My account is registered as a Child Account, but I'm Not a Child, and I already changed my Birthdate. How do I Change my account from a Child to an Adult?

I want to change my account from a child account to an adult account but I forgot my adult account completely. How do I change my account from child to buy games and actually use it if I forgot my adult account?

Hello,

A child account can not be forced into an adult account. Changing the date will also not change it. What ever date is first put in is the true age of the account and that will need to age into the correct "Adult" age.

As said there is no way to change your child's account to an adult account until the age of birth you have put has reached the age of an Adult for your specific region. There are some troubleshooting tips that if your account is past the birthday and still
a child's account there is a way to promote to an adult account.

Changing your birthdate doesn't changes the age with which your account was first registered.

Help please!

I have an adult account which I have tried to register as a child on xbox.com and they have taken the money 50p from my account but have not updated it's status. Therefore I cannot put restrictions on the account. It seems my only option is to delete it
but I don't understand why it's not registering as a child when the birthdate is a childs and they have registered that they have taken payment???

You cannot change an Adult account to a child account. The 50p charge is to change a child account to an adult account

Hey Xwarrior,

Did this account graduate naturally from a child account to an adult account or was there a birthday change attempt? You can change the birthdate to the Microsoft account but it will not change the birthdate that was entered originally to the Xbox profile.

In other words, a child account will remain a child account until it graduates naturally to an adult account. No way around it.
