Xbox Users Losing Microsoft Rewards Point Streaks - Rest Assured, You're Not Alone in This Issue.
Microsoft Rewards: Addressing Premature Weekly Streak Resets
Microsoft Rewards, a program that rewards users for using Microsoft Edge, Bing, and Xbox Game Pass, is currently facing an issue with premature resetting of weekly streaks for some Xbox users.
The problem lies in the tracking of task completions and streak maintenance on Xbox, particularly related to Xbox Game Pass activities. This glitch causes streaks to reset randomly even after users complete the required tasks, disrupting the normal accumulation of rewards points and streak multipliers 1.
Users have reported finding their progress and streak counts inaccurately reset or not updated properly after gameplay sessions 3. Microsoft has acknowledged this problem and is actively investigating it, confirming that a fix is being developed and will be released soon.
In response, Microsoft has communicated through official channels that they are aware of the problem, appreciate user patience, and are working towards a resolution to restore streak tracking functionality reliably 1.
Microsoft Rewards offers various ways to earn points. These include using Microsoft Edge, doing Bing searches, playing games on Xbox Game Pass, and completing additional tasks provided by Microsoft 5. Completing daily streaks also earns bonus Microsoft reward points, while completing weekly streaks earns additional modifiers and bonuses 6.
Points can be converted into various types of rewards, including vouchers for retail stores, Xbox Game Pass codes, and in-game currency for games like Diablo IV and Overwatch 2 7. Users can also use Microsoft Rewards to buy season passes for Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV 8.
To participate in Microsoft Rewards, users need to create an account using their Microsoft Account 9. The current streaks on the Xbox PC app include "Play a PC game," "Play Jewel in the Xbox app for mobile," and "Play a game on console" 10.
It's worth noting that Microsoft does not currently integrate Rewards into other apps and services like the Microsoft Launcher or SwiftKey 11.
In the past, Microsoft has been able to reset and compensate users for losses in Microsoft Rewards 12. Users can use their accrued points to purchase PC Game Pass codes or other rewards offered by the program 13.
