E-3 Owners - Claim your free HLD-4 grip

[CaptainD]

Just in case any of you lucky E-3 owners are not aware, Olympus has a promotion for you to recieve a free battery power grip HLD-4. All that is required is for you to register your E-3 by the 31st of December 2007 and then send a copy of the sales receipt to Olympus. Of course you also can claim a free back pack before 31st of November. I had and email from Olympus this morning, here is the web link for these great offers

Hopefully all you lucky E-3 owners already know about these offers but I would hate it if anyone missed out on these.

Sadly I will not be one of the lucky ones

For the grip, do you have to have a camera already registered.

If so, i am screwed - as i sold my E-510 before registering it with Olympus.

One of the conditions is that you have your current E-system camera registered to be elegable for the powergrip promotion

Olympus UK are really pushing the E3 now with e-mails and letter post. They even think that I can afford two as they also sent an e-mail to my wife (some luck).
Now I wonder if they know its her birthday tomorrow and they are taking advantage. I hope she will be happy with a loan of the E500.

Does anybody know if Olympus reply to the emails sent for the two promotions or do we just sit and wait ?

Well I've had no reply from Imaging.News@olympus-europa.com (who I sent the emails to). So I hope that is normal! I have a feeling it is, with the E1 free lens etc promotions, you just sent in a postal form with scan or receipt adn warranty card and waited, there was no intremediate confirmation. A lens just turned up one day
Roll on the freebies!

I emailed the above addy when I could not log on to the Olympus consumer web site. It took 12 days to get a reply but they did reply in the end to confirm the consumer site had been down for updates.

I contacted olympus by phone to egister my interest in the E3 and also checked to ensure my E500 was registered. Te Europa e-mail address is for you to end a opy of your purchase receipt, as I understand.

Don't you just hate it when things appear to fall into a big black hole?

Re: E-3 Owners - Claim your free HLD-4 grip

I picked up my E-3 on Monday, and haven't been able to register on until this afternoon.
I send an e-mail to support team on Monday describing the problem - I got a error message saying: "Could not find your Login Name or Member ID. Please try again or call our support team".
All they did was sending my ID/password. Well well well how "clever":-(((
I also e-mailed Olympus Denmark but haven't got an answer.
Now I've registered everything (E-3, E-510, E-400 and lenses) and e-mailed a scan of the invoice and asked them to confirm my procedure.
