    So some how my password was changed on my account which left me with having to do "account recovery" ive done it over 5 or 6 times and spoke to multiple reps to try an get this sorted out. Im a streamer and also a content creater so with this going on
    it affects me greatly. But my question was is micorsoft wont help you get back into your account even though you've provided all the necessary information can you get a refund for all the games, add ons, movies and skins you payed for ?

    If you do an account recovery an Microsoft for some reason denies you, can you get your refund for all digital games, movies, skinks you bought?

    The process to recover your account is there so you can prove that you are the rightful owner of the account.

    In the past, malicious users had abused untrained support agents via social engineering to gain access to other people's account.

    To take the human factor out of the equation, you can only use the recovery form to try to prove you're the owner of the account.

    If you fail to provide that proof via the form, Microsoft can't know if you are the owner, of if you are trying to take over someone else's account from which you have gotten a few tidbits of personal information.

    Likewise, if you can't provide proof of account ownership, Microsoft can't give you the games on that account.

    Otherwise I could simply go to Microsoft, and tell them "Hey Microsoft, I totally forgot how to access *MY* ZionClay account. That ZionClay account is totally mine, and I just forgot my home address, and birthdate. But simply give me all the games on that
    account, and I'll be fine. Thank you. And oh, while you're at it, I also forgot how to access my Accounts "MajorNelson", "BarackObama", "E" and uhm, let me think, yeah. That were all my accounts. Simply refund me for all the games and we're good".

    Well thet deny the recovery if they feel the proof you gave is insufficient to prove that you are the owner. So if they think it's not ypur account there's no way they would refund anything to you. Also I don't think they would even be able to refund digital
    content anyway. The store tells you that whenever you buy digital stuff

    Hi there Ceara M.

    I am Lumie and I would love to assist you today. Please keep in mind we are users like you, not Microsoft.

    I am so sorry you are having issues with your account recovery.

    In order to get a refund, you must be able to recover the account first. Some banks also provide chargebacks if eligible.

    You should contact your bank to have the payments cancelled directly.

    The only system in place is the form.

    If you have none of these recovery options then unfortunately your only option would be to use the Account Recovery form here: [https://account.live.com/acsr ] as there is no way to prove your ownership otherwise.

    Microsoft agents also cannot open it for you remotely as they do not have the power to do so.

    Please be consistent with the form, you can do it twice a day everyday until you regain access.

    Try to do it in a geographical area you would usually sign in from. =)

    Here is more information on the form: [https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/b19c02d1-a782-dee6-93c3-dc8113b20c42]

    I understand you have tried before and been denied, but this does not mean you will always be denied as the system operates off probability. Consistent attempts lead to recovery.

    Once you can get in you can contact support or access your subscription / order history to request the refund.

    I hope this helps!

    Let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

    I tried verify my Xbox account munchies1000 but I can’t remember the password. I try to submit a form with my information but it says not enough info to validate. Does anyone know what to do?

    Hello Austin C,

    Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community. My name is Lumie and I'm happy to help.

    I'm sorry you're experiencing this problem. I understand how important recovering your account is to you.

    Important: The account recovery form can only be used if two-step verification isn't turned on.

    If you did not have 2FA active on the account, you will need to try the Account Recovery Form again: [https://account.live.com/acsr]

    Detailed steps on how to use the Account Recovery Form can be found here: [https://support.microsoft.com/office/b19c02d1-a782-dee6-93c3-dc8113b20c42]

    The form is the only recovery system in place that does not use your connected security information.

    I understand you have tried before and been denied, but this does not mean you will always be denied. Please keep trying, the system works on probability, consistency is key! You only need to pass once. =)

    Microsoft takes account security very seriously, that's why Account Recovery is an automated process with no human influence. If you don't have the correct information, you may not be able to get through account verification using the Recovery Form.

    The Account Recovery Form requires adequate information to prove that you are the owner of the account. The Account Recovery Process can be a time consuming process, but providing as much info as possible from the start of the process will increase the possibility of being verified by the automated process. You'll need to keep trying until you're verified by Microsoft.

    Remember to use a familiar device from which you've frequently accessed your Microsoft account, as well as a familiar location. Microsoft will review your responses and respond within 24 hours. If you are verified, instructions on how to log back into your account will be sent to you, and if you are not verified, you will need to submit the Account Recovery form again. You can do this up to 2 times every 24 hours.

    It's important to note that Microsoft Support will not be able to grant you access to your account, you will be sent back to the Account Recovery pages that have been linked above.

    If your Microsoft account recovery request was not granted or was unsuccessful, please click the attached link for more information: [https://support.microsoft.com/office/dc56c3e3-dff0-4ed5-8edb-60290eea6b53]

    While it might not be the outcome you are looking for, if you’re unsuccessful in recovering your account, then you will need to create a new Microsoft account. You can do that by clicking this link: [https://signup.live.com/]

    Let me know if you need more help.

    Lumie
