Welcome to the official SD Coca-Cola.com/offers / Formerly My Coke Rewards Discussion Thread, proud to talk rewards since 2006! (We often discuss Coke promotions, (texting games, sweepstakes, etc.), which use Coke/MCR/codes or membership info to signup.)

Site: https://us.coca-cola.com/offers

A toast to My Coke Rewards, the Greatest Rewards Program in History! Applause

Coca-Cola.com Offers FAQ, (Formerly My Coke Rewards [MCR]):

- How may I contact them?
  • Phone: 800-520-2653 to reach an agent directly
  • email address: [email protected]
  • Ask Chip, your virtual agent, (formerly Allysa and Hank) on the site footer under the CONTACT US link.
- When does the promotion end?

There is no specific end date for the program.

- Inactivity

Each particular Coke promotion may have its own activity clause.

- Participating Products:
Barq's, Coke, Coke Zero, Dasani, Diet Coke, Fanta, Fresca, Mellow Yellow, Minute Maid, Powerade & Powerade Zero, Fuze, Pibb, Sprite, Seagram's, Tab.

- Values:
Point values per code are no more, All codes are equal value, but check promotion. Check packaging for a MyCokeRewards Label! Not all Coke packages have the MCR logo, (i.e. 6-pack w/glass bottles).
However, in Coke's Give Program to schools, codes still have different values to school donations, see wiki below!

- List of Accepted MCR Letter & Number Code Characters & Character Substition

There are 25 total characters, (letters or numbers only), that are accepted in 14-character MCR codes, (out of 36 available, A-Z, and 1-0). Five of the characters may also be input as substitutions for other similar-looking characters. Either upper- or lower-case letters are accepted. The available characters are:

Letters: B F H J K L M N P R T V W X (No C D E G* I O* Q S* U* Y Z)
Numbers: 4 5 6 7 9 0 (No 1 2 3 8*)

* The five accepted substitute characters for similar-looking characters:
  • B = 8
  • V = U
  • 5 = S
  • 6 = G
  • 0 = O (Zero, '0', is the officially accepted character according to MCR error messages; letter 'O' is the substitute.)

- Where do you find all the codes?
Here are a few ways...
- drink soda
- participate/lurk on this board
- ask friends/family/neighbors/co-workers to save
- dumpster diving
- jumping out of cars upon seeing flaps on the side of the road
- referring a friend on the site
- ask Maids to save for those who travel
- ask recycling centers to save
- purchase on eBay
- sporting events, zoos, parks, etc
- make trades
- become buddies with vending machine stockers
- become the vending machine stocker

If worried about fraudulent activity need to ditch the sip and scan and require codes. Made it so everyone and their brother could play without buying anything, and then complain about fraudulent activity.

exactly .... should've made it fair and require distinct codes so it's a level playing field Frown

Update on the Fall Football prepaid card...after several emails back and forth will Coca Cola Customer care, I finally received an envelope with a Visa Gift Card...for $15! I'd won and was waiting on my $10 card. So if you're still missing that particular prize, it's worth it to be persistent.
Congrats!

I am still missing a $25 Visa I won in that promo so I contacted them tonight via a form submission. Hope it's not too painful to deal with them. I have never contacted them about a missing prize.

Thanks for updating so I know I need to contact them.

On chrome right click and select search google for image. Just right click the image on google and save from there.
I'll try that. It's weird that this issue just started for me after not having it occur before.

Open with a program called Irfanview. It is free on line. Once open it will ask to rename the picture and it will open normally.
Oh wow. I remember that program and had no idea it was still around. I used it years ago.

Something tells me you wouldn't be in favor of a change that not only got rid of Sip and Scan, but also required some sort of proof of purchase with your cap codes. Because again, you are not trying to be fair to everyone...you are only saying that because you have an endless supply of codes that are not from products that you purchase...which is equally fraudulent as far as Coke is concerned. You are only upset because you no longer as one of the few that can abuse the system. It is the "fraudulent activity" of people like you that is the reason why MCR no longer exists in the first place. And why it went from requiring 8 caps to get a free bottle of Coke or Powerade to more than 18 at the end.

I don't care that you or anyone else did it. But don't act holier than thou complaining about the current system that allows others to abuse the program the same amount as you have done for more than a decade.

For those who mailed in for entries in the Sprite game and didn't receive them - I emailed them today to see what's up (didn't feel like calling). I'll report back if I actually hear anything laugh out loud

I'm not complaining. I just saying it's funny that Coke would say people abused the system when they made it easier to happen. I'm OK with the sip and scan, easier than entering codes. To say I abused the system because I used cap codes from sodas I didn't buy is laughable here. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. LOL

One other thing, those that have been around here for a while can verify that I have given away a lot codes over the years. Used to give away 100 or more every Tuesday. Stopped because I don't have as many, and with Trump cracking down on illegal immigration it's hard to find the Mexican kids to type them. LOL

In your defense, Mike, using Coca-Cola codes that are from products purchased by someone else is NOT fraudulent as far as the Coca-Cola company is concerned. When I started participating in MCR, I had access to a lot of caps and flaps at bottle redemption centers. I called Coke to find out if it was OK with the company for me to use other people's caps and flaps from products that they purchased where it was clear they were not going to use those caps and flaps themselves. The lady who answered me said yes, not in a reluctant or neutral way, but in an enthusiastic way which surprised me. It was along the lines of "Oh yes, of course it's fine! Feel free to do so!" With permission from the company itself, it is a legitimate practice, not a fraudulent one.

I am not rendering an opinion as to whether it is fraudulent or not, and if someone were offering to collect caps and give them to me I wouldn't hesitate to use them. Probably half of my caps are from family members and the other half is from my personal consumption. All are used to the benefit of everyone in the family. But yes I would definitely accept codes from a friend or neighbor in a heart beat.

That being said, I personally would never bank on anything ONE CSR said over the phone. Not at all uncommon to have multiple people ask the same exact question and get different answers from Coke and pretty much every company out there. I recently had a CSR tell me she was going to send me something and when I didn't receive it I called back and there was no record of what she agreed to.

So as far as rules go, I only rely on what is in writing. Even e-mail responses are often different depending on who asks/responds, but at least that is something you can fall back on.
