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.

Same with me it’s started like a week ago very annoying don’t know how to fix it
you previously could do searches one right after the other ... there is now a buffer put in place that you have to wait at least 5 seconds if not more before performing the next search ... that's on all platforms, mobile and desktop ...
they also, if you didn't notice, removed the 20 daily points for using *bing* search
also i've noticed on the desktop that some things that used to qualify for search points no longer do ... i.e. the "delicious delights* activity ... no points for clicking through the different foods
found this too
Microsoft explains changes as Rewards Program loses daily Edge points (windowslatest.com)
Microsoft nerfed it, pretty sure theyre beginning to faze rewards out by now
Yeah I've been having same issue and I contacted support for this and a bunch of other issues I've been having and this was the only one they have actually responded to, but they still didn't even give me a full explanation just this. Which just says they've changed things but not what the changes were.
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
