Anybody elses rewards being janky as fuck? Using Edge on the pc, do all the dailies, nothing updates / no green ticks to say I've completed.

Using the rewards app on the console, 50G for unlocking an achievement failing to register either.

Two days now. MS bollocks of 'clear your cache' yeah right - the usual turn it off and on again reply.

So yeah, anyone else having issues?

Yes, I got three achievements yesterday and not a single one of them registered on the app. Going to try again today.

On the website, I usually have to click the 10+ titles two or three times for them to register. The quizzes usually work fine.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

The 30/30 one on the website keeps saying 20/30 and finish the last choices, get the you’ve just earnt 30 points message but then it’s still stuck on 20/30 and wants me to complete the last choices again.

The random quiz about tennis will not progress.

Don’t know if we all get the same choices?

AMEM has been broken for me the last two days. Rewards Reddit saying the same, bummer.

Edit: lol, amen

Damn. This better not screw up my weekly set streak.

Well it's totally dead now, hope they are fixing it.

Yeah, their shit is totally fucked right now.

UK. Thanks for checking.

 

[Topher]

Day three and Rewards are still jacked up. WTF, Microsoft?

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

It wouldn’t even log me in to the app today.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Seems to be working better today. How is everyone else getting on?

 

[Topher]

I haven't tried on Xbox yet, but the rewards site is working again, thankfully

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Is anyone doing the 500 point bonus for getting an achievement in their top 10 anime games? If so, which one do you recommend?

 

[Pantz]

In the Xbox Rewards app you can complete the Anime Month offer and the Ultimate Game Sale offer at the same time for buying $40 worth of "Anime Games" on sale since they are part of both sales.

 

[Sleepwalker]

Been going at this for a week now, any recommendations for the searches? Also I'm doing 2 accounts, mine and my brothers. Gonna get the wife's on it as well.

 

[reksveks]

I search for something boring but I can just quickly bounce through.

'Newsround Cast' then click on one of the hosts.

Easy way to just get those points.

 

[Kilau]

AMEM broken again for me. I know achievements broke in general the other day but now seems like its messing up rewards again.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Fucking rewards app bust again. Mine was working on Sunday.

 

[Banjo64]

Just read that they’ve enabled auto renew on 1 month game Pass which brings the price down to 10.5k.

Has anyone else started having issues with the quizzes on IOS? When I get on to the third and final question (choose the 5 right answers) it freezes without fail.

That’s happened multiple times in both safari and edge for me. Annoying

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Currently have 183,000 points

What a pointz slut!

I only have 25k

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Keep meaning to add an extra 3 months of GPU but already good till March 2024.

 

[Banjo64]

This one made me laugh

 

[Thebonehead]

Can you still get the rewards app on PC?

I used to have it on mine, but rebuilt recently, and subsequently forgot where I managed to download it from last time

 

[analog_future]

I can't redeem my rewards this morning. I select to redeem and it just refreshes the page. Is this normal on the first of the month?

Rewards pages can be buggy. Could be something cached wrong though. Try another browser. Otherwise just wait a bit or until tomorrow. Problems usually clear up

 

[DR3AM]

My friend can now points on the PC and/or the Xbox app. I don’t have that option. Is this something new?

It isn't entirely the same. On the PC app, click on your profile in the top left and then click View Profile. There will be a tab for rewards:

But the Xbox app has a lot more including daily and weekly quests.

 

[Kilau]

The xbox mobile app rewards is new for me as of about 2 weeks ago. Something or the exact same thing has been available in the UK for awhile apparently.

Mine only has Achievements and About, no Rewards section.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

They've nerfed the 24 daily / 12 weekly tasks from 1000 to 500 points.

 

[Mobilemofo]

I'd join just to get myself a PSN 3 months pass.

 

[TuFaN]

I got a friend who keeps getting MS gamepass on pc for 1€, how does that even work?

Sign of things to come IMO. Wouldn’t be surprised if they half the search points at some point too.

Same email/address?

 

[Havoc2049]

Ya, I mean if you have no sense of community/multiplayer and progression with a gamertag, you can keep changing your email address and gamertag each time you sign up.

 

[Kilau]

I tried the Black Desert thing to get the 250 points but even with as much as I love getting points, holy shit this game is awful. Couldn't do it, not a fan of this change to rewards.

 

[eastcoastkody]

is there any place to see a record of points earned and spent? I really feel like they took double the amount of points from me for the monthly auto redeem $10 thing. I had a ton of points. Like 30k. and after Jan 2 i only had like 12k left

You used to get 5 per search and it’s down to 3. Guess they could cut it to 2 anytime.

I just use the dashboard on the website.

I happen to hit a nice round number today, but I have no idea what to spend these points on. I wanted to get an expansion card for my Series X but the Microsoft store doesn't seem to carry them anymore.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

I would get at least another 12 months GPU if your not already maxed out.

Can’t do a year yet, 6 months still until I can stack another.

I might do Amazon gift cards but it’s such a pain doing those $10 at a time and then fraud protection kicks in.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Damn. Don’t think I can get Amazon cards in the UK version as I would go for that with some of mine.

 

[Goss Harag]

Damn. Don’t think I can get Amazon cards in the UK version as I would go for that with some of mine.

Amazon gift cards have been available in the UK for quite some time now. I used them to get God of War Ragnarok when that came out.

 

[Nitty_Grimes]

Yeah you're right, I wasn't looking properly.

 

[analog_future]

Pretty solid month this month:
