Can't get into Membership Benefits on 10/29 (sorry, you're not eligible to redeem benefits error)

Hello.  I just tried getting into Membership Benefits today 10/29 to see the new drops for this week and am getting an error "Sorry you're not eligible to redeem benefits".  This has worked every week prior for years.  I am Diamond status, and my login is Primary.  In fact, on the main xfinity login page after logging in, it shows Diamond, and all the Membership offers that are available to me, however clicking on any of them gives that error.  I have made no changes to the account at all.  I have also cleared cookies and cache.  Google search says to contact xfinity for a "backend fix".  Please help get this corrected asap so I am not missing out on offers.  PS, I see no option to "Direct Message" so it appears I need to post here first and then that option is activated?  Thanks.  Chad

Hello! We understand your concern, especially since you've been able to access your Diamond Membership benefits for years and don't want to miss out on this week's offers.

 

We've seen similar reports of customers having trouble accessing their Membership benefits, and there's a workaround that has helped.

 

We know you've already cleared your cache, but the workaround requires completing the steps in a specific order. First, clear your browser's cache and cookies. Then, while signed in, visit https://customer.xfinity.com/membership/history and select the "Back" option. This should redirect you to your Membership benefits.

 

Could you give that a try and let us know if you're able to access your offers?

 

As for Direct Messaging, you're correct that you'll need to create a public post first and receive an invitation from our team. We can continue helping you right here for now!

Hello.  I just tried that, and for a SPLIT second it looked like it would load and a "Back" button appeared, however it instantly went to the "sorry you're not eligible to redeem benefits" error before I was able to do anything.  Please provide me a DM link so I can give you my specifics so this can be properly corrected.  Thanks.

@user_o9pz0u​ please reply on this post if they actually fix your similar issue, as they STILL haven't fixed mine yet, after doing multiple unknown things and new ticket numbers and different departments etc.  In fact, they promised it was fixed "in an hour" today, and that was 4 hours ago, and guess what, it's not fixed!?!  It's obvious it is effecting many people with whatever THEIR issue is.

The issue has not been resolved for me. I can't keep watching my DM to see what else they need. I just checked again and they need to do verification but the DMs coming in are sporadic and I'm not able to reply when busy with work, etc.

Same exact issue for me. Spent an hour on chat and phone w/ Tech Team on 10/29  who started a ticket. Still haven't been able to access my Diamond benefits on my Primary account. One thing I didn't report was I made a Xfinity password change earlier in the month (around 10/10) because of a general security alert from my Norton service.

Please authorize a DM for me. Thanks.

@drdata,I completely understand your concern, especially since you’ve been able to access Membership Benefits without an issue previously and don’t want to miss any of the current offers. Since your account is still showing Diamond status and you’re signed in with the Primary Xfinity ID, I’d be happy to help look into why you’re suddenly receiving the “not eligible to redeem benefits” message. 
Please send us a direct message with your full name and address.
Here are the detailed steps to direct message us:
Click "Sign In" if necessary.
Click the "Direct Messaging" icon.
Click the "Start new conversation" (pencil and paper) icon.
In the "To:" line, type "Xfinity Support."
As you type, a drop-down list will appear. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list.
An "Xfinity Support" graphic will replace the "To:" line.
Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window.
Press Enter to send it.

Experiencing the same behavior.  DM sent.  Before this the page was redirecting to a membership benefits support page.  I contacted support about that and then started getting the ineligible message instead.

Spent an hour and half on direct messages this morning and the end result was just another ticket submitted which I doubt carries any more weight than the one I originally submitted myself last week.  The previous ticket was marked as resolved despite the only change being that the website now gives an ineligible message instead of redirecting. 

With the previous issue of redirecting, I did catch a flash of something "=ineligible" in the address bar, so the code is deeming us ineligible based on something even though we are marked as eligible elsewhere.  This morning I tried a computer that had never accessed the website ever and still got the ineligible message, so nothing stored on our computers is triggering that flag.  I did receive a notice that my due date was changing, so maybe something going on with the eligibility check for the account being paid up to date. 

The fact that the website behavior changed slightly while not correcting the issue makes me think it's A I trying to patch A I vibe coding.

@Dc9675​ same here, i just got yet another DM (which are ridiculously sporadic, it's not like i'm going to sit around babysitting my DMs to wait for someone to reply in 2.21 hours or 4.35 hours or whenever!) which says they want to open yet another ticket.  i have cleared cookies, cleared cache, reset modem (i questioned them what that could possibly do for this issue), tried on one computer on windows 10, on one computer on windows 11, and on a phone, and NOTHING works!  i can always see the current week's offers, but when clicking to redeem, get that error, and i watched just now and did not see anything pop up briefly in address bar like you mentioned.  they obviously have something messed up and NEED to fix it.

If anyone wants to create their own ticket instead of dealing with the DM; I believe if you are logged in and go to xfinity.com/support/membership/ (add the web stuff at the beginning if necessary), you can still submit a ticket through there.  Maybe if a lot of tickets are created someone will actually look at the code to see what is tripping the eligibility check instead of having AI agents run in circles.
