Microsoft Points Out, New Rewards In
Microsoft sent an email earlier today confirming that the Xbox Live rewards scheme will be undergoing some modifications in the coming months. Previously, customers would be rewarded with MS points to spend on whatever they desired, but since Microsoft have decided to get shut of MS points, something has to change.

The email began with “With all these changes, it’s become necessary for us to evolve the way we reward you. Starting August 1, 2013, you will not be able to earn Microsoft Points through Xbox Live Rewards any longer,"

It then went on to say “Not to worry, though! Since this currency change is impacting the structure of the program, we’re taking the opportunity to make Xbox Live Rewards even better. You’ll continue to get rewarded for doing the things you love on Xbox Live – just not with Microsoft Points. So come back to rewards.xbox.com on September 1, 2013 for the full scoop. You can also follow us at @XboxLiveRewards on Twitter for the latest updates,”

Microsoft also confirmed that “if you still have Points in your Xbox account when Microsoft Points are retired, they’ll be transitioned into your country’s local currency.”

Microsoft recently messed up the conversion from MS points to real-world money. Read about that here
