Lifetime Rewards - delays again???

I earned the Hustlin' Hero award on June 1 ... nothing received so far. Emailed Lyft on August 6, usual cut-and paste message "You should receive your replacement reward(s) within 3-6 business weeks!" yada yada yada ... still nothing received so far. So is this going to be like the Steady Pedaler fiasco where I waited over a year?

  • Hey everyone! Just wanted to provide a quick update here.

     

    I've reached out to each of you via email with an update on the status of your reward shipments and requesting address confirmation from a few of you. If you have any specific questions, please respond directly in that email thread.

    I also like to add that I have never received one of my rewards. I'm a power Angel now and I haven't received a single one even though I've filled out all the forms and verified my address. They're just not sending them.

    I got notified of my PowerAngel award in JUNE of 2023 (!!) and still received nothing. I resubmitted the mail-out form about a year after not receiving anything, and messaged Citibike via Twitter/X, but what are my next steps? I find it VERY difficult to believe this reward has been on back order for over a year.

      I have received my Joy Rider and Casual Cruser rewards!  Thanks jenniferrp!  I'm just waiting on my Steady Pedaler now.

      Just want to give an update that I've received the reward gift as of last week or the week before. Support may have somehow fat-fingered a 6-digit (!) zip code for my address, instead of the correct 5-digit zip code, when they asked me to confirm my address in the final follow up. Thanks for your help in this, jenniferrp! Best wishes to everyone else in this thread.

      Hi

      Just checking in.

      We appreciate the award program and Lyft's commitment to the Angels program.

       

      What fun. And for some lucky cities, a great opportunity to put some cash into people's pockets.

       

      Having said that, we sure wish this free stuff mailout would be resolved. If only because it casts a doubt on the corporation's ability to run It's operations effectively  

       

      Thank you.

    Hey zswapsny and other folks in this thread! The delay in receiving y'alls rewards sounds confusing and frustrating so I want to help get to the bottom of it for each of you. I'm personally diving into the rewards you've all stated you're missing as I see a handful of you have already contacted Support. I'll provide a general update here once I've gotten with the team on this and will then follow up via email with more account and reward specific details for each of you.

    Lyft is failing on all these Lifetime Awards over and over again. Guess we (and their shareholders) are the schmucks.

    I got to Casual Cruiser at the end of April, reached out about it mid-July, got that 3-6 week response... and just reached out again after waiting 8 weeks. Will see if they have any additional information to give.

    Hello zswapsny 

    I earned that level in June as well but haven't received it yet. 

    I Waited more than a year to get the key and was disappointed it wasn't white as advertised... So maybe sometime next year we'll receive a really cool pair of hot pink gloves 😅🤣😆

    I'm yet to receive any of my "lifetime rewards" and I'm over 2500 points.
