I ask AARP to consider raising the amount of points we can earn daily
I ask AARP to consider raising the amount of points we can earn daily. Itโs been 7,500 points for a long timeโฆ.also we need more to spend it on besides contests & instant winsโฆthere has been too little elseโฆbesides the same thingsโฆ like E-greeting cards (which you can make for free) & these stoooopid coloring booksโ๏ธ ๐จ โฆlolโฆ
Today I went ahead & spent 11,000 points on a $5.00 office max gift card (itโs basically of little value by itself). Some of the few available $5.00 gift cards are worthlessโฆlike on NIKEโฆit wouldnโt even pay for tax! ๐There are so few gift cards to use โpoints onlyโ onโฆ& often sold out even as Iโm seeing them available for the1st time. Lately there hasnโt been hardly anything to use points on for the whole month. Soโฆ as I need to spend some points on somethingโฆwhatโs left I use 1,000 points on each contest that I could a actually use if I wonโฆ.like today there are 10 worth enteringโฆ& thatโs 10,000 points โฆso as I can only earn 7,500 pointsโฆtherefore, my points balance is continually shrinking.
AnywayโฆI hope there is some action on this.
As alwaysโฆthe community here is full of many nice people.
Take care ~Allen

Thanks for this post, Allen!
I have to wonder if it is a problem with AARP's "fulfillment outsource", that I contacted after being notified 11/22/2021 I won something...
Since receiving the notification, I emailed twice (two days apart) and finally included AARP as cc at which time finally receiving a response on 12/01/21. Since then, NOTHING.
I'm not sure why this was outsourced; I know some orgs believe that to be better, but in this case, I think we trusted AARP more when they did the work they promised?
But obviously something is broke here; AARP, please consider and move forward?

Hi @WebWiseWomanThanks for your reply.
Iโve had similar probs with helloworld on another website promo & basically it took 7 hours of phone callsโฆmostly on hold!...on a dozen different days, with many reps & supervisors โฆeach time assuring me that โthe matter has been escalatedโ โฆyah rightโฆhahaโฆโฆ.& almost 5-6 months โฆ.just to get what they said would arrive within โno later than 6 - 8 weeks, tops!โ Soโฆ..you canโt blame everything on the virus!
Thanks again ~Allen

I know where you are coming from Allen with HelloWorld. Won a Carnival Sweeps back in the day with R4G and never got the plastic gift card. Either HelloWorld or UPS or both of them had a hand in that fisco. Both blamed the other for the loss but neither would make it right. HelloWorld was the worst, rude, condescending, arrogant and even suggested I was lying ect ect. Got no use for them

Hi @rednexsrus
Thanks for your reply.
I agreeโฆunfortunately they are running many websiteโs promos & contestsโฆ.so they have total control of many peopleโs winnings & awardsโฆtherefore they can treat us anyway they want & seem to not care about individualsโฆas long as they get paid thru all their contracts.
Away, hope youโre doing well.
Take care ~Allen

6-8 wks seems to be the std response; so guess we'll have to wait for that.
One of the thoughts I have is @AARPLynne please pass on to ADMIN this is truly not acceptable policy. A sweeps win in Oct should not have to wait until Jan the next year, really... that's a #dotard time schedule...
