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.

I did that and I still get that same damn error message: This alias cannot be added to your account. Choose a different alias. Now what am I supposed to do?
I was having this issue for the past few days, and clearing my browser's cookies and cache fixed the issue, thanks!
Just as a followup, not sure it's simply that they changed something or if it's because I updated the Bing app on the phone but it seems to be counting searches there now. If it lasts. Guess we'll see tomorrow.
Oh yeah, also maybe related maybe not, but a friend has all kinds of trouble with MS security hoops yesterday, and today my laptop made me dance through them. So, maybe they are doing, something ?
The timing is especially strange, with Microsoft badgering us to shop, shop, shop! You'd think they'd roll these changes out in January, and also put a notification up on the Rewards page that the program will be changing.
