Requested 5000 credits, removed 250 gems and no credit recieved

Hello c610,

You requested these items on the fifth and the seventh. From the FAQ:

I claimed Rewards Credits from the vault. When will I receive them?

If you claim Rewards Credits from the MyVIP Vault, they should appear as pending in your account within 96 hours. Once they are pending in your account, the normal deposit process kicks in. Generally if you have over 5,000 Rewards Credits pending in your
account in the first half of any given month, that amount will be converted to your local currency and deposited into your Microsoft account on or around the 30th of that same month. If the Credits show as pending in the second half of the month, that amount
will be deposited into your Microsoft account on or around the 15th of the next month.

Please note you need at least 5,000 Rewards Credits pending to automatically trigger a deposit, though you can request a deposit for the next scheduled date as long as you have 1,000 Credits pending. Also, if you have ongoing issues with us depositing
into your account, such as your account not matching up with your billing location, you might want to consider choosing a different prize from the vault, as we won’t be able to deliver your Rewards Credits until the deposit issue is resolved.

Hello GropingDinosaur,

Since you redeemed two 5000 Credits for 250 Gems from the vault, 500 Gems (2 x 250 = 500) were removed from your account.

Hello LuckyCharm655,

250 Credits is equal to .25 USD. You can only manually request a deposit as currency once you have 1000 or more pending Credits. At 5000 or more pending Credits, a deposit will be scheduled automatically. The offers on the MyMissions page change constantly,
and aside from MyVIP payback, are the only way to earn Credits.

Hello CIA Skenzi,

Due to a large amount of user's claiming prizes at the same time, you may have seen an error message as a result. We see you claimed your prize a few days ago and they are currently pending on your MyRewards page. From the FAQ:

Or simply don't lower their value. If 250 Gems are worth 5000 points, they should still be worth 5000 points in June.
