Error: "Unable to process your redemption request"

For almost two weeks now, I've been getting the "Unable to process your redemption request" error whenever I try to play an Instant Win game or redeem a reward with points.

 

Can you please look into it?

 

Thanks.

I'm also experiencing this issue. I've talked to a representative a while ago, and told to wait 3-5 days for a reply. Never did receive that reply!

I'm still getting this error in December on Instant Win games with "experiencing technical difficulties and to try later".  Also, the black dash board showing total points earned is blank and dollar savings is "undefined".

Hello everyone 🤗. So what's up with this Instance Win game Error.

( Sorry, we are experiencing longer than expected delays in your point redemption, but your transaction is confirmed. Please check your transaction history in a couple of minutes. Thank you for your patience.undefined ) 🤔 . Take your points and no Sorry? I played the Amazon IWG at approximately 3:03 am est Saturday. Can someone please tell me when are new IG items put up on the webpage. Something fishy going on. I'm just saying

No, I spoke to several people from the AARP rewards program but the problem still exists. They are sending the information to the engineering department. The problem started in September and I would really like it to be resolved.

@AARPJanelleM 

 

It has been more than 2 months since this issue started impacting several of us. To this date, there has been no resolution. You mentioned that you escalated this to a designated team, but no one has reached out to me (or several others who've had this issue). More importantly, NO ONE has received a resolution.

 

In the mean time, we are all losing out on redeeming our points. What more, since you have a one year expiration policy for earned points, we will start losing the points without being able to redeem them.This is just not acceptable.

 

Since the issue started happening after the Baby Depot redemption, your technical team has a starting point or a clue as to how to debug the issue, It cannot be taking them this long to come up a solution.

 

I hope you address this as a priority and provide a solution to ALL OF US. Thanks!

hi tom

all of this happened after you redeemed the “Baby Depot” gift card, Right ? Sounds like malware attached to that gift card. 
just saying

Add me to the list of people having problems redeeming anything. I keep getting the dreaded "Unable to process your redemption request" every single time. It has been 6 weeks already. Can your team not find a solution for this? Thank you.

Same issue. Tried everything like clearing cache, cookies, using a different computer etc, Nothing worked. This seems to be more of a server side issue. 

 

For me this issue started after I redeemed the Baby Depot gift card on Sep 7th.  Normally, I receive the gift cards by email with a few minutes. This particular one took several days, which seems to indicate that something went wrong at your end. In addition, I have not been able to use my points to redeem anything since that day.

Yes, that's true I also redeemed for a Baby Depot card. Maybe that's the reason. It's definitely not on my end.

@AARPJanelleMI was wondering if you have any update on this.

 

For more than a month now, I have not been able to redeem points for anything (Gift Cards or Instant Wins or Sweepstakes), I get the same error every single time. Would appreciate your team looking into this.

 

Thanks!
