How come I cannot log into AARP news on the Apple News page like I can with WSJ and some other subscriptions I have?

Moved to a new state - how can I change email notifications from NJ to NC?My address is changed in the contact us page (months ago).I'm still getting updates on AARP in NJ via email.I looked in the communications area to see if there is a specific, state-based publication option and couldn't find it.

I am beyond frustrated with AARP's emails containing links for things I want to read further. The links open in a new window but they require you to log in. There's no log in link on the page so you open a new window to main site and log in. Then do a search for the article you were originally going to read and only get articles that are years old (no way to sort by date). Information changes too quickly for old articles to be of any use.So, I look for some way to report the problem. Nothing. When you click the "contact" link, there is nothing with an email address to send questions to. It does show a chat option, but it doesn't work/do anything. There's also an option to share your screen. Don't know if it works or not because I don't allow anyone access to my computer.It's not very often I try to access any articles because most of them are not realistic or are so vague you'd think they were written by AI. Case in point - a recent article about creating a budget complete with downloa

Hi…if I wanted to send in an essay written by my 78 year old mom, to be published in your magazine would that be something AARP would be interested in. Thank you🙂.

Good Morning, Will you be updating your 1040 Tax Calculator to reflect the correct deduction(s) including the new BBB 6000 deduction? If so, when? Thanks.

We are in Choctaw, OK...  Looking for a water aerobics class for seniors for my husband.  Does anyone know if there are any options in our area other than the YMCA?  Apparently the high school used to do this... but no more.  Also looks like one of the junior colleges might do it but I can't get anyone on the phone to find out.  Any info members can find will be appreciated.

 The following is from https://bipartisanpolicy.org/explainer/the-2025-tax-bill-additional-6000-deduction-for-seniors-simplified/ On top of those increases to the standard deduction, OBBB adds an additional $6,000 deduction (per individual) for taxpayers 65 or older. This new deduction supplements a preexisting addition to the standard deduction for seniors of $2,000 for single filers and $1,600 per qualifying individual for married filers. This addition to the standard deduction is not available to tax filers who itemize deductions. Has anyone heard any talk of when this new change might show up in the AARP 1040 tax calculator?

I amnot receiving my magazine/ I am still at the original address, in california

I updated my address a month ago on my account but magazine still going to old address and then forwarded to me

Tried several times to hit the link to enter for the "getaway sweepstakes"; however, kept receiving a bad error code?  AARP sent me the email referencing entering this sweepstakes.  This is the very first time that I actually attempted to enter one.  Guess I'll have no such luck on this one?  

Using the latest version on iOS as of today (4.1.5, released on the app store 2 weeks ago). I wanted to keep notifications turned on in case there was anything account-related, but toggle off the news notifications. I did that last night and this morning I was inundated with them. Went back in to the app, toggle for news was once again turned on. Did all the basic troubleshooting steps; logged out, quit the app, logged back in, uninstalled and reinstalled. The issue remains. I was chatting with someone here but got disconnected. I would just like to put in a bug report so the developers can look into and fix this.

I was just notified yesterday that the 55+ park I live in is being put up for sale. This is in Thurston Cnty. WA. I don't want to lose my home.

MODERATORS: Measles, Medicare, Medicaid, Food and Housing, Money, Inflation, Deflation, War, Climate, Emergency Services, Military, ..............on and on and on and on and on...........  EVERYTHING THAT AFFECTS THE LIFE OF SENIORS IS A DISCUSSION POINT IN TODAY'S POLITICAL WORLD, AND YET, THIS WEB SITE, UNLIKE MOST OTHER WEB SITES, PUNISHES ITS' MEMBERS FOR SUCH DISCUSSIONS. As one of supposedly 38,000,000 members, I would appreciate it if AARP would reverse its' poorly thought out policy of terminating any political discussion on its' forums. It stifles most discussion about all the things that affect the life of a senior and most of all........     MAKES THIS SITE ONE OF THE MOST BORING SOCIAL MEDIA SITES ON THE INTERNET.

For the past 6 months, at least, every time I click on my AARP Rewards emails, I am told there is trouble accessing my account-I must click and refresh, and then log in to my account. I used to always be logged in unless I specifically logged out. Not a huge problem, but irritating

Wow, for a group that touts how much they respect and want to help seniors it's pretty funny that their own information is so convoluted that it just confuses rather than helps. You have links to instructions on how people can turn off auto-renewal (your docs specifically say 'Cancel at any time') YET on your website the information that was filled out originally for payment info is nowhere to be found I would specifically have expected to find it in 'My Account' and/or 'My Details' but nope, not there. Upon researching others requests for cancellation I found that persons were to select/create an option to allow for private messages, and to my not so unexpected astonishment, that option doesn't exist either! SO, I suspect the only way to cancel what has become a useless subscription (yeah, auto-renewal is such a scam, companies expect people to forget they have them, shame on you AARP scamming seniors like that) is to call in, which is incredibly disappointing as I really don't want t

I have an account under 2 different email addresses. The one that has 10's of thousands of points is the email address that is going away. Does anyone know how to consolidate all of my points under one email address?.

I have been getting the same error message whether trying to earn or redeem rewards - either try later or login again - neither works. This all started when I renewed membership. Anyone else have issues?  It's frustrating and makes me want to ask for my membership money back.

As of 6:45pm 6/26  - It's available for members only folks - Going to GO FAST!

Hi, since I got charged for a membership $20 ,and I canceled, is this still active for a yr. What are my benefits. 

Your articles have links to share via FB, Twitter, and Instagram -- why not by email?  There are frequent articles I'd like to share with my wife or daughter, but I'm not on those platforms (and don't want to be).

 My secondary email is correct, how do I find out what my Primary email address is and change it if necessary? The email address for a member of my household (husband) is incorrect, how do I change it? Thank you - 

I noticed on today's leader board for the game 5ROLL, one of the leading scores was posted by a user named @newAARPaccount. Is that for real or is that another glitch in the security of your gaming platform? I noticed that this user registered over 11 YEARS AGO, is designated a NEWBIE, has ZERO (0) POSTINGS, has that unusual user name, and seems to only have visited to post a 5ROLL score.  Does that not seem strange to you as MODERATORS?  Please explain if it does NOT seem strange to you.

Hi. After retiring, I started a new career I think would interest AARP magazine readers. How do I get in touch with someone at the magazine who might be interested in writing an article or small mention about me? Thank you.

For those living in VA can you share what the yearly car registration renewal is in VA? If it's like where we live now in NC inside of Wake County it can fluctuate from county to county. This is specifically for the western side of VA near the mountains and country. I didn't see that on the smart asset website I'm using to compare TN and VA ideas for retirement. One thing is for sure overall VA seems to be less costly in the western part of the state than Wake County in NC where we're at. TN in Tri-cities was less costly with homes and retirement, but many outsiders have moved in from more expensive states and really messed that market up unfortunately.  Thank you for any guidance. Rick
