Due to change of phonenumber for securety can't pay for new month xbox gold untill 9th jan 2019

JuliusHoff · Dec 15, 2018

My security features make it when i do a payment on microsoft acc i get an sms with a code, that phone died together with sim-card and is not retreavable. So yesterday i changed my phonenumber and it said my security features are locked until 9th of januari
2019, i though oke good for you guys but wasnt really thinking ahead because i had to re-new subscription of xbox gold after that.. I bouth a giftcard €10,-(bought & uploaded before changing feature) thinking i could re-new sub after that. Answer is no, option
is to go back to my old phonenumber, but that's impossible and the reason i changed it anyway. So now im locked in can't play with friends untill a week and 2 day in the new year.. and don't know if buying an xbox gold card and triying it this way will work.
I dont want to waste my money there's enough for re-sub in my acc that i can't use now...

Suggestions or maybe an answer?

Thanks!

The 30 day waiting period is to protect accounts from being hijacked when too much security information is changed too quickly.

You could revert the change and then talk to Xbox support about removing your 2 step verification that requires your phone (to stop the sms that's needed for purchases), or you will need to wait that 30 day period.

Anyways, I would contact Xbox support for more help:

1. Click My Account

2. See further options

3. Security and Password

4. Manage account

5. Contact options

6. Chat with Xbox support.

It's best to create a new thread for proper assistance, but if you purchase Ultimate it will convert your gold into Ultimate as well (ie. if you buy 1 month, you'll have Ultimate until Jan. 2021). You won't have to pay again until after that ends.

Hi,

Did anyone receive the GOW 4 digital code?

I just checked and the promotion date is now showing from November 22, 2018 to January 31, 2019. Does this mean that we will receive the code on 9th Feb instead of 9th Jan?
