Am I understanding the TPC $360 is to be redeemed for paperwork and supplies on/after August 1st... but if I want products I can't redeem them until September 1st? :( :eek:

Oooh, I think you're right about that. I remember some date difference and that sounds familiar. Maybe because the products don't come out officially until Sept 1st. But can't we use the PC$ on product samples? I wonder if you can use it for those. Ewwww, I hope it works for you to use it up ASAP!!!!
 
Can you redeem them for current products starting Aug. 1st?

It says:
"You may use this award in any dollar combination. For example, you may redeem $30 every month, or all $360 at once.

You can use your award immediately beginning august 1, 2007 for paperwork and supplies OR beginning in September your award can be used for all non-commissionable orders.

Check is not redeemable for cash and cannot be returned for a cash refund.

This award is only valid on non-commissionable orders, and is not transferable. "

Looks like I don't get to use it at all unless it's for paperwork/supplies before they boot me out of the company for good. Do they repo my ruby ring, too? :(

Wait... are you kidding or did I miss something??? I thought you were only stepping down from directorship, not quiting completely... Now you have me completely confused!
 
I hate to even suggest this but...maybe you should call the home office? Sorry--maybe that hurts. It's the only thing I can think of--you deserve to get what you have worked for.

PS. Hide that Ring!

I found it... after I posted that I went searching for Laura's Changes thread and after about an hour or so just got to the end! That's what I get for actually trying to do real work at my PT job on Tuesday... never gonna happen again!!!
 
Laura, could you get a bunch of supplies and then sell them to folks here? That would be a back-door way for you to get the money.
 
Or she can ask if another consultant can enter the order and redeem them for her. Just call HO and ask.

Awww...too bad. Maybe HO will place an order for her on September 1st then directly into the main system.
 
I am sure that you can get your cluster mates to buy supplies off of you...then you aren't paying to ship them to anyone.

Let us know what you find out! You deserve to be able to use that $$, you earned it!!
