Points will remain in pending state until all referral searches are verified - how to verify them & claim them? I am not being able to claim the referral points. I have referred to only one person, where I am seeing 30 points are pending for verification & yet not claimable.

    Hello, good day and thanks for your question. My apologies and I understand that the referral points is still not reflecting or not yet claimable from your end.

    Kindly take note of the terms and condition for this below.

    • Only searches made on Bing.com/search using Edge from a computer qualify for points. Referrals are eligible to earn points for one year, and are limited to new Rewards users or those with a lifetime points balance of less than 300. All participants must adhere to the Rewards terms of service, and Microsoft reserves the right to revoke points if suspicious or fraudulent activity is suspected. Points earned from this program are capped at 250 per day.

    If you will still encounter an issue within today or the next day, you may submit a ticket via https://rewards.bing.com/support for this to get checked internally by the rewards team. Response times may vary due to workload or other tasks at hand, but rest assured that they will review your case and let you know on the outcome.

    Referral searches and their verification criteria are not documented in the provided material, and there is no supported procedure here for manually verifying or “claiming” pending referral points.

    For issues where Microsoft Rewards points are not being credited as expected (including searches or other earning activities), the supported path is to contact Microsoft Rewards Support so the account can be reviewed directly. Use the Rewards Support form while signed in to the affected Microsoft account and describe that referral points are stuck in “pending verification.”

    If the support form is unavailable or the issue persists, use general Microsoft Support and request help specifically for a Microsoft Rewards account issue.
