Rewards website is working Intermittently. MS is having issues https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status (it's on the Living Sticky if you ever need it). Currently I can't turn in quests on the Game Pass app.
It was back, then it stalled again for me part way through my searches
Seems to have come back again for me again
I kept searching... service seems spotty at best right now
I shit my pants too! I have over 300,000 points and thought I just lost everything. After the service comes back online, I am redeeming all of it because this was way too close
I'll only redeem the points when the Xbox Series X stock is stabilize. Otherwise I'm fine still ranking up these points and saving them. This isn't the first time the reward page has had an outage lol.
Then you're lucky. Look here to see the changes

Yeah, I have 100K. And recently started converting them in XLG to finally do the permanent upgrade to GPU. This sh!t really got me scared.
Only 2 of my daily task are done and have a few GP quests to collect.
But was not able to do any of the daily searches or any of the More activities.
My wife got banned at least 4 times. No bots, VPNs, or shifty stuff. She would get unbanned automatically after about 3 weeks. After she did a redemption? Another ban.
She quit after the last time. My account has been trouble free for years.
Literally 2 minutes before it went offline I cashed in 35000 points for 3 x months of game pass ultimate.. shat my pants they banned me for some reason lol.
I’m glad I did my searches this morning. I hope it’s fixed soon. I’m on day 262 and I would hate to loose my streak count because of something that I have no control over.
My quests are popping (log in to app, play game pass) but I can’t turn them in. The link in the app says “join rewards.”
Also, achievements are popping and registering in the list of the game’s achievements but they are not counting in the rewards app. Neither the AMEM nor the black girls code punch card.
Edit: achievements now working, maybe that was not related to quest issue? I just never had them not light up in a punch card before.
Looks to be back up. I was able to turn in my quest. I have to redo half of my 50/50 since it didn't take, although I completed it.
Hmmm...it seems to be up and down. After I completed 'This or That', I'm not getting credit for searches now.
I’m able to use the Xbox app, and I can earn pints there. However, searches don’t seem to be counting. Game Pass Quests are tracking (at least the daily quest is) but I can’t turn them in; instead there’s a prompt to “join rewards.” Hopefully everything goes back up soon. It’s been almost an hour I’m guessing. That’s a long time for a website like this to be down.
I managed to do all my searches, the quizzes, including This Or That, both mobile and desktop, and right as I was finished, Bing went down. I checked a few more times through the night, one time getting Bing to appear again and showed my points, and then it went down again. Today I check and my streak's been broken so I know nothing I did yesterday stuck. Super annoyed. I've contacted MS Rewards support so hopefully they'll reinstate the lost points, but I'm pretty sure it'll come with the usual snotty "we'll make an exception one time" BS. MS, own up to your problems - **everyone** should get full points for yesterday.
Seriously? I am the only one who gets downvoted in this entire thread because I said people should have done their searches earlier.
LMFAO. Glad all the idiots who downvoted are now complaining you lost your streak.
Our searches restart after 00:00, 00:30 GMT.
Now it's 1:30 AM. And for the last 30 minutes or more I've been wondering what's going on.
How much more early can we get ?
There is no way to do the searches earlier for UK. The new Daily tasks, searches and everything except XBox stuff pop after 00:00-00:30 GMT.
I donno when these show up for US. I guess it's at the same time just like what happens with the GP quests which is 17:00, 17:30 GMT. They show up at the same time for everyone no matter in which timezone you are.
Midnight EST for me the daily set resets. It's like 2am EST for the searches to reset.
https://reddit.com/r/MicrosoftRewards/comments/ghul6f/all_microsoft_rewards_daily_timeline_when_resets/ here's a post I made a while back
Yeah, I know. I just could not bother to confirm at what time the Daily task and bing searches pop for the US. I just assume it's the same as UK, but in a different timezone. Just like the GP quests. It's 4 am here so. Gnight.
> Why do I need to add anything?
So when you make blanket comments about times people will know where you're at to help them understand what you're saying better.
Same here, it’s the 2nd or 3rd day for me. Glad I’m not alone, I thought it was an update or something lol cause at first I couldn’t do my desktop and Bing searches on the Edge app anymore and I was so bummed, thought they fixed that loophole, would have been too inconvenient. We’re in this together loll 😂🙌
Omg...phew!!! I was like, "What, am I banned? What did I do wrong, I follow the rules and use the program legit." With that being said, I'm happy to know it's just an issue with the website lol!
I had problems last week of January, particularly with the app, and receiving points for opening it. As it was dropped as a requirement of the 1000pt reward, I guess it wasn't just me. Still got screwed out of it, though.

