You did the double mobile offer from last month where you downloaded the Bing app.

It was supposed to only last 30 days but I've had double points since 2/12 lol.

Been holding my points for it, just grabbed it nice. Don't forget if you have family accounts you can share 1000pts from each one if you need a little more.

So I got the 500 points from the Microsoft Launcher but I'm having no luck getting the 500 points from the Edge app.

Any suggestions?

Got the Edge app one.

Just uninstall it and follow the link and make sure you log in within the Edge app.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/rewards/edge-bonus-promo-m?pc_campaign=rewardsv2email&rtc=1

It doesn't work well with iOS though, so if you can borrow a friend/family member's Android phone do that.

I had to do that for the 2X mobile cause that's an easy extra 3000 points a month.

I finished the punchcard. I got the 1,500 points but no sign of the extra GamePass month yet. My expiration date didn't change, and I didn't get an email with a code.

Over in the Xbox thread, someone mentioned it shows up under the “redeem rewards” page as something to buy for 0 points.

It popped up for me under the "More Activities" section of the Rewards Dashboard.

It's below the Punchcards.

No 2X bing searches yet.

I have the 2X mobile points from the Edge app promo though.

Man u guys are lucky, i still haven't been offered this. I read today a guy on Reddit contacted Msoft and they said this quest is targeted to certain groups. Maybe cuz I have active gamepass?

I was viewing the bing site on my iPad after finishing the punchcard a few minutes ago and down where it shows extra ways to earn, like quizzes or getting 5 points for reading about a contest or charity, it showed an extra tile that congratulated me for finishing the punch and said it was where you redeem the free month. I selected it and it took me through the steps of placing an order for a 0 point month of Game Pass, like entering my phone number so it can send me a verification code.

Bonus: After entering my code online for the one month, it prompted me to enable recurring billing for another free month. So two free months! Score!

I believe it's also targeted to certain emails. I have 6 hotmail.com accounts and I only use 1 of them for my Rewards program. Well my Rewards account NEVER got this promo but another email account did. I forwarded to my Rewards email and tried to use it and it didn't even recognize it. So this is why I believe it's a targeted email promo.

 
MS rewards are a great way to get cheap 12mo xbox live gold codes!      i just got about 3 codes for 22,000 to 28,000 points each; and when you purchase xbox games digital; you get many points.    ($22 to $28) 

 
 
Did they raise the prices on Xbox live codes? I could’ve sworn the 3-month Xbox live codes were 15k points. Now they show up as 20k points.

Yeah it used to be 15,000 for 3 months and 29,000 for 12 months. Looks like they raised the redemption costs and removed the 12 month option. It used to be that redeeming for GP and XBL Gold only required ~9,000-10,000 points a mpnth. Now GPU is 12,000 for one month. You need roughly 400 points per day to keep it going.
 
Looks like they added GP Ultimate but removed 12 month Gold option and boosted the point costs.

I hope everyone took advantage of the GP Ultimate promo and stacked 3 years beforehand.

3 months of GP Ultimate for 35K points.

That's most of the points I can make in that timeframe with normal point values.

 
And Microsoft could very well change the pricing again because something seems off. The fact that GP and XBL cost the same amount sounds off, wrt pricing. At retail XBL is $60 year and GP is $99 per year and yet MS is charging the same amount of points? That seems like a pricing error. And GPU is $149 a year or $15 per month.

So lets not jump to conclusions that the price of GP and XBL will stay the same because they won't sell a ton of XBL gift cards at 8500 points per month. I can see how that would be normal pricing for GP. If Microsoft would make it easy to contact them regarding pricing error/question we might get an official answer.

Agreed! Hopefully at some point they'll add a 12 month Ultimate option for say 70-80k in reward points. I guess they got 3 yrs to figure it out for most of us. Worst case situation would be to let Ultimate exire and switch back to plain old XBL Gold.

 
 
"Sold out" on digital copies...yes...  Or, "reached a prescribed amount which was designated so they wouldn't get screwed too badly from the deal"...?

Was pretty pissed this time though, wasted some time the past two days doing some reward quests only for them to remove it...grrr.  Oh well.

Speaking of points/credit, I still need to call again because I never got my $10 promo credit from May.  Was already on the phone with them for 40min before I ended up hanging up.

That's pretty standard for all of their deals. They have a set number of redemptions and when they run out come back next time. For example, they have run out of the Live Gold 12 month deal (when they had one), but still had 3 month and 1 month deals available. The good news is the deals come up frequently enough that you can just save the points for next time.

If a good deal comes up and you are short more than just a few points, don't bother trying to rush to get them if it takes a few days. If you see something you like and have points, hop on it quick because it is never unlimited. That's just how it has always worked.

12 Month XBL Gold is back as a Hot Deal for 22,500 points.

Converts into 4 months of Game Pass Ultimate (still cheaper than 3 months GP Ultimate).
