Just saw a link on facebook about this, join bing rewards and get an additional 100gb today's for two years

Doesn't seem to like NZ as a location but was happy enough to give it to me when approached through USA based VPN

Yes, done that but didn't see it added to my account - perhaps because I already have some extra storage there from other promotions...

So you can't get this if you don't use a VPN? I was just reading Windows Phone Central and it said it was available to everyone. So went to get it and well, Bing Rewards is not available in your country.

I see this 100GB is now added to my account.

This offer seems to be now available worldwide from today. Follow this link to get 100GB on OneDrive and let us know.

That's the link I followed before via Windows Phone Central. When I click it, it just goes to a blank screen and refreshing the page says -  Sorry! Something went wrong. Please try again.
Pressing Go Back gives me the message - Bing Rewards isn't available yet in your country or region.

Hmmm. Interesting. Thanks for testing. I couldn't see anything but thought it was because I already had the 100GB added to my account

So what happens after a year?  Do they hold your data but you can't access it until you pay a ransom? And if you don't pay up they delete it after xx time?
