Constant requests for security proofs.

aDisabledNamVet · Jan 16, 2014

I am constantly being asked about security proofs every time I log in. When this first started it happened about once a week, and while annoying, it was still bearable. Now it asks me every other day. It doesnt matter if I hit "Yes, this one works" or "No,
it doesnt work", I still tried to make me add a security proof. I only have 1 email address, the one that I use for my account, so I cant add another one. And I already have my phone under the proofs so I cant add another phone number. Is there any way for
it to stop asking me about security proofs since I already have all i can already on my account...

Constant friend requests.

Turn off messages from appearing on screen in the app or on your console in the settings

Constant friend requests.

Friend requests shouldn't be sending you a message on the Xbox One, as the person is just becoming a follower. So it's not that big of a deal as it's not really an annoyance in any way.Click to expand...

I only said friend request because it says Added as friend in my activity log.

Hey mate, if you did this through the console? It has issues verifying them so I suggest you do it through the PC by following the link and clicking on 'Manage your security info' and sign-in to verify the mobile number:

support.xbox.com/.../add-security-proof

-

If you're still receiving the prompt, delete your profile from the console (profile only), clear the system cache. Restart the console and re-download your profile.

It needs 2 proofs. You can use phone numbers or e-mails but it requires two. I had the same annoying issue until I read the fine print.

I suggest you just create a secondary e-mail and use that. Just sign into once every 3 months so it doesn't get cancelled out and you'll be fine and Xbox will stop bothering you about these proofs.

Once the 30 day hold is put into place the ONLY way to cancel the request to change your security proof is to gain access to the old security proof to put the code in.

But I'm guessing this is the origin of my MS Account switch issues.

This doesn't happen to everyone, most of my friends only had the security question show up once

So there should be a solution

I've been doing that for over a year (I don't always ask for a code)

But still it annoys me. I don't want it to ask me.
