    Can I get a switch back?


    Ive been game sharing with my friend for awhile but a few months ago she got disconnected from the game share and my last switch had gotten taken, I'm assuming someone else got into my account and took the switch without my permission and now my friend can't game share and she can't afford to buy the monthly subscription at the moment

    Can I get a switch back?

    And this is why you don't share your acocumt with ANYONE

    You can select help and make it my home xbox

    For a random survey

    Shea just going to have to wait otherwise

    You are supposed to download the profile yourself noone else

    Game sharing outside of your physical household. is a violation of TOS and can lead to account and hardware bans

    Can I get more switches?

    There used to be a thing in one of the support articles that said the following:

    "If your console shows you’ve made five home Xbox switches for the year and you need assistance, select Help when you see the message, Can’t make this your home Xbox. You may be eligible to receive an exception."

    But i dont see this mentioned in any of the support documentation anymore so i dont know if its a thing anymore.

    That being said other than what i posted above there is no other way to get extra switches other than simply waiting.

    5 switches per year should really be more than enough though unless you are using it in a way that it wasnt intended for.

    Can I get more switches?

    Hi! My name is Ben a fellow member here in the community and hope you are doing well!

    I understand you would like to get more switches but when it comes to this, the current limit Xbox impose is up to five times in any one-year period. If you reach your limit for the year, it will show you the next available date you can change it.

    Aside from this, I am afraid even Xbox support itself cannot give any switches based on the note from the website as well stating Note: Customer support can’t offer additional switches. So only option is to really wait my apologies!

    Here is the link for reference https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-ne... this is also been discussed in one of the community forum just in case you may want to check https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/...

    I hope the information helps somehow on how the switches works. I know this isn't the solution were expecting but if you have further questions feel free to post back in the community and we fellow members will try our best to offer assistance.

    Kind regards,

    Ben

    Could I get my 3 switches back?

    All you can do is wait for the limit to reset on it's own. You'll also want to change your password and password protect your account so your brother can't access it and do things like that.
