30 Day security update stopping me from buying games?

Just found that i cant update my billing information either due to the 30-day waiting period. Unbelievable

If you updated your security info there is a 30 day waiting period that cannot be bypassed even by Xbox support.

Why does resetting my security information take 30 days?

• The 30-day waiting period helps Microsoft stop unauthorized people from trying to completely take over an account that isn't theirs. For example, an unauthorized person obtaining an account password through phishing or shared passwords across third
  party platforms. This waiting period gives the real account owner enough time to be alerted of any major changes and to cancel it if they didn't make those changes.
• During this 30-day period, you'll still be able to access most Microsoft services. You won't, however, be able to do things that require a security code, like changing your password, viewing billing information, or buying new apps or games from Microsoft
  Store or on Xbox.
• After the process of resetting your security information has started, you must wait the full 30 days for it to complete. However, if you regain access to a piece of your original security info, you can cancel the replacement yourself.

It will stop if you follow through with the security proofs directions. It takes 30-days for the system to reset.

Hi Juggy,

Thanks for your post! Since it seems like you've recently update your security information, it takes 30 days for said changes to take effect on the profile. This 30 day wait is purely for security of your account, this allows a user to reverse a change like
this one just in case an account is taken over. For more information on this, check out this article:

Update your Microsoft Account Security Info. If you've already waited the 30 days, then your security information update may have been reversed or not updated properly.

I hope this helps.
