SGI customers will want to keep an eye on their mailboxes, as they should soon be receiving the promised one-time rebate cheques announced earlier this year.
Approximately 709,000 rebate cheques are set to be mailed out beginning this week, to continue over the next three weeks.
The large volume of cheques means that customers should expect their rebate to arrive between mid-May and mid-June, said a press release. Multiple customers in one household may not receive their rebates at the same time, as they were mailed individually.
Rebates are being issued to any entity that had registered a vehicle in Saskatchewan between 2018 and 2020, and that meets the residency requirements as of Feb. 26, 2021. This includes individuals, non-profit organizations and businesses.
The total value of rebates issued is $285 million, with the average rebate per participant estimated at around $380. An estimated 1.7 million registered vehicles were eligible, including motor vehicles, motorcycles and snowmobiles.
Rebates that were under $5 were not issued a cheque, said SGI, and will instead be credited to the customer’s account.
Customers are advised to make sure their mailing address is up-to-date with SGI, in order to receive their rebates more easily, and to be patient with the mail system.
If you don’t receive your cheque by June 30, SGI recommends calling the Customer Service Centre at 1-844-TLK-2SGI (855-2744).
