Yesterday my searches stopped counting after 90 points and today nothing has counted. Not for PC or mobile. Why aren't searches counting anymore. I'm ready to cancel Game Pass Ultimate, uninstall Edge, and change my default search engine away from Bing.
A program that grants points for using Bing search, which users can redeem for gift cards, sweepstakes entries, or charitable donations.

They want us to do the work for them.. and then they want to screw us on our time.. another company wants our help and then repay with only frustration and more stress.. This will bite them back in the future.. My mobile searches are just as messed up and the PC searches.
I found this thread as I discovered I am no longer earning any points through searching through Bing and went looking for answers.
I can search with Bing pretty fast, and admittedly, it does feel like I’m missing the point of Bing searches. Unfortunately, Microsoft has made it so edging (funny) gives no point bonus. I don’t understand the sudden change of plans, but it definitely seems as though the system is rigged.
Around thanksgiving time they restricted my account and told me I was using search bots, which is untrue. I wouldn't even know where to begin if I even wanted to use search bots. And talking to 3 other people I know that use bing they said the same thing. They restricted their account for no reason. Since then the daily searches haven't been working. And the extra links for points under "more activities" on the dashboard are all only +1 or +2 points. I think they got tired of giving people gift cards around the holidays and blocked a bunch of people for no reason.
