Don't get me wrong. If you want free stuff, it's great. However it's extremely tedious and slow, just the way Microsoft intended it to be. You used to be able to hit your daily cap in under 10 minutes... See more

This service has gotten worse over time. I've used it for years and over time they've slowly decreased how many points you get while still keeping the redeem costs the same. Additionally, as of today... See more
They're removing ways to earn points/rewards. Rather than simply taking it away though, they're painfully dragging it out. It's pathetic. I'd prefer the system entirely removed vs the slow and yet ser... See more

Unhappy
Like many here, my rewards account was blocked; cannot collect points on the PC or on the XBOX. I obviously collected too many points. But I always redeemed them after reaching the goal. But it was fun and honestly saved money too. The reason might be that I took my PC with me on vacation and continued collecting from there; and VPN also seems to be a problem (in banking, home office, etc.) I started the request but, like many things, it will probably end up in the trash. What a pity.

Utterly useless
I stopped using Microsoft rewards when it stopped recording my daily goals.
Recently started using it again and once again it's a mess... It's always the "use the Bing search engine" that doesn't record my efforts.
Waste of my time and after two or three attempts, I've made no progress and Bing looks better than it is cos they've now got three more searches to advertise and make out like there customers "Bing" their search terms.
Clearing cache doesn't work and I'm not willing to wait around for days for an advisor to tell me to "clear cache" again. By then I've lost my streak and all my effort. So irresponsible and unprofessional. Bing is literally only popular because of the scams they pull via Microsoft Rewards.
UPDATE (02/09/23)
So I lost my streak due to their website not registering me completing certain activities. This was maintained post-clearance of my cache and cookies. To quote a member of the rewards team who is assisting me:
"After personally reviewing your account, I have determined that the three activities required to continue your streak were not completed, resulting in its interruption. We have verified on our end and found no registered known issue with Microsoft Rewards during that day that would have prevented you from completing the activities."
"To resolve this issue, I am pleased to inform you that you are eligible for a one-time courtesy streak restoration."
So... They've used up a courtesy streak restoration and denied any fault in their end. Furthermore, my auto redeems have been cleared. Gone. Very strange. I imagine I just lose all my hard work the next time this happens?
If I have a problem like this again in the future, I will be screen recording any inevitable problems and uploading it to YouTube; I will be posting the links here every time it happens.
