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.

Super dumb and petty. I'm able to earn 20 points after like ten searches and then it stops counting them at all for the rest of the day.
same something is just broken since they messed with the system
They changed something where searches only count if you wait maybe 20-30 seconds in between each search, I think to keep people from getting all their daily points at once.
You used to be able to search for something, go to images, and open about 10 tabs and get everything done in 5 minutes for the day but I guess they want to try and force more natural searches for the points.
Idk why they would try and hide what they are doing because it's obvious the algorithm changed.
It doesn't matter how long I wait to "search" I am not earning points for searches. Once I redeem my points for a gift card, if that even works, I am done with Bing.
They only reward us for 3 searches every 15 minutes now. With 20 mobile searches and 30 desktop at 12 searches an hour it will take over 4 hours of constantly going to a screen. It’s definitely not worth it anymore.
