  1. Bought game on wrong microsoft account


    Hello, i have bought a game pass on my other account to test Sea of Thieves, and i really liked it so i wanted to buy the game. Unfortunately, microsoft logged me in on wrong account while buying the game, which resulted in me buying the game on the wrong
    account, and with it i lost 150 hours of gameplay. Thats why i wanted to ask for the refund of the game, so i can buy it on right account. Yet, i unfortunately cant refund the game. What can i do about it? Do i have to start everything from beggining, or can
    i somehow get a refund?

    :)

    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.

    Minecraft Windows 10 edition refund

    Hello tommyström,

    Are you able to check which account you bought the game on. You may have bought it on the wrong Xbox account. If so, log into that account and order a refund on the Microsoft website.

    Thanks and have a good day!

    Minecraft

    I bought it off of Minecraft’s site through my microsoft account, so if I happened to buy it on the wrong account, is there any way to refund the money or get the game onto my account? I have looked into my different microsoft accounts but none of them have the game that I purchased.
