I have found out that my Rewards account was suspended today. I was not given notice, nor explanation, and since I'm not one who is constantly checking my rewards, I'm not sure how long this was going on. What I remember is that I had something of around 50k points, as I would use Bing pretty liberally.
This is the message I get when going to my Rewards dash:
Your Microsoft Rewards account has been suspended.

I have tried contacting Rewards support, but it informs me that because I'm not following the rules, I can't contact support. All the message boxes are grayed out and I can't type in them. So I can't ask what I'm not following, nor can I ask for an appeal in case I tripped over a terms of service without knowing, or if it was just a glitch. I don't even know if I actually did violate ToS, as reading over the rules, it's not presently clear what I might've done. If I actually did something that I'm not inclined to correct, I would at least like to know.
(I have had the Rewards account for quite a while, and this is the first time any issue came up.)
I have contacted Microsoft Support, but they had no jurisdiction over Rewards, so they couldn't tell me what I was looking for. They directed me here.
I just want to know: What did I do wrong, was it legitimate, and if/how I can correct it.
