Microsoft is running a Azure Challenge. You will have to do some labs on Azure and answer a question at the end. Each Lab has 50 points and after earning 250 points you can claim a $50 prepaid visa card as a reward. Nice learning new skills plus some money. The challenge will end in 16 hours so hurry up.
If you complete more labs there are other prizes on offer while stocks last.

Mine arrived today by courier.
I get the feeling that one department organised this and forgot to arrange it with the other departments (marketing, logistics, etc).
They came good on it in the end.
Interesting, I wonder if mine was attempted to be delivered today, but no one was home.
Good to hear. What courier company was it?
TBH I didn't notice, I just didn't think it was the normal Auspost guy (I could be wrong).
The headphones are ok, sound is about what you'd expect for cheap wireless headphones.
Many of you have requested an update on shipping as you have not received your prizes yet, so rather than reply individually, sending you all an update.
The prizes were handed off to Microsoft shipping dept on Dec 17th and then these started leaving for the destination countries that week/following week – a shipment goes to each country every week, but it could take an additional week if that country shipment already happened. Unfortunately, we do not have tracking information for each prize or the batch of prizes to a particular country. Extra time should also be allowed because of the holidays. They are all on their way though. Please let us know if you have not received your prize by Jan 11th.
Would love to hear from non-US based folks if you have received your prize already.
Happy New Year.

I have an update for you all – thanks for the emails about receiving prizes. There were a large number of you who have said over the last week nothing has been received, so we double checked with Microsoft shipping. It appears that very little actually went out over the holiday period, but they have started shipping the prizes last week. So thanks (once more) for your patience – I know it’s super frustrating to have won something over 3 months ago and not having got your prize yet. Sorry again – we are really trying
Received today.
which company is delivering?
DHL, I believe.
Anyone in NSW receive theirs yet?
Got shipping advice today :)
… To say that it had just been picked up in Seattle :/ lol ETA is 27th Jan, shipped via DHL
I, brisbane based, havent received my keyboard yet :/
Me neither, in Sydney
that sucks, unless the shipping is slightly different for each item
Received the bluetooth headphone on Tuesday. It is black and not blue as was in the pics and has Microsoft Azure written over the right piece.
The sound is also pretty meh, but they have a mic, so they're good for those never-ending work conference calls.
Sounds like only headphones have gone out for deliver so far then
yeah :/
received my headphones. (perth)
Im guessing the items have been sent out separately or in 'waves' which really sucks,
Well I still haven't heard of anyone receive their keyboard yet, and no one in Sydney at all so you may be right. They might not even have been sent yet.
Well my headphones were only just shipped on the 21st so definitely still stuff coming
Correction, just checked tracking advice, and the darling Mrs hasn't informed me that they were delivered today while I'm at work :)
Haven't received any shipping advice, thought they weren't sending out tracking numbers
Maybe because I was one of the ones that had to confirm their address? No idea
Received DHL shipment notification this morning for the keyboard. Picked up in Washington. finally on its way…
Lucky, i havent received anything (email wise) :(, hope mines still coming
Any updates?
Edit, just got my keyboard :)
Just got mine too. I like it. Works well with ipad mini. Just got to get use to the key spacing lol.
The key spacing is a lot better than the Logitech keyboards for the iPad
Anyone who redeemed the $50 Visa Gift Card get it yet?
$50 visa card received today.
There's no chip on the card, so it might be hard to use in Australia.
Used mine in bunnings today..all good.
I put the entire amount onto Amazon as a gift card to maximise value without losing anything as fees or unused balance.
the headphone is a dud, doesn't pair via bluetooth. but got the $50 visa card today. It is in USD, so I have to buy something from amazon to avoid currency fees?
Maybe buy when the AUD drops from Woolies and get a cash refund?

You obviously have no patience. It was free. I really don't mind the wait
