    Custom gamerpic issue


    Hello, I am having an issue on the xbox beta app. I want to change my gamer picture to a custom one but when I try it tells me that I cannot because I'm not over 18, but my accounts birthday is over 18 and I don't understand why this is happening. Can anyone
    help? Please and thank you!

    :)

    one thing I have found that may be useful in this situation...

    There is a difference in adult content settings and an actual adult account.

    Anyone can say they are any age by putting in any birthdate.

    The only way Xbox can actually verify that you are actually an adult is if you have
    a credit card that is in your name associated with your account.

    Xbox One Custom Gamerpic Issue

    After Microsoft recently rolled out the new option for everyone with an adult account to upload custom gamerpics and set them as their gamerpics after being approved, I was very excited, however after repeated attempts, I was met repeatedly with a message
    saying I must be older to set a custom gamerpic. When my account was first created a year or 2 ago, it was accidentally set as a child account at the age of 15-16. After chatting with an Xbox Support Agent who was very friendly, I was told that even though
    my account had been fixed awhile back and is now an adult account with the proper age, the system recognizes it as the original and that I would simply have to wait out the 2-3 years for it to naturally graduate what it thought was a child account to an adult
    account. Is there anyway Microsoft/Xbox that you could improve and or fix this in the system. It is very upsetting and disheartening that a feature I have been waiting quite awhile for is finally out but I can't use it for years on end due to the system recognizing
    the wrong details in my account. If possible, please respond asap. A loyal Xbox gamer and fan, Bryce.

    Issues with custom gamerpic

    I'll get right to the point.

    I wanted to changed my custom gamerpic to another custom gamerpic. However, after a few moments after changing it to the new one, it resets to the defult gamerpic. I tried to change it several times but all times resulted in it going back to defult.

    I decided to go back and select the old custom gamerpic I was using, again after a few moments it would reset to the defult one.

    I did this on PC a couple months ago with a few other gamerpics and all of which were fine, now im having issues.

    Is there any way I can resolve this? Furthermore is anyone else having this issue?
    Update, the issue is still ongoing, it is still reseting my gamerpic back to defult, I don't know why this is happening, can someone please give me a explnation on why it is doing this?
