AARP endorsing companies who charge more for their services than other companies in the same business, One example I called Hartford Insurance Company for a vehicle insurance coverage, they gave me a bid that was close to twice as much as two competitive companies, that said Hartford is endorsed by AARP who many would think are looking out for AARP members welfare, it seems that perhaps AARP kick back is too much, this message has reached AARP members and it seems there are many more companies who have AARP endorsement and also charge more than their competitors
