Can't regain access to my xbox account

Thanks for your response Joshua R.

Unfortunately, this is the agreement when you create an account with Xbox.

You must keep trying with the form. The system works on probability, if you’re sure the information is right, eventually you’ll get in.

Thank you. -Lumie

Hello Joshua R,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community. My name is Lumie and I'm happy to help.

I'm sorry you're experiencing this problem. I understand how important recovering your account is to you.

Did you have two-factor authentication (2FA) active on the account? If you do have the 2FA active, are you able to access the second factor of authentication? If so, please try resetting your password. Detailed steps on resetting your password can be found in the following support article: https://support.microsoft.com/office/eff4f067-5042-c1a3-fe72-b04d60556c37

Important: The account recovery form can only be used if two-step verification isn't turned on.

If you did not have 2FA active on the account, you will need to try the Account Recovery Form again: https://account.live.com/acsr

Detailed steps on how to use the Account Recovery Form can be found here: https://support.microsoft.com/office/b19c02d1-a782-dee6-93c3-dc8113b20c42

Microsoft takes account security very seriously, that's why Account Recovery is an automated process with no human influence. If you don't have the correct information, you may not be able to get through account verification using the Recovery Form.

There is no other system in place for recovery and your games cannot be passed over. Within Microsoft, they hold all the rights to lock your account. It is up to you to keep your security information up to date.

The Account Recovery Form requires adequate information to prove that you are the owner of the account. The Account Recovery Process can be a time consuming process, but providing as much info as possible from the start of the process will increase the possibility of being verified by the automated process. You'll need to keep trying until you're verified by Microsoft.

Remember to use a familiar device from which you've frequently accessed your Microsoft account, as well as a familiar location. Microsoft will review your responses and respond within 24 hours. If you are verified, instructions on how to log back into your account will be sent to you, and if you are not verified, you will need to submit the Account Recovery form again. You can do this up to 2 times every 24 hours.

It's important to note that Microsoft Support will not be able to grant you access to your account, you will be sent back to the Account Recovery pages that have been linked above.

If your Microsoft account recovery request was not granted or was unsuccessful, please click the attached link for more information: https://support.microsoft.com/office/dc56c3e3-dff0-4ed5-8edb-60290eea6b53

While it might not be the outcome you are looking for, if you’re unsuccessful in recovering your account, then you will need to create a new Microsoft account. You can do that by clicking this link: https://signup.live.com/

Let me know if you need more help.

Regards,

No I don't have 2 factor authentication, If I didn't I wouldn't be having this problem.

I'm not being funny mate but the amount of money I have spent on this account (£1236) is not something I'm willing to lose. The fact that the information I'm putting into the form is correct and I'm still being denied is not on and the fact there is no other way to get access back is crazy.

And you suggesting that I make another account and replace everything I have paid for is ridiculous and insulting.

Thank you for nothing.

Thank you for your response.

Please keep in mind, I am a user like you not an agent.

It works by figuring out how probable that you are the user and is run by an algorithm taking in many different inputs.

It has to work off likelihood to ensure your security.

It works on probability and not actually correct information?

Who tf designed it like that. Honestly the most unhelpful company I've ever had to contact. If the info is right it should just work no?
