 I have reported this issue several times over the last 2 months.  It was escalated to technical support and I has directed to an ombudsman contact.  This is still an issue and no one will respond including the ombudsman.  As this is not corrected and I have had NO SUPPORT I have resigned from AARP after eight years.  Got a refund..MAYBE when this is ever resolved I shall return.  Why can't a huge organization with a technkical team fix this.  I understand a lot of other member have the same issue.

    I’ve suggested that one might want to contact one’s state’s Attorney General.  Look up what they can do for you, and why.  As well as the FTC.

    For many months, I have tried to enter sweepstakes, and after clicking the "Confirm" button, always get the error message "Oops! An error occurred. Please refresh your browser to get back on track."

     

    I have used 5 different web browsers, Chrome, Vivaldi, Firefox, Brave and the TOR browser (a modified FireFox). I have used 4 different Internet connections. I have cleared Cookies. I have changed my login username/email and reset my password. 

     

    I *really* don't think this is my problem. Oh, did I mention that I have more than 20 years experience as a web developer and started as an aircraft navigation technician in 1978? I know how to troubleshoot. I am not an idiot, contrary to how the "support" on this site treats me, when they can be bothered to reply to me.

    Same here, and on top of that I received an email letting me know that I have 9,000 points to redeem prior to their May 31st expiration.  Well, HELLO AARP - please fix it so I can redeem them, please.

    I'm in the same situation, 3 weeks in.  I tried the support chat first and eventually received an email from Desi in "Consumer Care" on May 15th asking for more information (without saying what information was needed) with a number to call.  Of course my calls go directly to voicemail, and I've left TEN messages without a response.  Tried chat again twice, tried calling the rewards support number.  They all "thank you for your patience and understanding," but tell me to keep waiting.  

        I managed a help desk for a number of years, so I know this is not acceptable.
