Hello Everyone!I recently made a purchased of a Minn Kota MK-318PC onboard battery charger from an online store but when it came to register the unit thru Minn Kota for rebate it was denied cause of the serial numbers was invalid. I've contact Minn Kota via telephone they told me the same thing the serial were not even recognized or valid so i'm out of getting a rebate. Just wondering has anyone run into the same problems. Thanks in advance for any input or help!

I bought one in April and just received my $50 rebate VISA card today. The tag was attached to the POWER Cord, which had the serial # on it.

Not that this helps you, but it worked fine for me.

I have had customers send in the rebate form using the model number and not the serial number. They will not honor it. The serial number as jfdawson has stated above is on the power cord.

HodgesMarine are not on Johnson Outdoors radar as an un-authorized dealer so that should not be the issue.

Yup! I did used the 11 digits serial number from the unit power cord and matching serial from the box but for some reason MK is having issues getting some of the charger serial numbers to validate. I have not heard of a fake but who knows! The good new is their Technical Service Support teams will looks into it.

Don't fret it. I had a similar issue with some Humminbird rebates last year. There was a bug in their software that was corrupting serial numbers or something to that nature. They worked it out and all eventually went through.

I am sure they will get it resolved for ya.
