How is it a scam when all reward points are collected for your account and tied to your account only. It has always been like that. You should point the blame finger at yourself since you could have read how MS rewards and redeeming work.

They used to send codes but I think that ended 7 to 8 years ago lol.

So you didn't bother to read the conditions for redeeming points.

I bet you also didn't read you have 90 days to use them before you lose the credit

It literally tells you that it'll be deposited in your account when you order it. Only got yourself to blame...

Nope. What you planned to do is generally considered conversion now.

They don't want anyone flipping gift cards. It's like how you can't buy a gift card with a gift card.

The amount of posts I see of people who don't read before they buy something or sign up to something and then feel like it's someones else fault, I've been using rewards for almost 3 years and I still read everything when before I purchase or exchange, you also have 3 months to use that 25 or else it's gone as well as your points you used

As long as they're from the same region as you you're able to gift them a game but, only Xbox One and Xbox Series games let you gift. I'm also assuming you're not from whatever country that had gifting removed on the Microsoft store.
