  1. Bought and downloaded a game to the wrong microsoft account.


    Hiya, Back in January I fancied the new Fishing pro game and as I was at work didn't think and bought it and purchased it. Then promptly logged into my work Microsoft account and installed it there. I have then been away in Chichester in a long term hospital
    visit. As soon as back and with the 12-week self-isolation went to my usual account for home and the new game wasn't there, I realised I have installed it on the wrong account. I have proof I bought it but do not know how to transfer it or what to do. Any
    ideas, please? Thanks, Andy

    :)

    Bought and downloaded a game to the wrong microsoft account.

    Unfortunately once a game is redeemed on an account, it is tied to that account. If you want to play on Xbox you could set the work Gamertag as your home account and still have access to all the other games through that console. If on PC the only thing
    you can do is link your main account with your work account but you will only be able to play it using the work account.

    Downloaded microsoft $$$ to wrong account.

    You cannot convert your account balance from one currency to another.
    You cannot transfer the money in your Microsoft account to another Microsoft account.
    This includes transfers between accounts held by friends, family members, or even other accounts registered
    in your name or determined to be owned by you.

    While there isn't any way to transfer Microsoft account currency between accounts. You can always "gift" an item you were planning to buy to the other account I believe. I once bought Halo for my brother that way.

    Best,

    Nozzle :)
