    Gifted Game Refund


    Hiya, I just bought a game for a friend and gifted it. We both live in Europe but when he received the code he couldn't redeem it as we were in different regions. As he couldn't redeem it, I want to get a refund but there is no option for me to do so. Can anyone help :/

    Thanks!

    :)

    Why can't you refund gifts?

    No as they are one-time.use

    As per the terms of the gift once redeemed it can't be refunded

    Gifts can only be refund if it hasn't been redeemed

    If any of those conditions are met.you cannot refund it

    The refund policy otherwise only apply for Purchased games not gifted games under 14 days or 2hours of gameplay

    Gift games.conditions are unused or Same region as the gifter that's it

    This is the same with any giftcard

    How do I access the game if I was not given a code?

    You can request a refund by signing in to https://xbox.com/refunds.

    I would recommend waiting for the email from the refund team before re-purchasing the game as a gift. When purchasing the game as a gift you will see the "Buy as a gift" option.

    I messed up

    It was within 10 minutes of my request. But I bought it as a gift also and it seems they have this policy.



    Returns and Refunds. Gifts may be canceled and refunded to the Gift purchaser up to 14 days after the purchase or until redeemed by the Gift recipient, whichever occurs first. Gift recipients are not entitled to a refund or cooling off period, and you acknowledge that no refund will be made, except as required by law.

    Now the gift was 'redeemed by the gift recipient' but obviously she cant play it because she doesnt have the base game and now there is no way to request a refund. So that kind o' sucks but hey I did get my refund and she has Xbox One so we can purchase the base game and all will be ok. :)

    Purchased game in wrong account, was meant to be a gift

    The only way is to get a refund for the game here xbox.com/refund, then purchase the game as a gift.

    Hello Fellow gamer,

    Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We see you have a question about a donated/gifted game. Unfortunately, you would not be able to get a refund for a game gifted or given to you. If someone gifted the game, they would need to try for the refund.

    Thanks,

    Brad
