  1. complete confusion with startup


    hello all.

    everytime my xbox booted up, it would go to an error screen (specifically e208). so i reset console (keeping games and apps). now, when i try to link the mobile app to the console (i had originally yet it wanted me to do it again) and enter the code, it says unable to connect to "XboxSetupxxxx" (xxxx= whatever combination it had given me). i cannot progress past this screen. i have deleted the app on my phone and restarted the console as well.

    Please help!

    (a bit more detail: it is an xbox one s, i have an external hardrive plugged into it, takes a very VERY long time to even get past the xbox green loading screen)

    :)

    Hi and thanks for reaching out. I hope you’re doing well. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you and I'll be happy to help you.

    Just to clarify, does it give you the option to skip that step as well?

    Hello, I really appreciate the response! Fortunately, I managed to solve the problem as it was down to my own Wi-Fi servers needing some work. It’s all done now though and it’s up and running as usual!

    Thanks once again for taking the time to reply!

    Confused why a simple task is not complete?

    My guess is you have a second account. This is double so if you turned off auto renew and you're receiving a single charge this time, not both. My suggestion is to review your billing activity at billing.microsoft.com and login with your email address, if
    the invoices (Click on the credit card holding your charges) don't show two charges for separate subscriptions (Gold and Zune, etc), this confirms a second account has your credit card.

    If you want to avoid support due to your expierence, I'd start of with pulling up every gamertag you have on your console(s). Sign in to each gamertag, and go to social and select the avatar for that gamertag. Then go all the way to the right. Your windows
    live ID for that particular gamertag is going to be listed there. Sign in to each gamertag's windows live ID and verify you have no gold, and no charges (xbox.com and billing.microsoft.com respectively).

    Otherwise, call Xbox Support and ask them to look at each gamertag. If you TRUELY don't have a gamertag under your control with your credit card on it, you could talk to your bank for a dispute process, or you could ask support to run your credit card through
    their system and see the account is one you know about (But keep in mind, although you are the credit card holder, they still have privacy rules to protect people from mistakes and vigilante's). The least they can do at that point is at least remove your credit
    card from the account, stopping charges.

    I hope this helps.
