I thought they were doubling points per search, they're just doubling the cap for daily amount. Extremely lame as Bing will lock your account if they feel that you're doing too many searches.

Ensure that you space out your searches to avoid getting your account restricted.

I think they'll only lock it if there are illegitimate searches. I used to mash random buttons for my searches and got locked with cool down and inability to redeem. Since then I search real terms and haven't been throttled.

Yep. I haven't been able to redeem rewards for about a month now. They've gotten pretty ridiculous

Max 500 points, 5 points per search. Good luck of not getting your account suspended after searching 100 times a day for 6 day straight

Nice. I'm going to need the points to buy cloud space for a backup when I finally upgrade to Windows 11.

I used to be able to get Amazon gift cards with my points redemption. It seems like it went away around early October

Weird. I still see them on my Bing app. Only $10 GCs but they're there.

Weird, I still can. I can do $5, 10 or custom which I've done for $100 before. That's odd.

Yeah, I was in the penalty box for a long time. Luckily it lifted and I cashed in 104000 pts for $80 Amazon GC. So im just gonna max out the points now and let the chips fall where they may

The Microsoft rewards support is extremely unhuman and you think the help is from a person but it will only be an ai that gives fake help. You can tell as you try to get the same support from the name it uses. The ai has also made web pages with really weird guidelines that no real human would require.MS demands anyone working their must use ai in their daily work. This info comes from many support employees who leave info in reddit that were part of the layoffs over the summer.. So as some here are saying be extremely cautious how you search. So many times it has no rhyme or reason you get blocked. The ai they use is a professional at cyberbullying.

they appear to have brought it back. just google "microsoft rewards amazon gift card" and it will be the first entry/link you see.
the only caveat is that you have to do $10 at a time (unlike before, when you could do any amount you had available). they will also ask you to use the bing app for verification.

My account was on suspension. Only could do 4 search per hour. That was going for like 2 months. Bing finally unsuspended my account last week.
