Is it possible to stack the birthday perk with the buddy pass in a single purchase?
Both me and my spouse were born on April. She got the email, but nothing for me.
Bday was 2 days ago, no email. Spoke to Aeroplan rep today who confirmed by reading me terms that this is a targeted offer. She did wish me a belated bday as consolation 🙂
Birthday was early April, 35K elite member, no email
Like others that I know, I failed to get this benefit on/near/around my birthday, despite AC clearly knowing that it was indeed my birthday (‘confetti’ raining down on the home screen for few days) and being an Aeroplan member pretty much forever.
Sadly, another example of AC setting a customer expectation that they are organizationally incapable of delivering with any consistency. Oh well, maybe next year.
I just checked my profile and my birthday is listed on it. Like others, I never received the birthday email.
I did not get any offers (my birthday was earlier this month) and I receive their marketing emails. Who can I call at Aeroplan about this? My experience by emailing them on other issues is an acknowledgment of receipt of the email but nothing else.
ymmv, but i have faced various issues with the implementation of the aeroplan birthday offer.
for all accounts, email marketing notifications settings are allowed, but on 2 family accounts no birthday perk email at all. 2 other accounts get the email, but when you click the last option for 100 simple points. you get an email confirmation, “Congrats! Your Aeroplan points will be deposited in your account within 10 days.” but it never shows up. Ok months later, I call up aeroplan customer service because I had an actually issue to follow up on, I bring up the birthday points offer with regards to all my family accounts, and get a written response “we do not send the birthday perk email to all our members. we have verified your accounts and we have not sent the email to either emails….the option is 250 points and it would have been credited automatically…the email you received was not from Aeroplan….we regret the confusion”.
come on aeroplan, you really think i’m making this shit up to scam you for 100 points.
I got the same email, selected 25% discount on Air Canada base fare, but that discount did not work. Then I tried again with 100 points, got the confirmation screen, but those points have never arrived.
I received this email on my birthday, and I used option 1 to save almost $400 on a round trip flight for two people within Canada. Without the discount the trip was $1873, and with the discount it was $1485. Definitely a nice present from Air Canada 🙂
