Dear Valued Panini Customer:



This is an important message from Panini America concerning certain open redemptions you may have in your account. This pertains to:

cards of low to mid-level value (as defined by Panini in its sole discretion)
open redemptions for these low to mid-level cards where the service ticket was created on or before December 31, 2017

PLEASE NOTE: THIS WILL NOT AFFECT HIGH VALUE PANINI CARDS.



For open redemptions that fit these two criteria: you still have an opportunity to exchange these redemptions for Panini Reward Points. Each month Reward Points releases special items for their members. Reward Points is a customer loyalty program where you can exchange points for unique and valuable memorabilia, Panini cards and exclusive packs.



For more information on the Panini Reward Points program please click on the link below.



Panini Rewards



Please be advised that starting on September 30, 2022, all redemptions for cards of low to mid-level value, where the service ticket was opened on or before December 31, 2017, will no longer be Reward Points eligible. On September 30, 2022, Panini will begin to fulfill redemptions on cards that meet the two criteria by sending you, the customer, a card(s) of equal or greater value. At that point Panini will consider all these redemptions fulfilled and the service tickets will be closed.



PLEASE NOTE: THIS WILL NOT AFFECT HIGH VALUE PANINI CARDS.



Remember, the deadline to claim Reward Points for these open redemptions is September 30, 2022.



Thank you,

Panini America, Inc.

So basically they're giving us about two whole months to trade in redemptions that people have been waiting for 5+ years to receive, and the only thing they're offering is crappy Rewards points?

So worst case scenario, if you don't happen to see that notice, they just pick a terrible card for you, and best case scenario if you do see the notice and take action, your only option is a bunch of filler stuff that nobody wants from like 2013?

Wow ... just ... wow.

I have always assumed that nothing that Panini can do would surprise me anymore, and then they do.

What an awful, awful joke of a company.

Then again, I guess it's "good" they're finally giving you ... something?

Could be worse - they could be sending Panini Points cards if you don't respond

At least a card doesn't have negative value!

The other part of this scam is that you know damn well they won't waive the shipping charges if you choose Rewards points to replace your redemptions, which are supposed to include free shipping.

They think they're slick, but they're just clueless and inept.

[rjcj2017]

Hopefully these are starting to move so that they can get back to damage replacements.

[rjcj2017]

Has anyone taken Panini up on this program, and if so, what did you get?

[rjcj2017]

I'm now at a year-plus on damage replacements.

Let's go, Panini.
