  1. Having payment issues gifting minecraft to a friend


    I own Minecraft and play it very frequently. My friend also wants Minecraft so I was going to gift it to him through my account. However, whenever I try to pay, I get an error saying "Contact us at Microsoft support We’re having trouble processing your payment and we’d like to get it sorted out."

    I saw a similar issue online and it says they contacted support and it fixed their problem. I have tried but customer support sucks and in zero help. I want to talk to a human and tried to call xbox support but the wait time is 108 minutes.

    Anyone, I tried gifting it to different email addresses but it still had an error. I tried using different payment method such as cards and paypal but they dont work either. I think the issue is that I didnt have any cards associated with my account and I made a purchase too soon after adding them.

    Again, it literally says to contact support but its just way too hard. Anyone have similar problems or know a way to talk to a human?

    :)
