How to Solve LEGO Insiders Points Redemption Issues
You've been diligently collecting LEGO Insiders points, ready to redeem for that coveted reward, only to find out you can't? It’s frustrating, but don’t worry! Here are five steps to help you troubleshoot and identify possible reasons why you can't redeem your LEGO Insiders points, ensuring you can smoothly claim your rewards.
1. Double-Check Your LEGO Account Login
First and foremost, make sure you're logged into the correct account associated with your LEGO Insiders membership. It’s an easy mistake, especially if you have accounts on the LEGO website, the LEGO Life app, or third-party platforms.
Tips:
- If you've forgotten your username or password, you can use the "Forgot Username" or "Forgot Password" features on the LEGO website.
- Once logged in, you can see your points balance in the top right corner of the LEGO website.
2. Ensure Your LEGO Insiders Account is Activated
If you’re a new member or registered your Insiders account at a LEGO store or a partner store, you need to activate your account as per the instructions in the welcome email. Only activated accounts can earn and redeem points.
Tips:
- If you didn’t receive the welcome email, complete the registration on the LEGO website. Sometimes, the email may land in your spam folder, so be sure to check there.
- After activation, you’ll receive an email with a link to your digital membership card.
3. Check Your Points Balance
Different rewards require varying amounts of points. Before redeeming, always confirm that your points balance is sufficient. Finding out you don’t have enough points at checkout can be a letdown!

4. Is the Reward Expired or Out of Stock?
LEGO regularly updates its rewards, and some are available in limited quantities on a first-come, first-served basis. If the reward you want is expired or out of stock, you’ll have to wait for the next opportunity.
Tips:
- Frequently visit the LEGO Rewards Center page to check the latest rewards.
- Follow LEGO's official social media accounts or subscribe to the LEGO newsletter to stay updated on reward releases:
5. Other Potential Issues: System Glitches and Account Problems
Beyond these common issues, a few specific scenarios might cause problems with point redemption:
- System Glitches: Occasionally, the LEGO website may experience system issues, preventing point redemption. Try again later or at a different time.
- Account Issues: If your account has suspicious activity, such as fraud or violating LEGO Insiders terms, it might be suspended or frozen, preventing point redemption. If you suspect any account issues, contact LEGO Customer Service.
6. Seek Help from LEGO Customer Service
If you’ve tried everything and still can’t solve the issue, it’s time to reach out to LEGO Customer Service. They can help resolve the issue based on your specific situation.
Tips:
- Before contacting support, have your LEGO Insiders account details ready, such as your username, email address, and membership card number.
- Provide a detailed description of the problem to help customer service resolve it quickly.
From my experience: Stay patient! Customer service is usually very helpful, but resolving issues takes time, so be patient and wait for a response.