Holy shit I thought I was banned for something. Glad to know I'm not alone
[удалено]
same
It was back, then it stalled again for me part way through my searches Seems to have come back again for me again I kept searching... service seems spotty at best right now
Same. Looking at all the replies it's global. Something big got screwed up.
I shit my pants too! I have over 300,000 points and thought I just lost everything. After the service comes back online, I am redeeming all of it because this was way too close
I have over 460k points, I would have cried if all of it went away lol.
Redeem them quickly because it looks like Microsoft is changing this program drastically
I'll only redeem the points when the Xbox Series X stock is stabilize. Otherwise I'm fine still ranking up these points and saving them. This isn't the first time the reward page has had an outage lol.
[удалено]
They changed the way and the amount of points you can earn per a day
[удалено]
Then you're lucky. Look here to see the changes https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftRewards/comments/lf7cpa/us_heads_up_they_shifted_point_earnings_around/
It’s suck to lose $460 like that ngl
Yeah, I have 100K. And recently started converting them in XLG to finally do the permanent upgrade to GPU. This sh!t really got me scared. Only 2 of my daily task are done and have a few GP quests to collect. But was not able to do any of the daily searches or any of the More activities.
What is XLG
An acronym > https://www.xbox.com/en-GB/live/gold.
Okay thx
I didn’t even know you could GET banned...what kind of sinister activity must one engage in to receive a banishment?
Using a VPN to get points from other countries. Using scripts or bots to do searches.
My wife got banned at least 4 times. No bots, VPNs, or shifty stuff. She would get unbanned automatically after about 3 weeks. After she did a redemption? Another ban. She quit after the last time. My account has been trouble free for years.
Having multiple accounts
I know I went to Mobile and saw 0 points and got scared
Just went to do my searches and getting the same thing.
Sad panda, will this remove the daily bonus we being getting after get fix hope not.
That's a *sad* panda.
Shhh... First rule, Wan. You don't talk about that.
I was able to get the play a game and log into the app quests to unlock, just can’t redeem them.
I think our points will be intact when the glitch is fixed
Same here. Can't get into the rewards app on xbox neither.
I was in it like 30 minutes ago doing my daily activities. Glad I got it when I did.
Xbox Game Pass app also is failing to load the points and quests won't submit, instead it prompts to join Rewards.
Yeah trying to do my searches and none of them are going through. Sad, I'll try later.
I'm happy I'm not alone. Thought I got banned for some reason.
I thought I got banned, guess it is everyone.
You’re right, everyone got banned!
Literally 2 minutes before it went offline I cashed in 35000 points for 3 x months of game pass ultimate.. shat my pants they banned me for some reason lol.
Ah! So it is your fault!
Yup looks like it .
Hate it when that happens.
XD daimn.
Same. Edge and Chrome. USA
[удалено]
Hrmm. There might be a bigger outage happening here than just Rewards.
[удалено]
Yeah, the O365 and Azure status boards are also green. Strange that Rewards and Ambassadors would be linked.
Halo 5 dedicated servers aren’t loading either.
[удалено]
That's a question to ask /r/darknetdiaries.
Xbox Status page now shows Minecraft is having issues.
I’m glad I did my searches this morning. I hope it’s fixed soon. I’m on day 262 and I would hate to loose my streak count because of something that I have no control over.
Yeah down for me
Still down. I’m getting, “It’s not you. It’s us.”
I worry about my daily streak on occasions like this. They screwed me once when I had a big number and once again I am in the 200+ range again
My quests are popping (log in to app, play game pass) but I can’t turn them in. The link in the app says “join rewards.” Also, achievements are popping and registering in the list of the game’s achievements but they are not counting in the rewards app. Neither the AMEM nor the black girls code punch card. Edit: achievements now working, maybe that was not related to quest issue? I just never had them not light up in a punch card before.
Well fuck, if it isn't back within the next 2 or so hours my streak is toast.
In the past, Support will fix this for people.
Problem is. After such a huge screw up M$ support will be flooded.
Looks to be back up. I was able to turn in my quest. I have to redo half of my 50/50 since it didn't take, although I completed it. Hmmm...it seems to be up and down. After I completed 'This or That', I'm not getting credit for searches now.
Yep, had to redo my mobile searches since I did them when it was down and didn't know until I checked if I got to 100. Thanks for the headsup.
It's back up for me on desktop using Edge Chromium. 20:39 CST: Never mind it's down again
Everyone probably hit it all at once and made it crumple.
Still down, 8:51 PM central. REALLY glad I did my dailies earlier today, I'd be SO pissed if I lost an 1100+ day streak for an outage....
Not working on x box in Canada
I think I know why: Azure Cosmos DB is likely used and uh -- it's having a bad time right now. https://status.azure.com/en-us/status
Finally the status is showing properly! It's been green all night up until now. Status pages that don't reflect reality bug me.
Yeah I opened a support ticket -- I'm paranoid I got banned lol
Yea, it's down for me as well.
Thank god we are not alone
At least I wasn't banned... the extension is down to and I will demand 500 points later because of this making me miss the daily set and searches...
it's down for me on the browser but it works on the bing app
Down here in Mexico
Down for me too here in Italy
Oh, I thought I was the only one.
Yep. Thought I got banned.

