Rewards - Phone Verification 2025
AARP seems to be instituting "individual phone verification" for each Rewards account - which can be a problem for house holds with multiple users with separate accounts and not enough phones - either landline and cell per accounts. Be on the look out for this.
For me I have one land line with two separate accounts ( my mother and I ); and I'm stuck out cold - and I'm the paying member 🙄 . Live at the same address/ house but can't share the same number ???
I understand the need for true verification of accounts; but how can people resolve this ??? Does AARP customer care have a solution ??? ; A real solution. 😐 ( Update - I was able to use a sort of work - around )
I'm sure there are others who have similar type of situations.
