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

    It was done intentionally to slow us down, similar to removing the 20 edge points, and the "This or That?" quizzes.

    EDIT: Most of the options on the rewards page have dropped from 10 points to 1 point today.

    Yes the same is been to me by BING, they have slower down my searching to only 12 point per hour & mobile searching is also been the same, and only 1 point to quizzes

    such a cheap trick by bing when you are very close to your points to redeem

    Edge is going to die like internet explorer.

    Yeah, today I didn't see anything about 2 points. This sucks. I really loved this program and this will probably make me stop participating pretty soon, since I only really wanted it for game pass subscriptions. Whoever decided on these changes, if you read this, just know I think you're a jerk.

    I have found that no matter what you do they no longer give you credit for searching.

    yeah! same is happening to me too. does not matter how i search in the pc, the points increase only after 20+ searches or sometimes they do not even increase at all. However, searches on mobile are working fine (till now).
