      Complaint Type:
      Product Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      I booked a flight and hotel to the Dominican Republic through AARP Travel Center on 2/12/2023 for travel on 4/29/2023 to 5/6/2023 (Itinerary # **************). AARP offered a $50 prepaid **** card for booking this trip. The confirmation email indicated that I would receive an email providing details about how to retrieve the card 30 days before the trip. I never received the email, so I contacted AARP, and they told me to contact ***** Card customer service. ***** card customer service said they had no record of me in their system and told me to call AARP to obtain a ***** Reference ID number. I contacted AARP twice and they were not able to provide me with a Reference ID but stated that I was eligible for the prepaid card. I was told that they would escalate the matter to their supervisors and contact me. To date, I have not received any contact from AARP or ***** card. I would like this issue resolved and to receive the prepaid **** card.

      I am not positive this is the place for this, but could not find another AARP site to post on. I rented a car with Payless Car Rental in ********* through AARP/Expedia. Payless was the worst-- they charged us $550 for a cleaning fee because of "ashes in the car." This was literally impossible. They claimed they had a video but did not produce it when I asked. Long story short, our credit card company was able to recoup half of the amount, but we are out $250. I wanted to bring this to your attention because there are SO many reviews about Payless that state this very kind of fraudulent behavior. It makes me not trust that AARP partners are vetted as well as they should be. The Better Business Bureau issued this warning in 2017: ******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************(I realize it is my responsibility to read reviews ahead of time, but I assumed since it was associated with AARP that Payless was reputable.)
