How can I stop my son from making purchases on Xbox without my permission? Can I manage...

Hi Emma *.

My name is Mauro and am glad to assist you.

Yes there is a different app that you can download to your phone called Xbox Family Settings app this app is not for all the regions available, you can check from your phone available for the App Store and Google Play:

Thanks,
Mauro

Only "Child Accounts and Teen Accounts" accesses can be altered by the "Parental Account." If the account your child uses was set up as an "adult account" the only way to block access is to monitor your child's activity yourself.

For information regarding parental settings/child settings please see this link to the Xbox Support page relating to these options:

On the 29th of December my son made multiple purchases buying v-bucks without our permission,which was our rent money

Hopefully your son didnt actually spend those vbucks in game. If he did then the refund will be denied.

Id also enable requiring a password at checkout to prevent him from buying things without permission again

My son purchased his xbox live access at Walmart then entered the code on the website. I don't know how it's done online. The part that seems common among everyone is the linking of the two profiles-the one on the xbox and the one created when parents
give their permission. To do that: without logging in to your xbox select download profile on that screen. You can then use that profile to play online. My son had the profile linking problem and downloading the profile fixed it.

Hi there Cordy, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

If you would like to apply for a refund, please visit the website mentioned below and log in with the Microsoft account used for the purchases:

https://support.xbox.com/help/subscriptions-billing/buy-games-apps/refund-orders

Please keep in mind that it may take up to 24 hours for the purchases to appear in the list of refundable orders. If you do not see them, you may need to wait for that time and then check again.

I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.
