Aarp - Review in Insurance category
AARP wholeheartedly endorsed Obama care even though it was the most destructive threat against the American healthcare system Now they're saying call your congressman to vote against the new health care plan smells of strict politics They should be making suggestions to improve the new health care plan since their main responsibility is improving healthcare for all the Americans not again becoming Involved in politics Tom
Aarp - Customer Care Review
I believe AARP is mostly a ***
I joined AARP a few years back. I'd turned 55 and thought it was what you did.
After only one year, I decided to not renew my membership primarily because of the huge amount of junk mail that I received. I now believe that AARP doesn't care about it members. It only cares about how much money it can *** out of its members. One example is the solicitations I'm still receiving over 2 years after my membership lapsed: Every few of weeks I receive the same solicitation from AARP.
On the front of the envelope it boldly proclaims "CARD ENCLOSED" and "IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT MEMBERSHIP". The enclosed card is actually card board piece telling me abut the free duffle bag I'll get when I reinstate my membership.
Bogus Roadside Assistance Mailer
I received a mailer for AARP roadside assistance through Allstate. The offer included 2 watches even if I decided not to keep the offer.
The website in the mailer did not work after several tries. I googled AARP and found several websites for their roadside assistance but no mention of the watches. You pay the same through AARP as you do through any other roadside service company. Still, I wanted to give AARP roadside service a try even though I wouldn't get the watches.
I felt that I would be more protected though AARP. WRONG. Their website would not accept my debit card and instructed me to call a number, which I did not do and will not do. I have sent several emails to AARP about this matter and have yet to receive a response.
They are known for bait-and-switch tactics and I will never ever try to purchase any of their endorsed products again. I also will not be renewing my membership.
They have conned me for the last time. Are you listening suppliers of products and services through AARP?

Worst Customer Service
I belong to AARP and made the mistake of booking through their travel site "powered by Expedia". I booked non-refundable, discounted rooms, paid in full in advance.
The week before my trip, I called the hotel to verify dates and check in times, no answer. So, I called the parent company, Choice Hotels. They confirmed I was paid in full, the dates and that I could check in late. We get to the hotel, the manager says that the rooms have not been paid for.
I spend an hour on the phone with the Expedia call center (somewhere in India), who tells me this is a third party reservation and to call AARP. I spend an hour and 20 minutes on the phone with AARP (again, a call center in India) who tells me that this is a third party reservation and that they can't help me. I finally call Choice Hotels again and they confirm that I am paid in full. I ask that they call the hotel manager to let him know that and they put me on hold.
While I am on hold, I get disconnected. I call back and the person yet again, confirms that I am paid in full and puts me on the phone with the hotel manager who is very condescending and arrogant. I hang up and decide right then and there, that I will never book through a third party again. And the AARP membership will not be renewed.
This started my vacation off on the wrong foot. AARP, Expedia and Choice Hotels have been crossed off all future booking lists.
Be Wary of AARP invoice tactic - You don't owe them anything
Consumer over 50 - BEWARE New solicitation tactic from AARP in California. An invoice notice stating you are late on paying and invoice and their VP, Mr.
O'Day is concerned. Just to let you know, you aren't late, you probably didn't even sign up. AARP appears are cash poor and just want your $16 at any cost. You can get their attention on their Facebook page.
Messenger appears to be the only thing working for them. If you want to get discounts, shop wise and local - the people down the street will offer you more!
Hope this is the 100 words you need....... Ok is this the right word count?

My mother paid up 5 years in June. (She uses there supplemental medical insurance which has been very good and must maintain current membership).
In December they send her another membership bill even though she has 4.5 YEARS remaining. Are they doing this to get seniors to write them checks thinking that their membership is expiring soon?????
