The automated website wasn't having its searches tracked today?

That happens to me from time to time. Often times, the search credits will show up later in the day, like Bing wasn't counting real-time.

I searched this morning, and my credits are showing up.

One of my 4 accounts got cancelled. Something about ToS violation. The other 3 are fine.

Is this thing still going? I cashed out $35 worth of Xbox credit (leaving me with one point) and now I see that my one remaining point hasn't gone up even though I've done searches.

My account was cancelled.

They said I was using a bot. I wrote back and said it's funny they're banning people for doing something "shady" like using a bot or paying people to use their search engine to artificially boost their numbers.

No response.

They were practicing their shady methods to get their Win10 adoption numbers higher.

I had 1 point and it wasn't adding more (when I asked that question in September), so I quit.
Today I looked at getting Destiny for my Xbone ($35, and comes a $10 MS code. Normally it's $60) and the checkout had a sign up for Bing Rewards.
That inspired me to do some more Bing searches but it didn't add them. Then I clicked on my account at it said it noticed suspicious activity on my account and had me enter a captcha code and now it's working again.

Sadness, but all my accounts got banned 1.5 years ago anyway.

I was still using it, but I've only been using one account.
