Then, all you have to do is to re-login to your account and check if the problem is solved.

2. Reinstall Bing

Uninstalling the Bing app and then reinstalling it is another way to alleviate the issue. Sometimes, the problem is with the app itself and not Microsoft Rewards.

You can also restart your PC or mobile if the workarounds above don’t work for you. Some issues may solve after you restart your device.

If you still encounter this problem, the only way is to contact the Microsoft Rewards Support team and report it.

Before deleting or uninstalling the application, first, redeem your points because you may lose all of your available points. Then, follow the proper instructions to uninstall the app.
