Does anyone know what happened to the $1,000 Gift Card giveaway? I can’t find it on the Winners page. And no winners have been announced yet before today.
I happened to notice the other day that the Streak Protection was broken where it said I had used 1 out of 14 days. A few days later when I checked again it said 0 out of 14 days used so I said, hmm it's fixed now so maybe it was just a bug? With that said, I never miss any days, I'm pretty on point and have had the same schedule and routine for many years. Anyway, I was curious just now to see if it still said 0 out of 14 days used, and to my surprise it now says that I've used 2 out of 14 days of Streak Protection?
Is anyone else experiencing this issue as right now as well, that knows for sure they've never missed a day? I'm curious as to why the Streak Protection is always breaking and using days when it shouldn't be? This has me a bit worried as it can possibly ruin someone's streak "falsely" if they technically already used 13 or 14 days worth of Streak Protection if it's more than just a visual bug and is actually counting it as a legit missed day even though it isn't.
I understand that you can earn points from searching on PC, Mobile, and Edge, but aren't PC and Edge the same thing (if you use edge)?
No recent logins to my email either, anybody got anything?
I know not everyone has it, but if you do today is the last day to claim the bonus search points for this month. Got a nice 2500 point reward!
These were yesterday i waited until 2PM/CST I just want my giftcard to upload the roblox clothing
Question can I redeem let's say 10$ gift card without spending the previous 10$ giftcard?
This happening for anyone else? I'm so confused. I don't know if i have the cool down or if this message is targeted at specific apps and their activity. I've only had the MSN app installed for a week (and it's had the warning since i installed it. I already had the warning in Bing before installing MSN). The Bing warning has since gone away though. So confused why the MSN warning message didn't go away as well.
Is it possible to do it without a PC?
Its been always like this ever since the app updated for me. Every week for 4 weeks it doesnt get added to the total. The only piece that gets added is from the daily 3 searches every week. Is there a reason for this or is it just like that and y'all dont just complain?
Is anyone else having trouble with console check in and play game pass game?
Mines just not dinging and I need 1 more daily to complete the monthly 1000 points.
I need one more check in for the weekly console play for 150 points.
If I miss the MSN app daily check in, or miss doing the 3 daily searches, does the streak towards the weekly puzzle pieces reset?
For example: if I'm on the 7th day of checking in and doing searches, but don't do anything today, will I be back to the start of the streak or will I be able to claim two puzzle pieces tomorrow?
I've been doing my searches regularly for the last 300 days and my account got restricted. I have been spacing out my searches by 30 minutes/1 hour and I only do 2 searches at a time. They won't even let me contact support at all. What can I do to remove this false restriction?
i got the 15 points you usually get and now i cant search anymore? i waited like 2 hours and im still stuck at 15, mobile seems fine tho
I've been using Rakuten for years, but MS cashback had some crazy offer like 30% off, so I am considering to try them out for the first time.
With large purchase(think a grand or two) which would result in $300-$600 cashback, how trustworthy are they? Are there caps? I don't see the caps on the terms.
was hoping to spend my 500k points in the Black Friday sale on an Xbox Series X, does anybody when they usually put the Series X on sale? I seem to remember last year it went on sale but I can’t quite remember when, thanks
Hi! I recently came back to microsoft rewards after a long break. Turns out the new eyeblossom cape for a cape deal might come out soon. Because the Minecraft merch store is owned by Minecraft which is owned by microsoft, does this mean that the microsoft money from microsoft giftcards which comes from microsoft rewards could be used to purchase the irl creeper cape? It seems like I can still buy Minecraft accounts using the microsoft money from this way, but since the creeper cape is an irl item, would using microsoft money still work?
I still have quite a few points from before I quit microsoft rewards, I could turn those into the microsoft giftcards to get the cape if this so happens to work.
So this is new in my rewards section on xbox app and has been so frustrating trying to unlock.
One, I prefer to just focus on one game so I'm literally downloading amd playing games just to get this completed.
Two, it says you need to play for 15 minutes but that doesn't always work, sometimes it registers at the 15 minutes, sometimes I'm playing for an hour and nothing. It seems more reliable to unlock when playing on the console (ie not remote play or cloud play, though some have unlocked then most only when playing on the console itself) but still barely works.
I'm going to be really annoyed if I can't get one more game to work for this before the months end when I've tried every day to boot up a new game just for this 🙃
Seems like all ways of earning points have been nerfed or require more time/effort (e.g. cool down times). How many points are people averaging in a day currently? And how much time does it take you?
Trying to figure out which card I would use to buy vbucks for fortnite using Microsoft rewards if I don't have an Xbox or pc?
