I have accumlated 2000+ points so far... should I keep going or cash in?

I would cash in before they raise prices again.

Well, it is a good thing they pushed the date to dec 31. Its the announced date bing rewards program to end. Makes it easier for people to plan their final earnings in a way by not keeping them in uncertainty for a one more month for another possible point truncation.

I ordered my amazon gift card!!!!! it was due, I wanted to make sure i could them before a possible price raise.

An the site it says Bing Rewards Preview will end. Like the Preview part is actually in italics every time. I would wager the program will continue on in some fashion. But i am spending all my points before Dec. 31.

You'll have more time than that to spend your points. I believe it says March 31st, but I'm too lazy to look it up and be sure. It's definitely after December, though.

I got my amazon gift card code today.


Protip : Order before noon and you will get your item the same day.

that is correct.

13 points a day isn't too terrible, that's a 400 MS point card every 38 days or so. Since my wife and I both have an account, we get 400 MSP every 19 days.

I placed an order for two 100 MS Points, but only the first arrived in my email. Is there an email account I can send questions regarding Bing rewards?

You can contact them through the support site, but it's down right now. Link is below.

Are account limits even an issue now? I just cashed-in my points(and received the prize the same day), and I'm at over 6,500 total credits.

Just got an email from Bing Rewards about it's future....

I didn't get that email, but I did notice that, around 2pm EST Friday Bing changed mid-search.

I was working normal, but then when I was about halfway through my searches, it changed: it now brings the search results up with the building along the top. The search bar is gone and only shows the search results. The arrow in the upper left corner that one would think would be a back arrow doesn't seem to work. I have to use the browser's back arrow to go back to searches.

EDIT: I was too busy this afternoon to check, but it seems to still be working fine in Firefox.

why so over-happy? will there be any extra points?

EDIT: nothing changed for me yet for all browsers, works as before. quick note discover page lost its proxy checks, now everyone can get those extra offers via proxy not only vpn, shell, legit users

I logged in this morning and found an extra task in the Bing Central Discover area. It was an extra 2 points that I wouldn't have had today. Not much but I assume they'll be adding more tasks to the Discover section.

Just happy to hear they are still working on it, they are not giving up (being we were in a preview program before)

Another ten points today if you've been toggling on and off the bing homepage. YMMV.

Does anyone know why IE only gets updated with current missions but chrome and FF I'm stuck only doing 10 searches a day?

go to the discover site it will say refer friends click here it will spit out a refferal link do not post those here put them in your sig
