Bookshelf code invalid through rewards

I Received an Xfinity reward for $10 off of the bookshelf and it says it’s a bad invitation. I use the straight link that is in the rewards to connect me to the bookshelf and I pace the code exactly as it is given with no extra characters or spaces, and it says invalid invitation in red this is not happened to me before I had no issues

@XfinityJeff​ I am on direct messaging and XfinityOrlandoM is telling me he "doesn't see that it was redeemed on my account and that the offer has sold out and is no longer available."  I had redeemed it a few mins after 12:00 eastern and received a code and I also redeemed the movie that became available today and I've redeemed items every Thursday yet in the "Your Redeemed Benefits" part of the page it says "You haven't claimed any benefits yet."  But the xfinity support employee is passing this off as I didn't claim it in time even though I've told him all this.  How did I receive a code if I was too late?

Doesn't help.   The link just takes me to the standard Xfinity page.  The problem is with the Amazon link.

Hi there, @user_5d9db4. Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Community Forum and sorry to hear you're having trouble with this reward. Can you let us know if you're trying this on a mobile device or a PC/Laptop?

Same issue here. I get the error message "There was an error accepting the invitation.".

I'm on a PC.

I've identified the problem. Each Amazon Bookshelf reward is supposed to have a unique URL. It should NOT be the same as the one given with the prior Amazon Bookshelf. The URL given this week is https://www.amazon.com/ab/shelf/465030c0-cca9-47bb-a3ef-f2d786a020f3/applyCode . But that's the same as the prior Amazon Bookshelf, "Gaming is For Everyone!". If I go to https://www.amazon.com/ab/shelf/465030c0-cca9-47bb-a3ef-f2d786a020f3/redeem then I see the "Gaming is For Everyone" Amazon Bookshelf.

Please provide the correct URL for this week. It should have a different string between "shelf" and "appleCode" ( 465030c0-cca9-47bb-a3ef-f2d786a020f3 should be something else).

Thank you!

user_crpxdm Have you tried accessing the reward using a private browser or incognito window?

The same thing happened to me I received the Xfinity bookshelf board tried to redeem it. It said it was invalid. Then I tried to look at my previous rewards and they are all gone. Also, I logged in several times. They were there last night. I cleared my cache . I can’t access any of it as it says I’ve never deemed any rewards, which is incorrect.

@user_v57og3​ if you are still talking to tell him it was a brand new reward for today and that once a reward is redeemed it always shows as "all gone" because you can't get a second one.

I have the same issue, got the code and have been waiting since noon for an updated URL. Do I have to open a ticket or will they let us know when it's fixed?

same issue here.  On PC, redeemed the book reward shortly after 12pm and when I try to redeem it on amazon it says "There as an error accepting the invitation".  I try to go back to rewards and it says the reward is out of stock and there are nothing listed in my redemption section even though I had several showing before and my other redemption from today, "Pokemon Detective Pikachu" movie isn't listed there either (I did get the movie though).

I also checked on mobile.  There it shows the book reward is out of stock and not showing in my redeemed benefits so I can't even get to the code over there to try it.

I see similar issues where I know I claimed and got the code but the link doesn't work for me.  I just noticed it is not showing up in my"Your redeemed benefits" section.

Hi there. We understand why that would be frustrating, especially since you have used Bookshelf rewards before without any trouble and have already confirmed you are using the link and code exactly as provided.

 

As a first step, please check the reward in your Xfinity Rewards account and confirm whether it still shows as active or claimed, along with the expiration date. If the reward is still valid and Bookshelf continues showing “Invalid Invitation,” that points to an issue with the invitation code itself rather than how you are entering it.

 

Let us know what status and expiration date you see for the reward, and we can determine the next step from there.

As I said  "NO benefits are showing under redeemed." Not the Pokemon movie I did before the Bookshel rerward, and none of the ones that used to show there reflecting the previous weeks/months of benefits. The only place I have the code is in a screenshot.
