Can't receive party invites or game invites from people that aren't my friends

sup Z3RO · Mar 29, 2017

I've been having this problem for the last couple months.

I play Destiny and try to join LFG's, thing is I never receive their party or game invites unless I'm added as their friend.

Any possible fix for this? Thank you!

Can't receive game invites

I haven't been able to receive game invites from my friends. I can send them but can't receive. I even get party chat invites but not games invites. I'm pretty sure my social settings are set correctly. Any help?

Unabke to receive most invites

Since the update I've been unable to receive invites from almost everybody. I can receive most, but not all, invites from friends and followers and 99% of invites from others are never received either. I can still join parties and games with other people
and send invites to others with no problem but I can't receive invites which makes it very difficult to play games or join parties with people not on my friends list.

Hey there,

That may indicate you have a setting enabled to only receive invites from friends. I suggest navigating to 'All settings' from the Xbox One guide, scroll down to 'Account' and select 'Privacy & online safety'. From there, I recommend running through each
of the settings to make sure everything is set up appropriately.

Let us know if that helps out!

I can join parties and receive party invites just fine. The problem is the game invites. For example, I was trying to play Call of Duty: Warzone through a Looking For Group post. I join the party but then don't receive the game invite and can't invite
them to my game.

I'm having the same problem, can't get onto my friends list to invite people to game/party.

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

Please perform an extended power cycle on your end and then reset your network hardware by following the steps below:

1. Unplug the power cable from the back of the router, modem, or gateway for 5 minutes. If you have a router and a modem, unplug the power cable from both devices.

2. Press and hold the Xbox button on your console for 10 seconds or until it turns off then wait for 2 minutes before turning it on again.

3. After 5 minutes, plug the modem or gateway in first, and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

4. If you are using a router, plug in the router and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

After that try to invite any of your friends again.
