1 MyVIP Gem to 1 Microsoft Rewards point seems pretty unfair

chamila26 · Apr 14, 2018

I wanna get the 10,000 Rewards Credits or Visa® Prepaid Reward Card from vault but every time i check, its out of stock. So basically i wanna spend 500 gems to get 10000 reward credits which will be then converted to my currency when the accounts migrate.
With that money or Visa® Prepaid Reward Card, i can get a 1 month gold or a game pass. But since those items are out of stock in the myvip vault, the only option i have is to let the gems convert into microsoft reward points. That way i only get 500 microsoft
reward points for 500 gems and need about 6300 more points to get a 1 month gold or game pass. That makes the gems and the efforts put into getting them pretty much worthless. So please restock the myvip vault or reconsider the conversion ratio.

MyVIP Gems transition

You got it right, convertion rate will be 1:1.

From the Microsoft Rewards Migration FAQ: "any unredeemed MyVIP Gems will be converted to Microsoft Rewards points and can be used to redeem rewards from the Microsoft Rewards catalog once your membership is transitioned.
One MyVIP Gem will convert to one Microsoft Rewards point".

They have been restocking the Vault lately, but I agree the most requested prizes get out of stock pretty fast...

Hello pedro lucas pit,

As stated in the FAQ, you will not lose your Gems. They will be converted to points. As stated in your email notification, this will be at a 1:1 ratio:

What will happen to my Xbox Live Rewards MyVIP Gems, MyVIP Perks, and MyVIP Vault?

You’ll have until 31 May 2018 to earn MyVIP Gems and unlock any new MyVIP Perks. You’ll then have until 15 June 2018 to claim any open MyVIP Perks and to redeem any unused MyVIP Gems in your Xbox Live Rewards account for prizes from the MyVIP Vault. After
this date any unredeemed MyVIP Gems will be converted to Microsoft Rewards points and can be used to redeem rewards from the Microsoft Rewards catalogue once your membership is transitioned. One MyVIP Gem will convert to one Microsoft Rewards point.

Well, it would seem like 50 gems is equivalent to $1 USD in the MyVIP vault. The price changes a bit if you buy the higher tiered items, such as the $25 visa gift card being 40 gems each dollar. However, in the FAQ, it states that 1 gem will equal 1 Microsoft
rewards point. However, 1000 Microsoft rewards points is equivalent to $1 USD. So it's way better if you spend your gems before they are transferred. If you have 500 gems, that get's you a $10 gift card in the Vault. If it's transferred, that get's you $0.50
in Microsoft rewards points.....
