Why am I not getting rewards points for searches anymore?

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.

    Got message from Microsoft today.

    Bing points have been slowed down.You only get 12points ie 4 searches every 15 minutes. So as far as they are concerned you will get your full points on PC and mobile phone but you are going to take along time to get the by having to wait every 15mins.

    Just got hit with this today. I'm stuck at 70 out of 150 points. So far, other users posting here have been far more informative than Microsoft. MS seems to have a communications problem.

    Also just read on another post that they also have a cool down period where now we get 3 searches for 15 points then have to wait 15 minutes before you can earn any more points
