure you read the promotional flyers carefully and adhere to any deadlines.

To redeem your points, go to Consultant’s Corner > Consultant Incentives > Promotions and Programs > Redeem Pan-O-Rama Points. Remember, you only have until Jan. 31, 2008 to redeem your points or they will be forfeited. Don’t wait!

We did get this info, but maybe someone will see it new from this post.

Has anyone tried to redeem their points after Jan 1? I have a consultant who missed the Dec. 31st deadline and I wasn't aware of this extension...when did it come out? Thanks for the info.

It came out at the end of last week. I think that only consultants who had enough points to get something got the note.

I redeemed mine the day we got the email. It was up on CC the same way it was before.

I know some people are upset with the extension but I personally was very happy to not give them up. With Christmas and New Years, I was just too busy to think about it until all was over and we settled down on New Years Day. I know I should have redeemed them early and it was TOTALLY my fault, but it is always nice to be given a second chance. I can understand where they are coming from though b/c there have not been exceptions for them in the past. I think there must have been loads of people that did not redeem and HO realized the deadline being during such a busy time was probably the reason.

The reason for the extension was that MANY in the Hispanic market did not understand the wording about the deadline. To be fair, PC extended the extention to everyone. Be thankful for that gift. :love: :balloon:
