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.

Wow! I just got a notice that they will only reward for 3 searches after a 15 minute cool-down. Well, there goes my daily sessions of bing searches. Wow!

It doesn't matter if I wait 15 minutes or 15 hours I still don't get points for searches. Microsoft really dropped the ball on Bing rewards. Once I finally get enough points for a reward I am going to close my account. It is now taking far too long and too much time is being spent for a $5 reward.
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.
If that's true, that's not full points because they aren't counting a lot of searches.
They need to make it clear in the rewards page because the 5-points per search thing is a literal lie currently.
They do it on purpose to get their user numbers up to make their search engine seem better than it is. In reality, it’s garbage. They can’t get a simple app, search engine, rewards program to work properly, yet they are venturing into the world of ai lol.
