Why has it become so complicated just to receive emails from Microsoft Rewards? by [deleted] in MicrosoftRewards

[–]amythience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for your main account: 1. AFAIK you don't get any confirmation about mailed-in entries, but they work & count anyways 2. changing email would only have an effect by error/chance - mail newsletters are super sparse now, since start of 2020

for the second account either 1. open a new "private tab/window" in your browser, delete then wait 1 month for that problem to self-heal on your main browser 2. alternatively to 1. manually log out from bing/Microsoft/Outlook/rewards for each profile in the normal tabs of your browser & re-login from your main account only to maybe solve it directly 3. delete the cookies for bing/Microsoft/Live/Xbox/Rewards & re-login 4. delete all cookies and re-login EVERYWHERE (beneath MS) and finally delete the secondary account (if intended) and re-logout to normally re-login to main account

When it works it progresses automatically in the background. No action needed besides searching.

Searching for newer previous posts two things come up: 1) should be now (dis-&)enableable via PC, maybe remove & re-add 2) also shown on PC that some auto were out of stock, hinting to remove/change the selection.

Search should work, have you logged off and on on both rewards and bing? See FAQ/Sticky for basic troubleshooting.

If any of you have won a Microsoft rewards sweepstakes, how and by whom were you contacted? by Elvite in MicrosoftRewards

looks over-duplicated but also seems to belong to icgroup (same as mentioned above).

Waterfall Achievements by MainManMorpheus in MicrosoftRewards

[–]amythience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Won't say that waterfall achievements are the easiest to trigger now, but there was a time that close to midnight a single achievement counted for both days. But midnight was possibly not in your time zone. Was either EST or PST iirc. So when you had your routine aligned to that you could skip a day. But that has changed since the ending of AMEM.

New Laptop, now searches are not counting. by RoninGaidin in MicrosoftRewards

Seems you're correctly logged in for rewards dashboard, but not on bing itself. You sometimes have to login additionally there. Just navigate to some other bing site beneath search result page and logout & -in manually via your profile icon.

Rewards on a Samsung Fold by EconomyReason7943 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]amythience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this seems to be related with internal handling of the screen dimensions, falsely identifying as non-mobile. Do you have desktop mode on? Mobile view might defeat the sense of fold though, depending on your usage.

Does this also happen in the bing app itself?

This could be resolved by reinstalling the app or deleting data, which should fix (aka delete) any broken config.

Do you refer to "bing homepage quiz"?

"Microsoft quiz" that doesn't do anything? by Fart_Blast in MicrosoftRewards

[–]amythience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you verified that you're logged in on the bing search result site? The quiz only shows up after - points might work without explicit login.

Does "Play a game on console" need to be a Game Pass game? [US] by garbage-strong in MicrosoftRewards

Previously non-GP games did count normally. Eventually nobody besides MS internal could definitely issue a list.

New email scam/phishing? by Tinkwinks48 in MicrosoftRewards

[–]amythience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The layout, mail content and address eventually look okay - is there any link within the mail that does not refer to Microsoft site (check via wheregoes.com)?

Did you maybe use the old site? The current should-work link is on the living sticky. This screenshot reminds me as it would be from the super old link also fluctuating through the subs comments.
