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.

Bing | Microsoft Rewards
Bing | Microsoft Rewards

A program that grants points for using Bing search, which users can redeem for gift cards, sweepstakes entries, or charitable donations.

    Ok, I've done that, but do you have any idea if an algorithm has been put in place that now judges which searches count or don't count? The behavior of the system has changed drastically in the last few days.

    The algorithm remains the same, but to check if there was a problem with the account or count, only Rewards support can check.

    There's no problem with the account. I get credit on Xbox for those rewards and the Game Pass quests. I get points for the news and the quizes and polls on the app. Searches is the only thing that has gone haywire. Something has changed. It's not counting searches the way it did just two days ago.