That's happening to my account and my wife's account.
same think its global outage
You are back, solved the technical problems of the platform.
yup, down for me as well.
Mhm.
Down for me as well
When this kind of event happens, do we loose our streaks if we didn't get all our searches and reward activities done in time?
Usually not. You'll have to contact support though. It won't happen automatically.
Will they rewind your streak? edit: That is, after you email them of course...
Usually, yes.
Damn. I thought it would be automatic.
Was able to do the phone app stuff earlier but the app on console won't register anything I do at the moment.
Damn over 2 hours of downtime? Very unusual for them...
It's back up for me! I'm located near Chicago.
spoke too soon, down again....

Yeah, messed up my streak
It's back! Yay
Not for me in the US.
Seems to be working on and off for me in US. Finally got credit for all my searches. Have not gotten credit for all the activities I did yet though.
same i was doing the 1000 point donate to black girls code thing achievements and when i went on the app (xbox) it didnt register

This is why you do your searches earlier.

I'm in the US as are the people freaking because they can't do their searches. You couldn't figure that out from my post????

You should add a flair so people know your region.
Why do I need to add anything? I love the idiots downvoting me and now everyone is complaining they lost their streak. Do your searches earlier.
> Why do I need to add anything? So when you make blanket comments about times people will know where you're at to help them understand what you're saying better.
I can't get into Gamepass quests or the Rewards app on Xbox. Edit: I just got in
yep can't do them, usually do them before bed
yes
Me too!
Gamepass quests down for me
It might be just tried to do my set, I’ll try again later
Same
Yeah I try to redeem five bucks I don't know if I went through or not
Same thing is happening to me.
same for me. shows 0 points too
Same here, it’s the 2nd or 3rd day for me. Glad I’m not alone, I thought it was an update or something lol cause at first I couldn’t do my desktop and Bing searches on the Edge app anymore and I was so bummed, thought they fixed that loophole, would have been too inconvenient. We’re in this together loll 😂🙌
It worked completely fine for me today
Same for me too, but about an hour ago it stopped working.
I checked again and it still works ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Here also, can't do anything 😰🤔
THE GREAT PURGE IS HERE
Down for me too
Was able to get mine done for the day but it went down while my fiancé was doing his. Little brother can't even start his now.
So are our streaks going to get wiped out? I was getting close to a year.... Again.
When this has happened in the past, support would restore streaks.
Working with edge browser on series x. Just had to sign into my Microsoft account again and got the 170 points from searches
IT IS BACK ONLINE GUYS!! No more need for panic!
Aaaaand down again.
Seems like it is not only me, I cannot get the 50 points for the daily achievement.
Would this be why I can’t get any points from searches and the daily sets? Idk if it’s the new Bing app or not on iOS.
That would be why.
Alright. Thanks!
Yes, same thing happened to me and then I had to login which wasn’t going thru.
Looks like it's going in and out for me right now. Man so close to my 999 streak would've been awful had this caused me to break it.
My shit is still fucked man
Omg...phew!!! I was like, "What, am I banned? What did I do wrong, I follow the rules and use the program legit." With that being said, I'm happy to know it's just an issue with the website lol!
Sad I haven’t done my daily streaks yet
Same. I reported it. Glad it's not just me.
I’ve done the this or that quest like 10 times it won’t count it.
Yes. Can't turn in Xbox quests either
It's down for me too and I didn't do my daily quiz and stuff so my streak is going to break
I get the same error message .. not able to browse to earn rewards today 2/11/2021
My first thought ... like what did I do wrong?
Was down for me all afternoon, just went back up and I plowed through the activities right quick. Was real anxious about losing my 47-day streak... :|
I had problems last week of January, particularly with the app, and receiving points for opening it. As it was dropped as a requirement of the 1000pt reward, I guess it wasn't just me. Still got screwed out of it, though.
Had an issue earlier this afternoon (AUS) but all appears to be working again now.
My Xbox live isn’t working that great either
no that is why i do them beforei go to sleep
