I would just spam all the related searches at the top to get my daily amount. Now it seems I have to actually type something in...
I can't be bothered to keep this up if that's the case.

I do agree they’re planning to nerf the scheme into the ground, just hope they don’t suddenly stop it all together though, my mid gen Series X refresh plan would be in tatters!"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51609995","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"MonkeyMan90"},"datePublished":"2023-11-28T18:33:10.000Z","text":"I just cashed in my points and got a £240 Amazon voucher it's getting to a point now where they're just reducing all the time"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51641772","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"bogbf"},"datePublished":"2023-12-01T22:47:32.000Z","text":"Good to know it's not just me.

Both on my PC Edge browser and via android app, I'm hardly getting any points for my usual searches. I could search HUKD, then say, my bank, then The Atletic, then Amex etc and of all of those searches I'd probably get 3 points. It also seems that I need to wait at least 5 full minutes between each search otherwise I wont get any points.
It's got to the point where I probably have to do about 250 searches just to get the full 90 points on my PC
Oh, and on the xbox my daily achievement aren't tracking. for around 7 hours, so I cant claim the daily 5 (or is it 50) points."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51642014","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"aLV426"},"datePublished":"2023-12-01T23:28:49.000Z","text":"Well that does it - they have just wiped out 400k worth of points on me now:

Learn more about the Microsoft Rewards program
So lets go through these points shall we?
- Maintaining multiple user accounts per household - erm well yeah there is more than one person in this house with a Reward account? Since when did that become a violation? I have 8 Xboxes so yeah I have at least 8 accounts?
- Opening more than one user account per individual - actually no - 1 account per Xbox
- Residing outside of the supported regions - Northern Ireland being part of the UK is actually supported
- Providing inaccurate account information, including your true first and last name, your complete and accurate mailing address, a working phone number and your email address - This is silly - how else are my reward point purchased delivered?
- Using a service intended to confuse your true IP address or your location - I don't bother masking my IP, especially when earning reward points
- Using a bot, cheat code, macro or other automated method to participate in Microsoft Rewards - not for the past fortnight I haven't
Well that's a good hour of my life reclaimed, I don;t even think I'll bother challenging my lost 400k points. Sickening."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51666074","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"mysmugcat"},"datePublished":"2023-12-04T22:03:52.000Z","text":"Edge is slow and annoying anyway I think."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51690826","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Moss.b"},"datePublished":"2023-12-07T21:43:40.000Z","text":"When the bots get updated let me know.
