I am having  problem with $1k of southwest gift cards.  ordered on 2/6/2025, I asked about them on 2/17, sait it would take 5-10 business days.  Waited the 10, spoke to some on 3/7/2025, still no answer nor cards.  Very frustrating.  I am also ready to report it as fraud.  Very disappointing. AARP what is your next step?

So, I am new to this, but to have to spend points for a possible chance to win something is really scammy to me. Then you have to "earn" more by wasting time on here.  I do not like this.This not true of any other rewards system I am on.  So maybe will never "spend" the points and just let them go; it is.not worth being disappointed to find out. 

 I contacted Hartford for a quote and received one and the rates were not that good. I did this on Nov 7 th 2024 and am expecting to receive the duffel bag as advertised in the AARP Mag. No bag yet and by the looks of it, I won't be getting one based on other responses in this blog. AARP has received compensation from Hartford Ins for advertising and they should stand behind what is published.  I will not be renewing my AARP membership because you are just as guilty as the people/company you associate with. AARP used to be a organization you could rely on as being honest and support their members.

Starting a thread discussion UNDER REWARDS/EARN ACTIVITIES/ REDEMPTIONS for all members who are still experiencing odd technical difficulties. This is shame because I do enjoy the videos and games and chance at earning points and wins. I feel AARP is gaslighting us into thinking it is our fault ie. we are not clearing our cookies, using wrong browsers, etc. To date I have seen some members with the same issues: being directed to the wrong videos, the same wildfire video, not earning points, cannot access log in, etc. Let's try and post here along with any updates. Maybe there is strength in numbers. Also, if AARP sees the extent of the errors they will expedite a resolution.

All 450 points quizzes on page 29 are NOT working! AARP... You might want to ESCALATE that!

 I have noticed that the list of Fitness Trackers is growing, however, I don't use any of the trackers listed. I use Strava and Samsung Health. Any chance those can be included as Fitness Tracker options?

 Hello, recently I was not earning reward points after watching a video but problem solved after reinstalling the AARP app.

Last October I reported having issues with my Fitbit syncing/getting points for 5K and 10K steps. So I received the message below from AARP. They haven't been able to resolve.  Anybody else successfully getting points for steps from your Fitbit or other tracker?  Which one, which model?             "I wanted to provide you with an update regarding the syncing issues you've been experiencing with your fitness tracker and AARP Rewards.We have thoroughly investigated the issue you reported and have exhausted all troubleshooting steps, including:1. Verifying there is no system wide issue impacting fitness tracker connections to the AARP Now App2. Verifying there is no current issue impacting the syncing of your respective fitness tracker device brand to the AARP Now App3. Confirming that your AARP Rewards account is activeUnfortunately, it appears that the syncing problem may be related to your individual device or its compatibility with our sys

I have been unable to either play instant win or do redemption since January 2025. I am unable to send a private message because I don't have a private messenger tab. I have contacted AARP customer service through chat numerous times but after 3.5 months the problem still persists. Please fix it asap or terminate my membership and issue refund because the only purpose I bought it was to have access to AARP rewards. BTW my cousin who is the second in my membership has also lost her access to AARP rewards. Thank you

Both my wife and I have been unable to enter this latest $10K sweepstakes.  We get nothing but "bad request" no matter what we try.  We have cleared the cache, history, browser etc numerous times, logged out, back in, nothing works.  Tried to get help via the chat link, agent said she would escalate the issue, expect a reply by email, but nothing yet.  We're now more than two weeks into the sweeps time, still two months to go, so we're not panicked yet, but it would be nice to get some sore of acknowledgement or explanation.  This happens to us on two different laptops, and on three different browsers (Chrome, Edge and Firefox).  HELP!!

Tried to redeem a 5 dollar kohls card ( they used to offer 10 dollars but whatever) and keep getting a 503 error Service unavailable any fixes for this?

