  1. I cannot download games because Xbox won't allow it. Should I cancel my subscription?


    Dear Xbox Support,

    I am writing to report an issue I am experiencing with downloading a game on my Xbox PC app. The game in question is rated for ages 14 and up. Despite the fact that I am 22 years old, I am unable to download the game.

    I have checked my account settings and verified that my date of birth is correct. I am unsure why I am encountering this age restriction problem. Could you please assist me in resolving this issue so that I can download and play the game?

    Thank you for your assistance.

    :)

    Hi Mateus, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    Your Xbox account age starts from the Date of Birth you entered when creating your profile online.

    Once you hit 18, it becomes an adult account automatically. Just make sure your birthday on the account is correct.

    In this situation, the best course of action is to contact Support and provide the necessary information to validate your date of birth.

    Please enter this link: https://support.microsoft.com/home/contact

    Then, follow these steps:

    Type in your query: "Agent"

    Click on Get Help.

    Scroll down the page and click on Contact Support.

    Select your "Other Products" and "Billing and Account Profile Questions" > Confirm.

    Select "Chat with a support agent in your web browser" > Confirm > Start Chat.

    I hope this helps.

    I Cannot Connect To Xbox Live

    It still won't allow me to download the profile because it says there is a system update available from Xbox Live, but I cannot connect to Live, therefore I cannot download the update. What should I do? Any help appreciated.

    Time to clean up the black ops servers.

    I just cancelled my subscription because of all the hacks and cheaters. I won't pay another dime for xbox live.

    Can't download BFBC2

    So, just to be clear, I won't be able to download any region locked games because the 3 regions have to match (console region, account region AND physical region)?

    Well, that really sucks. I'm cancelling my gold subscription.

    Can't migrate account

    I do not wish to cancel my gold subscription because if it is not causing the problem they said that they cannot reactivated. Support said that I should wait for it to expire and try again. So I guess that is what I will do.
