    Can't play online due to "way account is set up"


    Good morning, I am writing this message to seek help with my account. When I go to play online games I am having with issue saying I can't play because how my privacy settings are set up. I went to Xbox support and through a long many conversations was able to get nowhere with this issue. I have all my settings on Allow and I do not have a child account. I even set up a family as an organizer and that didn't work. I've been reading online and a Lot of people have this issue. Some have gone Months MONTHS without any clear answer or support to fix the issue. I do not understand why I'm doing everything support is saying and I still can't play online due to "the way my account is set up". This issue needs to be resolved.

    :)

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

    You can simply sign in to https://account.xbox.com/settings and from there make sure that these settings are set to “allow” or “everyone”:

    * You can see and upload community creations

    * You can communicate outside of Xbox Live with voice & text

    * Others can communicate with voice, text, or invites

    * You can play with people outside of Xbox Live

    * You can create and join clubs

    * You can join multiplayer games

    Make sure to hit “submit” when you made any changes.

    Also, if I may ask, are you on Xbox?

    ''You cannot play multiplayer games due to the way your account is set up. To change this, go to your privacy and online security settings on Xbox.com.''

    I did, but it didn't improve.
