Unresolved Geolocation Verification Error After Previous Support Investigation

I am opening this new request because a previous support case regarding the same geolocation verification issue remains unresolved.

In the previous case, I provided all requested evidence and responded to the support agent's requests. However, the issue was not resolved, and I did not receive a meaningful explanation or solution regarding why Microsoft Rewards cannot verify my location.

The error "We are unable to validate your location using geolocation verification" continues to prevent redemption despite my being physically located in Vietnam and complying with all Microsoft Rewards requirements.

The support team just replied me like automatic system. When I replied back, never heard from them later

I am requesting that this issue be reviewed by a higher-level support team and investigated as a technical problem rather than being treated as a standard verification request.

    For a Microsoft Rewards geolocation verification problem that remains unresolved after initial support contact, the only available path is escalation through Microsoft Rewards Support, as account- and region-specific issues cannot be fixed through forums or self-service troubleshooting.

    Based on similar Microsoft Rewards cases:

    1. If the account is blocked or restricted (for example, due to region, activity patterns, or policy concerns), only the Microsoft Rewards Support team can review and adjust the account. Community or Q&A responders cannot override or directly intervene in Rewards systems.
    2. In suspension or restriction scenarios, users are directed to contact Rewards Support via the official support form. If that form is disabled or responses stop, it typically indicates either a permanent decision or that the case is closed on their side, and there is no additional escalation path exposed to end users.
    3. In some Rewards cases (such as invalid gift codes), the issue was resolved only after Rewards Support completed their internal investigation and either refunded points or reissued the reward.

    For this situation, the practical next steps are:

    1. Use the official Microsoft Rewards support channel again and open a new ticket, clearly referencing the previous case number and stating that the issue is technical (geolocation validation failure) and ongoing.
    2. Provide all evidence again in a single, clear submission (screenshots, region settings, confirmation of physical presence in Vietnam, and confirmation that VPN/proxy is disabled), as front-line agents rely on this to decide whether to escalate internally.
    3. If responses from Rewards Support stop or the web form is greyed out/disabled, this generally means there is no further appeal or escalation path available from the customer side.

    There is no documented self-service method to override or bypass Microsoft Rewards geolocation verification or to force higher-level escalation beyond the official Rewards Support workflow.
