[9/20/25] @ridgeviewfarm , and some people had MAXED out for the day when AARP Teri had posted about the 500 points = got an "error message" because as you said, was NOT a "bonus". It took one of our "retired" IT members Denese @WebWiseWoman to figure this out. She knew to WAIT until the date had "rolled" over to try again. Geez. 🙄 Take care, Nicole!

Normally we would be able to earn our maximum points for the day and then get the points for the code on top of that. This time, the code points are going against our daily maximum. So all I really gained was 200 points, not 500. I assume this is the way it will be from now on.

I'm genuinely thankful that AARP offers us points, they’re not obligated to do so. The program terms clearly address service interruptions, and many other loyalty programs wouldn’t offer any kind of adjustment in similar situations. I appreciate the effort AARP makes to recognize its members.
