Why am I getting "Oops! Looks like you're on the go" in Microsoft Rewards?

So I'm just trying to complete my daily rewards, and I get this message. I use a VPN so I don't know if that's the problem, but I need to use a VPN because Czechia gets literally 1 daily reward A MONTH!!! And the message also sometimes pops up when I'm not using a VPN. So can someone help me get rid of the message? If not, then at least add daily rewards for Czechia daily and not monthly.

    i am not using a vpn, i have no suspicious software on my computer ,i have only ever connected to Microsoft rewards from this computer, my account is secure as far as i can tell, so you tell me what it is because its over my head at this point, the only thing i can put it down to is your security is blocking the rewards window from recognising my location and computer the only thing that has changed at my end is i went from wired broadband to fibre optic broadband nothing else has changed at my location same computer using Microsoft defender same location same account beats the hell out of me, ok it has to be Bing because i accessed my Bing account on google chrome and it worked absolutely fine no problems so bing is actualy blocking my location and saying it has a wrong location

    Same here:

    No VPN, I'm based in UK, IP address is UK. I've not travelled abroad since 2020.

    This nonsense needs fixing.

    I redeemed all my points in Canada. How come it always say that?

    It sucks because it's breaking my streak. Some further research learns that this problem occurs more frequently, even for users who allegedly didn't change a damn thing about their configuration. I suspect this is a glitch in the servers and some confirmed the problem fixed itself the next day. Too late my streak will be reset by then, again. Sigh
