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 have been having problems redeeming my rewards since January. I get "Unable to process your redemption request".
I have emails documenting chats on this problem on:
January 14
January 22
January 31
February 14
March 7
March 19
No solution found. After a month of Customer Care hell, I finally got an email from Magda in "Customer Care" [sic] saying,
"We require some additional information. Please call me directly at (xxx) xxx-xxxx. I am available Monday - Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm (PST).
She has never picked up the phone, and she has never responded to the messages I have left on direct line. I have also left messages on the Customer Care line without effect.

I was locked out pushing 4 months and my rewards account was deactivated. They will only tell you garbage that you didn’t follow the rules. They will tell you that you cheated and frauded but they won’t tell you any more. And they bombard me all the time now wanting me to renew my membership that expires this month…

AARP you need to fire your consume care department that are fraudulently blocking people for no. Reason. I’ve been posting and emailing and still my account is locked. Message you for what. You do nothing. Unlocked all these people’s accounts. It’s not right what you’re doing.

I have been unable to process rewards since December 5 2024. The issue has been 'escalated' twice now and countless messages with the chat team. Always told someone will contact me in 5-10 business days and it has never happened. Then I receive an email telling me to call Magda at a phone number and I call countless times and leave messages and never receive a call back and that phone is never answered! Now Trevor is looking into it so lets see if something resolves now. I also want my account credited for the time I have been unable to use rewards!

It is day 20 for me. I am sick of seeing "Unable to process your redemption request."
When will I ever be able to use some points? Yes, yes, I am frustrated. I could really use some of the rewards. I have been escalated, whatever that means. I believe that I am in a queue and maybe one day they will get to me. Or not. I don't know.

Hi @11320cs !
Can you please share on this community thread (ERROR: Unable to process your redemption request) the info provided in the email that the AARP Consumer Care Ombudsman team sent you to follow up on your escalation.
Perhaps if EVERYONE on this thread contacts directly The Consumer Care Ombudsman team, this NATIONWIDE problem WILL FINALLY BE RESOLVED!
Thanks for your help.

Your private message instructions don't work because I don't see a Private Messenger tab at all. I and my 3 family members all submitted chats which are supposed to be responded to within 5 biz days, but it's been over 2wks. I understand it's the holidays and responses may be slow, but January is coming up and I don't want to miss out. We all get on the computers and manually click everything. We're fast but there's no automation, so stop blocking real people!

So many still being strung along by this company. This never resolved issue going on 2 months, is infuriating my wife now. I think shes going to start a complaint with the BBB. It might not be a bad idea for a larger group to consider this resolution path. Consumer protection.
Leroy sends emails and doesn’t reply for weeks at a time. Cannot send messages (access denied). Definitely not scamming any points systems and hadn’t used it in s year before the upgrade. Upgrade hits and bam, basically locked out of anything rewards. Hundreds of complaints. Zero resolution. Little to no effort being made to resolve anything in a timely manner.

That’s a great idea. I will file with the BBB to. Both my husband and I my accounts have been “ban” from rewards. I email to no end. They literally block thousands of people and they don’t care. This is what their team said to
me the first ti
e they blocked me: Thank you for contacting AARP regarding your issue.
Please take a moment to review the guidelines of the Rewards Program carefully. Note the section in the guidelines on completing earn activates, gaming and enforcement. If these rules are not followed you will have issues with the program which may result in a permanent loss of access to the program. You should now have access to the program.
i responded with what am I doing wrong so I don’t do it again?. His response: Per our terms and conditions, points that have been obtained fraudulently or through gaming techniques is a violation of the program. There is no further information that will be provided at this point. Follow the program guidelines and adhere to the terms and conditions and there will be no further issue.
what a way to speak to your customers. Accusing me of CHEATING! I don’t even know how to cheat to obtain points.
I can assure everyone I am using no techniques that are cheating. I literally click through the quizzes and answer each question. But some reason I got flagged again and blocked.
It really sucks because I’ve been using AARP FOR many years without issue. It wasn’t until
these recent updates that this happened to me and many others. It sucks.
