I've been doing microsoft rewards for around 2 years and I've gotten consistent points, but since last month Microsoft has been slowly degrading how many points I can get.
For example, they've been only giving 1 POINT now for each task I do instead of 10 points, basically no monthly punch cards, and they just deleted my edge search points.
Is this on purpose to limit how many points older accounts with more points can get?
(I dont want a "Thank you for your opinion, we are going to look into this issue" robot response please)
A program that grants points for using Bing search, which users can redeem for gift cards, sweepstakes entries, or charitable donations.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Yeah same here, was grinding a lot of points for a couple of months and then some kind of limiter shows up for no apparent reason. Scummy corpo system I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Can't expect much from microsoft
@Microsoft SEE THIS MANS COMMENT AND UPDATE YOU'RE MICROSOFT POINTS SYSTEM I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET MY REWARD AND THEN FINALLY REALISED WHEN I SEARCH SOMETHING UP I DON'T GET MY POINTS IT DIDN'T GO UP TO 90 FOR ME IT WENT UP TO 9 YES 9!!!
299th same question and still nothing much has changed. The delay between searches (the cooldown) is also extremely disappointing and takes away all the fun of racking-up points.
In my opinion they will have to start rewarding the users of Microsoft Rewards more (like before) because after reading most of the comments, I think a majority of the users are not happy and they are thinking of quitting the program because it is not so rewarding anymore and requires time and effort. This will lead to a decrease in the number of people using Edge because everyone already knows that Google Chrome is so much faster and easier to use.
Personally it is now not worth messing with to me. It will take so long to get enough points it is now a waste of my time. They have reduced the amount of points to the point it’s time to look at alternative browsers and what they have to offer in comparison. Hope they reverse this and figure out they can reduce a good product and program to a point it has the reverse effect than what was initially intended.
Today they removed the search points completely (at least for me). Its not just a visual bug but i don't receive any points searching.
