  1. Issues with blocking and removing players on XBL


    Hi, does anyone has a similar issue like me that when you block or remove someone from your friend list that you unfriend them or even force them to unfollow me (by blocking them) and after you removing them/block them, you still are able to receive online
    notification of them online even though they are not in your friend list. Now my followers still stays the same even though it says they did not follow me(when i block them it force them to unfollow me).Also, they are still be able to add me to follow me and
    also join my own game. It also still says that player is my follower on the follower section but when i open his profile it didnt have the you that is beside the number of his friends. I also tried to block them from xbox.com also no luck. I am really tired
    of seeing players that harassed me having online notification on my xbox when i already block them..... Does someone know how to fix this?

    :)

    Can't delete friends or stay away from blocked players

    Hey there USMC Decoy.

    If you download the Xbox App and try removing friends from there, do you have any trouble removing old friends? Keep in mind blocking players does not guarantee you won't be matched with them, it only only guarantees prevention of communication.

    Xbox detects internet connection but cannot connect to LIVE

    Yeah I'm with AT&T so it's not a problem with the provider. XBL is simply having issues.

    I just wish they could find some way to communicate this to the console, so we don't get "Your modern or router is probably blocking access to XBL" garbage. I hate to think how many poor users are driving themselves mad resetting things and waiting on hold
    to their ISPs.

    Issues with blocking and removing players on XBL

    Hey there lXRainy CandyXl!

    Sorry to hear about the issue! Have you tried removing and blocking the user using the Xbox One SmartGlass app on either iOS, Android, or Windows Phone?

    Also, I have sent you a
    Private Message to collect some more information regarding this issue.

    Post back here and let us know if using the SmartGlass app did the trick for you or not! Issues with blocking and removing players on XBL :)

    I'm also have the same issue. I even tried contacting the person to try and help figure out the problem but the person is unresponsive. All I could think was the problem is, the other player and I were friends on the Xbox 360 and when the person moved to
    the Xbox one, unfriended me there. Because of that, they don't show up on my list, but still considers me a follower. I've tried everything from blocking on both xbox one, 360, and the app. And still nothing. It's not the worse thing in the world, but its
    annoying. I'm afraid to delete, add or re add people in case this does it to others. I was hoping the person would re add me on the 360 so we can properly remove each other, but spme people sell thier 360s after moving on so it shouldn't come to that.

  9. I've been having a similar problem for sometime now. I have two friends (nope, I'm not a social butterfly) and 9 followers, 7 of which are unwanted. I have blocked them both using the website and Xbox Live, yet they remain. I don't use the smartglass app.
    Not sure why there isn't an option to disable this feature. I understand a lot of people like this feature and that's great, but it's not for everyone and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Thanks.

    Yes I have tried blocking the users on my xbox one that's how blocking works isn't it? I did that and the notification STILL pops up when they come online and they aren't even on my friend list nor am I following them! It's so annoying.

  15. I found out the only way is when u remove a new person that u want to block, dont do it on the xbox do it on xbox.com and remove them first and then block them.
