So yea, the reward support team never replies back, I cannot redeem anything (literally wasted my whole hours on this)

who agrees? this is seriously unbelievable! I thought reward actually works.

and it literally says "Theres an issue with your acc or order" infact, theres no issue with my microsoft account.

Any one help please?

    Yes i totally agree Microsoft rewards is a scam. I had many points in my rewards account. i regularly entered in many sweep stakes and spinning the wheel for total 6ooo points each spin costed 200 points (30 times) still what i noticed was the wheel constantly stopped at only one point. given in reality if one spins any wheel for 30 times the wheel would not stop at one specific point.

    yes Microsoft rewards are totally scam.

    I usuaully dont have any issues with microsoft rewards. If i do all the activities each day, which include the mobile searches and activities, the searches and activities in the xbox app, the game pass quests. and then also on mobbile you open the xbox app, play a level of jewel, and play a pc game on the laptop, and that gives you an average of 175 points a day. I say average because the check in points are 5 the 1st day, 10 the second, 15 the 3rd, 20 the 4th, and 25 on the 5th day, and then the cycle repeats so it averages out to 15 points a day. For playing the level of jewel you get 60 points, 30 for playing, and then 30 bonus points if you are a game pass subscriber and have over 7 friends on your xbox account. For the pc game i usually play a hand of soliataire, and you get 100 points, 50 for playing and 50 bonus. Usually get $25 to $30 a month free xbox gift cards. You also get 40 points for every dollar you spend, even if you use gift card you got with points, so you actually get 1000 points back if you spend $25 gift card. And on some months i spend a lot on xbox games, movie rentals and purchases, ill get a lot more points. So i have no problem with microsoft rewards program, i get over $300 a year free xbox game cards, and the searches take minutes, literally. I have a system of what i click on to go through it fast.

    My problem is with microsoft cashback program. Its a friggin scam. Most purchases, including from microsoft, dont post the rewards theyre supposed to. If you do get any money it usually has a problem sending it to your paypal. And i made a pretty big purchase from superherostuff.com, had over $16 PENDING in microsoft rewards for weeks, then it disappeared and never posted. I didnt return or cancel anything, which is what the system said is normally why money disappears. So i write to the customer sevice, i told them the purchase was made weeks ago, git the stuff, money disappeared after waiting about 3 weeks for it pending, i specifically stressed that the order was not cancelled and nothing was returned. When they finally get back to me, idk how long later, like 2 weeks maybe, the friggin guy says usually when that happens it because you returned or cancelled the order and the merchant reports it. WT actual F? He didnt even read what i said. Ive spent thousands of dollars that shouldve been racking up cashback rewards, 2% i think it is from microsoft purchases alone. The most i ever got was just over $4 and i couldnt even send it to paypal. So i quit the program. Its a scam. But microsoft rewards is good for me. Free money and all in all takes about 15 minutes q day 5o get most of the available points. Sometimes the 50bpoints for getting an achievement in a game pass game takes a little longer, but even if you dont do that one and do everything else you get over 600 points a day, and many days its signifigantly more
