Why does only some of my searches give my points on Microsoft Rewards?

This issue is getting really annoying for me and I need this fixed ASAP.

I've tried the following:

-Resetting history

-Clearing all of my cache

-Resetting my settings

-Logging in and out of my account

-Uninstalling and reinstalling both Bing and Microsoft Edge

Other information:

-I haven't reached my daily limit for points from searching

-I live in the US

-The issue occurs on both my PC and my phone

-I'm not searching things I've already searched today

    Late reply I know, but let's face it, none of our searches are meaningful. We're out to get the points.

    Test1, wait 5 secs,

    Test2, wait 5 secs,

    Test3, wait 5 secs.

    Sound meaningful to you?

    People who are out to get max points are either doing this or using some sort of software tool. It frustrates me too as an Automation Engineer, but I'd do the exact same if someone was deliberately doing this just for the points.

    It sucks but I get it.

    Does anyone else have the problem that you only get 1 point for 1 search? And still have to wait several minutes until 90 searches can be carried out?

    Thanks for your reply!Microsoft is starting to lose business. They need to fix the points back like they were!

    Go to the "Search & Earn", click it and do 3 searches then it will show you have 15 points out of 250. They set it so it won't show your earned points until you've done 3 searches. The problem I'm having is that after the 4th search it will not reward any more points unless you wait at least 30 or more minutes and then it will only reward for the next four and stop foe almost an hour again. No matter how many searches you do. Its making you wait and its absolutely ridiculous!!
