I was charged 1/31/25 for DiGITAL GOODS: GAMES, 7.61, I DONT GAME. IT MUST BE AN ERROR...

This isn't from Microsoft. You should contact your bank, and get it refunded.

Hi João,

I’m sorry to hear about the unexpected charges! That must be frustrating, especially since you don’t game anymore. Charges like these from "Digital Goods Games" are often associated with Microsoft or Xbox-related purchases, which could mean an old account or subscription might still be active, or someone might be using your card without permission.

To figure this out, I recommend checking if your card is linked to a Microsoft account. If you don’t recognize any accounts, someone may have acquired your payment info. Contact your bank or your payment provider to prevent more charges. Tell them your credit card has been stolen or compromised. If you only dispute the charges, there's nothing to prevent the fraudulent charges from happening again.

If you do have an account and you can see the charges in your Order History, you can request a refund with this link:

If you do have an account, check your Order History here:

I hope this gets resolved quickly for you. Let me know if you further guidance. I'm here to help you in any way that I can.

To redeem this code, you must link a payment method to your accounts, such as a credit or debit card. Under the perk it says the following:

To access Fallout 1st, you must have the Fallout 76 game, currently available on Game Pass Ultimate. The use of credit cards is mandatory. After the free month, the subscription fee will be charged each month, unless you cancel the plan. For use on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One consoles. You must agree to the terms at https://bethesda.net/document/terms-of-service. Not available in Japan and Russia. 1 per account. Request by 12/31/2021 and redeem by 1/31/2022.

I must have a good connection myself, because I only lose connection like this maybe once in every 25 games.

Damn... a little more research brought me to the probable root cause.. One of the GameService refuses to run. And the fix to that is to completely wipe out Windows, reformat disk, return to factory settings (and of course lose all personnal files).

Game Service error 31 - Search (bing.com)

Not worth the effort! This app is clearly not mature! Now I need to figure out how to cancel my Ultimate Pass before they start charging me for a service I cannot use.