Recently I’ve been trying to redeem or play instant win and I was receiving this error message“Oops! An error occurred. Please refresh your browser to get back on track”. “Sorry, we are having trouble accessing your account. Click to login and refresh”Although I could earn points but I am unable to use them.  A few days ago, a member of my family called the help line to report an error that occurred during the registration and joining process.  Shut it down and carry out well organized maintenance.

Call me a slow learner, but I just found out about the promo code points in the newsletters.  I found the three most recent ones (journey, daqreo, and blues). Any way to find out past promo codes?  Will they still work?  Or is it unfair to ask?

Maybe we're not supposed to notice, but isn't the rewards program a lot less rewarding these days?  When is the last time we saw a $10 gift card available for redemption?  $10 gift cards used to be the norm - and prior to those days, even $20 or $25 cards were available - but now, $5 cards are the rule.  But the redemption limit still sits at 3 per month.  So, let's see: 3 x $10 = $30, and 3 x $5 = $15.  A significant decline, no?  And take a close look at the daily sweeps: in prior days, almost always 7 available, and "250 winners" was the rule.  Now, usually 7 available, but often just 6; and read the fine print: no "250 winners" anymore; 200 usually, but sometimes just 50.I understand the concept of "less is more" when it comes to decorating or decluttering, but less is certainly not more when it comes to AARP rewards program.  I'm sure I'm not the only one tired of this.

The 10K pursue your passion sweepstakes links to enter the sweepstakes are broken. Chat and phone help requests were disconnected. These are the provided links to enter the sweepstakes. Both trigger a "Bad Request" notification. https://sweeps.aarp.org/pursueyourpassion/aarp_login_reg?intcmp=ILC-EPRIZE-PPSWPS25-ENTER https://sweeps.aarp.org/pursueyourpassion?intcmp=ILC-DMP-MEM-GAMES-PPSWPS25-GAMEEND-2&affiliate_ID=GMOVR It seems I can't tell anyone about the broken links. The ad showed up below the spider solitaire game.

 Hello, I did not receive a $5 Panera gift card from Feb 1 ~ 12:30am.Thanks.

I redeemed 30,000 points on 1/20/25 for a 6month subscription to Peoples Magazine whitch stated it would arrive to me by mail in 6-9week that time has pasted and never revive the magazine. I tired e-mailing customercare(at)aarp.org and they were no help just robotic responses with no help. I want the 6month subscription that for the peoples magazine that I ordered and contact information for the company to find out where my magazine and fix the subscription. This Rewards company that is servicing the ARRP Rewards seem to not be responsive and doesn’t care about aarp memebers. -Pat

Update 4-10-25: Early a.m. hours - played Kohls Instant Win using 'free method entry'  and it works - it seems to be all working....for now......until......????--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------4-8-25  Tuesday early a.m. hours playing some Instant Wins using the 'free method of entry'  and repeatedly getting this 'big lie'......Wow!We love your enthusiasm. However, you've already played today. Be sure to play once per day for more chances to win.      However I never played a couple of these Instant Wins, yet. OK, maybe it's a problem with time zone differences and mixing it with my previous plays from the day before -  but when I try to play an Instant Win which I "never" played before - the Golf and Red Robin - Instant Win - I got the "Wow...... response" = 😤       AARP is using a blanket big lie response with the Instant Wins. Just recently some

The free method of entry for all instant wins was working very, very well until the last few days. Today DSW which expires today, 1-6-25, worked. The rest, Five Guys, JCPenney, Athleta, Jersey Mike's, Chili's and Chipotle, would not bring up the form. We're sorry, an error has occurred message, and refreshing multiple times does not bring up form.    I am using Edge; I have cleared all cookies and retried, I tried Firefox, and also DuckDuckGo browser.  @AARPConsumerCare can you please look at?

A few months ago, I posted a question on the forum about redemptions. My question was answered, but since then I stopped receiving Forum posts emails. How do get the Forum post emails back?
