Heads-up for those of you who signed up for the Prevacid Perks Program that I posted about here! If you did indeed sign up for the program and enter a UPC Code, you may have been wondering if and when your perk was going to arrive (I originally thought it was supposed to arrive within a 24 hour period!).

Well, I am happy to report that your perk should have arrived or be arriving shortly! If you haven’t already, be sure to check your Inbox (or spam or trash folders) for an email with the Subject Line “Your Perks Are In The Works” from the email address prevacid24hrus.brand@novartis.com. I personally received this email late last night and was able to snag my $5 Starbucks Gift Card right away. Come back and let us know if you received a similar email as well!

(Thanks, Vishnu!)

    I got the code but it is not working. I called prevacid but they told me to call starbuck. Called starbuck but they told me to call Prevacid. This is such a pain. Please let me know if anyone has solution.

      I had the same problem too. You need to be putting in the code that is on the certificate you get when you click on the link. It’s not the “secret code” they sent you in the email. I know that sounds kinda weird, but hope that makes sense Linna 😉 Please try this and let me know if you have success!

        Hi! I had the same problem as Linna and but i didnt get what you ment when you said ‘You need to be putting in the code that is on the certificate you get when you click on the link.’ Sorry can you please explain where the code is. Thank you so much 🙂

        • linna

          Thanks bunny for your help 🙂 I clicked on the link that they sent and put the secret code in CAPITAL letter and it works fine!!! OMG I spent more than 2 hours to find the answer for that. I thought I was smart but I guess not 🙂

    • kara

      Make sure you are putting in the code with out spaces. It arrives in your email with the spaces.

    Ironic that a heartburn med company is encouraging coffee consumption;) (yes i know they sell other things too but let’s be real, that’s their main item)
    -coffee is a widely known cause of heartburn

  3. Laura

    Still didn’t get mine – hopefully soon!

    • Raymond

      I never got my codes for month of August, September 2014. Anyone with this problem?

  4. Vishnu

    I clicked on the link and put in the code , it then gave me Starbucks gift card number and code , which I was able to transfer funds to my mobile Starbucks card. I did it on my iPhone. Hth some one and made sense. My balance on the mobile card got updated to 5$ more than what previously existed.

  5. mark

    still havent gotten mine, anyone else?

    • Sunny

      Still haven’t gotten mine either.

  6. shopngeek

    Yea! I got one! Thanks for the heads up~

  7. molly

    Did you guys know anything about burgerking $5 gift card? I have not received it yet 🙁 Let me know if you know anything. I hope we will get it soon.

    • J

      Me either! When I contacted them they said my email was not in their system to receive the gift card, which I highly doubt because the screen said I would receive the ecard in 2 business days. Not too happy with bk!

    • Rona

      yes, I received mine but I know several people who did not.

  8. Amber

    Molly: I was told by Sportscenter that the Burger King g.c. was for the first 10,000 people and sorry. Well, I’m pretty sure I was, but oh well. I too have NOT received the Prevacid Perk. 🙁

  9. Linda

    I received the $5.00 gift card. About 4-5 days earlier, I received an email that the UPC code was incorrect and they could not process my request. They apparently had a system problem since I didn’t do anything to fix ‘their issue’.

  10. Michele Weaver

    I just checked..still nothing. I signed up July 18. I wonder if I will ever get it.

  11. pharmchick

    Id gladly trade my $5 BK for a $5 starbucks if anyones interested 🙂

  12. Alyssea

    Is it too late to enter a code and get the card?

  13. kt

    I got an e-mail today that says that my perk is waiting, but I never got a redemption coded? They e-mail stated that I would get the code in the mail? How did you guys get your starbucks code, via e-mail or snail mail?

    • Claudia

      Same here but waiting where? I checked the website and I can’t find it. I didn’t get the email that others got with the code.

    • Migdalia

      Same here.Got 2 emails actually.Still no code 🙁

      • Mark

        Me too

  14. VISHNU

    kt , it comes in the email, with a link for redemption and secret code. when u click on the link and put it the secret code, you get a electronic starbucks gift card with a card number and a code.

    for those who didnt get it…..
    I re did the rewards redemption on prevacid rewards site yesterday, and got the gift card today. so I am thinking, for some reason if the previous time didn’t go thru due to high traffic, although they said that it did, it might just help to redo it. Doesn’t hurt:)

    • Sunny

      i got the comfirmation that I was IN the prevacid program BUT I still haven’t received my gc. Do you think I will get it soon because I’m in the program, which means they have my request for the gc…or should I just try again? Thanks so much!! 🙂

  15. paula

    Nothing for me yet and I did not get the Burger King one either, oh well:(

  16. Lynn l

    I DID receive my email with my secret code, so it DOES COME. I didn’t think it would. Hope all who participated receives their $5 credit too!

    • Sunny

      When did you enter? Still waiting for mine. 🙂

  17. frugalfemme

    Thanks for the heads up! I would have never searched for it without your post.

  18. Elizabeth

    It seems that some of us are being sent emails saying “check the code you received in the MAIL” but we’ve never gotten the code! I’ve received two of these emails so far, telling me to redeem my code, but I’ve never received a code. I emailed the company to get this straightened out. It’s annoying to receive email after email “reminding” me to do something I can’t!

    • Mandy

      Come back and let us know if they reply because I got the same email, no code. I’m not really sure what else I can do except wait.

  19. Sunny

    Still haven’t received mine (entered july 17) ….I even re-entered yesterday & still haven’t gotten anything….anyone else? 🙁

    • trippy79

      I’m experiencing the same thing, entered when this was first posted, no e-mail response, re-entered again the other day when this was posted the second time, no e-mail yet. =(

    • Fabrice

      I got it today

  20. lacie

    I entered and it said it was valadating…. I never did get an email with one in it and I have checked both mails (junk and inbox)

    • Sunny

      same here… 🙁

  21. Mark

    I got one but my sister who also singed up did not? Btw the addresses were different

  22. KF

    I got an e-mail today that says …. “my perk is waiting”, never got a redemption coded for the Starbuck GC and the Burger King one either … 🙁

    • sara

      I got an e-mail today saying the same thing… 3 of the same e-mail to be exact! I never got anything other than a welcome e-mail after I joined so I thought I did something wrong. Hmmm… I think I am going to e-mail customer service and have them re-send my code.

      • Sunny

        ^^^^ same issue here…bummer! @ Sara: please tell us how it goes with customer service! Thanks in advance.

  23. Migdalia

    Yay!!! I had already given up but my reward finally arrived! I don’t know if its from signing up the first time or from the second time I did it.But I got it and transfered to my starbucks card:)

    • Laura

      I finally got mine, too! 🙂

  24. Fabrice

    Got mine today.
    Just do it again if it didn’t work you should get it in 1-2 days

  25. Sunny

    Why can’t we choose starbucks as a “perk” anymore? Are they out? When will they restock? 🙁

  26. Dave

    The question is where do I find the secret code? Apparently, I never got one when I actually received an email “Your Perk Are In The Works” and said “Thank you for redeeming a perk”. I wasn’t sure if I’ve actually redeem it since I never got $5 Starbucks card. 🙁

  27. Darcey

    So I got the email and loaded the 5 dollars onto my registered card. Loaded fine and my card said the balance was now 5 dollars. Went tobisebit and the barista at starbucks said the card was empty so I paid 5 bucks out of pocket. I was pissed. So I decided to print out the certificate and went to use it again and again the barista said it was empty so again I paid 5 bucks out I pocket:/ I’m so mad right now. That’s ten bucks and change that I wouldn’t have normally spent:/ where so I get prevacids contact info???
