Showtime 59,000 Points Gift Code Not Found Error

[mi4090]

Hello Rewards Community

I redeemed a total of 177,000 points to purchase (1) $25 card in April and (2) yesterday.  

I was unable to redeem the (3) codes yesterday via Showtime.com;  error message is No Code Found.

Has anyone had the problem?  Showtime asked me for a PIN but digital card only has code.  This is a lot of points to not be able to watch Showtime.

Management could I please get my points back or some assistance.  Thanks

Have a Blessed & Safe Day

Hello @MemberS2006 

I've tried setting up standalone account, entered billing info and then entered code and still No Card Found error.  

Showtime stated that if codes are valid they should work, also said I can log in on Showtime via Amazon with email and password to watch.  This is how Hulu & Starz works and no problem with those codes.

Thanks for the suggestion, and praying I can get my points back.  Seems to be problem with the codes or maybe their website.

Almost (2) months now and unable to use first code, now (2) more with same problem.  

Refund of points would be appreciated  because AARP digital codes aren't recognized.

Hello @MemberS2006 

It's been a nightmare losing the 177,000 points and still unable to watch Showtime😢

@AARPBriana  could you please investigate, and your help would be greatly appreciated.

We checked on your 3 codes and they are all active. Have you been redeeming via https://aarp.info/2THaHKo? Per the Showtime terms and conditions the card/code can’t be redeemed on an account that is billed through cable, satellite or other third-party distributors, such as Comcast, DIRECTV, Apple, Google, Amazon, or Roku. The link asks for a code, not a PIN, so you will use the codes that you redeemed for. 

If you are still having trouble redeeming the card you can find more help on the Showtime site here: https://aarp.info/2M5aWe4 or call the Showtime Customer Care Center at 1-800-746-9846.

Hello @AARPCaroline 

Thanks so much for responding😊

I've been communicating with Showtime on a daily basis since 4/1/20, the date I redeemed for the first gift code to no avail.  I've followed their instructions, plus the instructions on the printed AARP Rewards Showtime How to Redeem gift card.

I'm unable to setup a stand alone account for Showtime, and upon entering codes I'm getting a Code Not Found error message.  I just received a code from Showtime to enter to no avail.  You can confirm with them that none the (3) codes have been used or applied to an account for me.

I would appreciate just getting my points back, I haven't been able to watch Showtime at all.

Thanks for all your help.

Similar experience here with a Door Dash prize. Pain in the neck trying to straighten it out. Requested ability to be able to win a 4th prize this month since the DD prize was negated, haven't tried, but I know better than to hope for ability to execute it, and its for damned sure I'm not stupid enough to try to take the reposted points and purchase a still available 62K point Door Dash prize. No pin = disappointing experience.

Now having said all that, I must say you are lucky to have had the Showtime prizes cancelled. I get Showtime, and aside from Inside the NFL, it's not a particularly good network in my self proclaimed respected view.

Onward and upward
