$300 Gift Card Bait and Switch?

I signed up for a triple play plan that promised me a $300 giftcard if I agreed to the 2 year contractual agreement. The deal mentioned that I must pay my bills on time for the next several months and wait 90 days for the giftcard to come in. So I waited...and waited... and waited... It's been 4 months at this point so I decided to contact Verizon to see if anything went wrong. As I spoke to the agents they claimed they heard NOTHING of the deal. Agent after agent, I kept getting a different excuse as to why I'm not supposed to get the giftcard. I did a quick search to find the deal that I was referring to when I signed up and I found this forum with many different cases JUST LIKE MINE! There are still forums and screenshots out there depicting the same exact offer I signed up for!

Am I getting ripped of Verizon? Is this a switch and bait? Please tell me that this is just a mix up. Your services are much more reliable than the cable companies but this whole giftcard / bait and switch fiasco is giving me a bigger headache than any of my prior service providers have gave me. Please fix this nightmare ASAP. I really don't want to go through the trouble of having to file a complaint to consumer affairs.
