Shelli,
I am not affiliated with AARP, but I had the same problem. I tried 4 different credit cards and none worked. Finally, a brand new Costco CITI VISA card worked! You may already know this but the NAME and ADDY for your credit card must EXACTLY MATCH the NAME and ADDY that AARP has for your account (logon to AARP, select your name in the upper right corner, then select ACCOUNT to see how your NAME and ADDY appear). Then, do the same for the credit card you wish to use. I hope this helps!

Same I really do want to report them now and I will be canceling my subscription with them you snatched my money off my card but still no gift card my cruise will probably leave before they even get back to me . AT THIS POINT they can keep the gift card and give me my money back or I will dispute with my bank no way you took my money and I don’t have no gift cards and you can’t tell me why like wtf . NOT ACCEPTABLE

@BreionnaH726171 Thank you for getting back to me. I have removed your email address from your reply. AARP recommends not sharing personal info in public forums such as this. It sounds like you need to enable your private messenger to send us a private message. You can find the steps to do that here: https://aarp.info/47hWcl7. If you prefer to reach out to us using a different method, you can do that here: https://aarp.info/3epCObA. Also, if your issue has already been escalated, you can expect to hear back from our team within 3-5 business days once they review your case. - Janelle M.

I only signed up for the gift cards as well and Im having the same issue. The charge is still pending on my account so Im hoping the transaction falls off later. If I don't get the cards, I just want my membership fees back. My cruise is THIS week. I hope we get it figured out!

I've done everything they suggested. They did reach out to me, and I did what they said there also.
My CC matches identically, and I still get the error.
Time is money, and I've wasted a lot of time - I'm just going to Carnival and paying the full price. I won't be renewing my membership tho. It's been a PITA.

@TracyM848275 We hope you'll reconsider. I have escalated your issue and a member of the Rewards team will reach out to you in 3-5 business days by email. In the meantime, maybe try to turn off your AdBlocker. Thanks so much! Jodee R.
