I just opened up, charged and connected my Bluetooth speaker to my phone. Unfortunately the only sound that comes out of it is static 😞 It is connected but won't play sounds. What should I do?
I have found many articles and such (like finally finding these forums) but so very few have the "add to favorites" option. Why is this feature not more widespread on this site? Also, am I the only one that finds this site difficult to navigate? I'm quite computer savvy, but this site is extremely poorly put together. I hope it improves. Currently I'm not finding it very helpful and that's disappointing.
Sunday night at 9:24pm Central, and then Tuesday night at the same time, I received an email from AARP <AARP@email.aarp.org> with the subject "Richard, Action Required." The email looked official, and asked me to click on a link to confirm my email. I'm attaching a screen shot. I didn't click on the links, as I never click on messages of this nature unless I instigated the action of verifying my email (such as on a website when signing up for a service, when it immediately generates such messages). I then separately logged in to my AARP account, and checked that my email was properly recorded. Of course, I get about a dozen emails from AARP every week (mostly newsletters) so I already knew my email was good for the account. Are these legitimate emails from AARP? Why would they be necessary? If they are legitimate, this is not a safe practice for you to do. Thanks - Richard.
I just got billed $69 for Roadside Assistance I do not have anymore. I signed up a year ago but then canceled the membership when I sold my car. I have filled out a form on their website to tell them but am very upset that my original cancelation apparently did not go through. This is why I am chary about AARP and any annual membership. I absolutely hate these 'auto-renewal' things that surprise you. I don't have a car now and am retired on a fixed income. $69 makes a difference to me.
Greetings, I will no longer be using the AARP discount with Avis because I have documented where they have changed the amount I prepaid to create the math to not provide the refund I was owed for the difference between what I prepaid and what was owed. This was shocking, but not surprising because they have changed the math previously to not provide what I was owed. This time was so blatant because even while in the phone with there representative she continued to talk in circles about why the math was right even in the face of the evidence. I would advise AARP to review their partnership with Avis and where it not they are actually providing the discount and customer service that AARP members are entitled to.
I am livid. I recently changed cell providers to Consumer Cellular because it advertises, with AARP's help a 2 line for $55 price. I just got a full months bill and it is $72.50. I understand the various taxes entities charge, buy Consumer Cellular tacks on a $6.98 fee for "Operational Compliance." I've read several items that provide hazy and unclear info on what this is for, but apparently other cell companies do NOT charge this, or it's rolled into their basic charge so any discounts will apply to it also. I've also noticed my car insurance from Hartford, through AARP also going up rather fast. I am going to shop around for cell service and car insurance, and will probably discontinue my AARP membership which I am beginning to feel is nothing more than a pro business way to milk seniors. I've lost a lot of faith in you, and I'd like to hear from others who agree. Just respond to this, if you can, with the word Agree or Disagree...nothi
Consumer cellular offers a special unlimited data plan to AARP members - $55 for two lines.Unfortunately my wife succumbed to cancer in 2023 and I only need one line of service now being alone. I sent a message to Consumer Cellular, and I actually received a callback; however, the gentleman who called could only tell me that is the way the plan is setup and there wasn't anything that could be done. I know that AARP has significant influence with Consumer Cellular and ask that they please reach out to Consumer Cellular and ask them to offer a special unlimited data plan to AARP members who like me have lost their spouse, life partner or otherwise single. Thank you.
How do I remove previously approved avatars or photos that I have used in my profile?
Has anyone else been having a problem with the AARP app over the past month or so? Nearly every day the app crashes and will not allow me to log in. It says... "You've come to the right place, but there may be an issue displaying this page. Please try logging out and logging back in. Don't worry, we're here to help. Give us a call at 1-866-566-5394 and we'll take it from there." Yeah... GOOD LUCK WITH THAT! So I've had to uninstall and reinstall the app everyday to get around the problem! Using Google pixel 7
I went to Del Amo mall in Torrance and decided to surprise my husband with some Cinnabons and I was told that the owner does not honor the AARP discount. I was disappointed to find this out, shouldn’t all Cinnabon retailers honor the discount if that’s what you advertise?
With the unfortunate demise of a senior UHC exec, it has become widely known that UHC has dramatically increased their rate of service denial, contributing greatly to their increased profits. If AARP is truly an advocate for seniors, it's time for AARP to sever their relationship with UHC and choose a more friendly insurance company.
I finally was able to get back into the rewards area after the system was down, but now I cannot find the Carnival Gift Cards. Were they Discontinued?? If so that terrible!!:( if not can you tell where I can find them? Thank you
