Microsoft Rewards not giving points for PC search or Edge Bonus as advertised.

I cleared cache, reset default, updated, on/off, log in/out, points not showing up 24-hrs later, no response from Microsoft Support for 10+ days after multiple attempts. Microsoft Support recognize(d) first ticket but won't respond to first ticket. Given the above information, what is the best way to solve this puzzle? A 365 Subscriber and Outlook user for decades. No X-Box.

    Hmmm. 5250 points for $5=1050.

    Throttle down to 3 searches every 15 minutes...that's over 6 hours wait time for 5 bucks. Looks like daily set may be the only time to waste these days.

    Ya it is massively annoying, and one person even pointed out how it makes no sense since it gives them "activity."

    I mean their things are already the worst, google chrome and google are beyond better. They should be wanting to make it better to keep driving people to them, not away... (Plus, it defeats the thought once again, on maybe they want the search function to be "more properly used", as its already garbage so it does not matter).

    Appears all searches are being modified to restrict points. "More activities" dropping from 10 to 1?

    100 searches result in no point increase.

    Yesterday, after maxing out on PC and mobile points, later in the day both point totals reflected 0.

    Could this be a method used to herd us cats toward the Start app? At least the daily read on Start "reflects" points...so far.
