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?

    Update on honest experience

    This is an update message.

    Turns out that you can't use Microsoft Rewards Abroad. So if you were to make a search on edge abroad and collect points from it (done authomatically) you will be disqualified for using it abroad.

    How the hell do Microsoft expect you to work if you for instance moved abroad for a holiday and wanted to gain rewards?

    Frankly the fact that when I open chrome Edge has a pop saying to use it for a better experience is ridiculous.

    I used edge every single day for a month and it pains me that this is the standard Microsoft is willing to go to for it's customers.

    Very dissapointed.

    I agreed man they are full of scam just on redeeming points ask you to add a phone number but form Microsoft they don't wants you to add when contact support they don't focus on your problem just suggest you contact rewards that is no response from them in normally 2-3 weeks and that response from rewards is also not helpful, the support team from Microsoft account never let you add a phone number and they just trying to block your ways just to go scam on people by calling it Microsoft rewards. its heartbreaking that a big organization is scamming with people mostly with those in underdeveloped countries. It's shameful Microsoft shameful

    it 100% a scam they getting all your information and reselling it to other companies. I needed to upgrade my computer ram was saving my points for it, now I cannot redeem $40 gift cards. I highly Not Recommend you not doing Reward. Also the search is horrible.

    NO KIDDING...MS are getting your information, they ALL do one way or another...Look for some of the remedies others have posted here and elsewhere like reddit. They work for some, but not for others (like myself.)
