I can't add a phone number to my microsoft account on microsoft rewards.

I finally solved this issue for myself so I'm just providing what worked in case it helps anyone else:

The problem was that I had my phone number set as a profile alias on an old Hotmail account I didn't use anymore. Once I was able to regain access to that account, I removed the phone number and was able to successfully add it to my current @outlook.com account that I use.

What's crazy is that I had many contacts with Microsoft support about this and no one could figure it out/help. I am kindly requesting Microsoft send me $100k for my consulting fee. Thank you.

Hello Aronas,

Good to see you in Microsoft Community.

I suggest you try adding the phone number again by following the steps below:

1. Sign in to Manage how you sign in to Microsoft. If you’re having issues signing in to your Microsoft account, see Microsoft account help for more info.
2. Select Add emailor Add phone number.
3. Follow the instructions to add a new email address or phone number to your Microsoft account aliases.

I recommend that you visit the above link in your phone's browser (using cellular, not WiFi) to add a phone number, which theoretically excludes other distractions and allows the same ISP (Internet Service Provider) to minimize latency.

If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Best Regards,

مشكلة إدخال رقم الهاتف مستمرة منذ أواخر عام 2021 ولم تتمكن مايكروسوفت من حلها. أرسلت عدة رسائل بريد إلكتروني، ولكن دون جدوى. حظاً موفقاً!

ارجو اصلاح مشكلة عدم وضع رقم الهاتف حيث تصلني رسالة تقول "أسلوب التحقق هذا لا يعمل "الآن الرجاء تجربة أسلوب آخر

Me too ... I asked the Microsoft Rewards service to provide me with a solution, but since the end of 2021, they haven't found any other solution except using the phone number. So, if your phone number doesn't work, you won't be able to use your points.
