For me, it's not only that I didn't get any rewards, but the fact that my hometown is now permanently set to Russia and I cannot change it back as promised that's egregious. It's one thing to not get extra bonuses, but it's something else entirely that my use of wayfarer is now impacted negatively. Niantic accomplished their goal of getting reviews in Russia, but now every other location will get less reviews since we're stuck getting Russian reviews and can't change back to our hometowns. The promise was we'd get more stuff approved in our hometowns, but we're going to get less once everyone stops reviewing over this. Pretty disappointing.
I tired to post before but it doesn't seem to have gone though, maybe since i tired to attach a picture.
But i received no rewards in game and wayfarer and my location was stuck and unable to change like they said.
Tired of the lack communication (as per typical niantic) i requested my location change through pogo help and they have reset it for anyone that might be still stuck.
And if course they added the not so useful informative advice that I wouldn't get any rewards if i didn't review any Russian submissions.
Yes of course! That explains it! i changed my home location for no reason did nothing niactic!
Although i did join late, because they don't advertise anywhere on the reviewing section. I did join within the specified time, i reviewed at least half a dozen nominations along with a large amount from my actual country.
Will at least my home location is no longer stuck and I've learnt another reinforcing lesson that wayfarer is not much worth the time
Yeah, just to add another number to the total of complaints - 20/06 and still no rewards for me either.
Some people seem to have received items but no upgrades - I haven't even got the items. I reviewed enough that surely I got at least one agreement... and also started before the target was met. Could the cause be reverting my hometown location back before the rewards were given out? Or is this just Niantic? 😐️🤷
Hi! I’ve also participated in Russian Wayfarer challenge, even reviewed more than 20 Russian submissions (and I’m positively sure that I got at least one agreement) and I did not receive any rewards. Please make it right
My reviews were also in St. Petersburg. I hope this wasn't one of those weird things where they draw boundaries that don't match with reality, like the Tauros/Heracross line which, instead of being between the United States and Mexico, is just a straight line across the map that cuts through both countries.
I received nothing in pogo or wayfarer and my home location was stuck and not able to change like they advised.
Tired of the lack of communication i at least contacted them through my pogo help and they at least reset my home location.
I like how they just assume i didn't do any reviews. Although i did join late (since they don't advertise this anywhere unless you click on community) i did at least a dozen Russian reviews 😠
Same issue here. I did about 15-20 reviews of Russian wayspots.
I received no rewards. I wrote to the in-game support with my Pokemon Go account and they thought I'm stupid asking for rewards if I didn't join the challenge, but of course I did.
Many friends of mine had the same issue, while other received their rewards.
Could you please fix it @NianticBrian-ING @NianticVK @NianticAaron ?
@NianticGiffard Any updates? This has been a really frustrating experience for me and I feel helpless. I've lost my interest in the game, which I enjoyed playing before, now that I know Niantic doesn't do what they promise.
Completed around 100-150 submissions (15/20 from Russia). My badge Nummer is going up but no rewards no Upgrades nothing. For me that is a lot. Befor that Challenge I had maybe like 200 submissions completed (lifetime). So in my opinion I did enought to earn this rewards. I spent like 7-8 Hours for This :(

I am glad to meet you. I participated, too. However, I do not yet get a prize for participation.
I also haven’t received the upgrades and rewards

No rewards received either here 🙋♂️
Just adding my name to the list of people missing rewards after participating in the challenge. Haven’t gotten them for either game, or wayfarer.
I received nothing in pogo or wayfarer and my home location was stuck and not able to change like they advised.
Tired of the lack of communication i at least contacted them through my pogo help and they at least reset my home location.

Same didn't got any rewards
I still did not get any reward, but I reviewed more than 100 nominations, e.g. many playgrounds, so there should definitely be an accordance!
I have not received any rewards yet. What's going on?
I had over 30 wayspots from russia in the event time and still no rewards.
Thanks for nothing.
Same for me. No rewards yet.
Same for me, I got over 15 way points from Russian and there were some 100% duplicates. :(
Same issue here. I did about 15-20 reviews of Russian wayspots.

I got wayfarer upgrades and a code for ingress, but I didn't obtain any stuff in PokemonGO
@NianticGiffard Any updates? This has been a really frustrating experience for me and I feel helpless. I've lost my interest in the game, which I enjoyed playing before, now that I know Niantic doesn't do what they promise.
Day 3 and still nothing.
How is it that people who I told to do it, have reviewed same amount and did exactly the same with change location that they have it and I dont???
Is Niantic forgetting that we are doing there work? For free? Because we love the games!
And the only thing we got is silence from them.....
@NianticAaron
Same, I don't have any rewards yet
It's weekend they probably don't work ;)
Didn't receive any upgrades either, some clarification on the issue would be nice.
