  1. Locked out of account an verification form won’t work


    My brother has been locked out of his account because he put in the wrong password and it’s now asking him to verify his account. He never uses the outlook email so hasn’t updated anything on their in a while and the phone number it’s sending the recovery too hasn’t been in use for 3 or more years. We did the verification form with him last night and received an email saying we haven’t provided enough information to prove it’s his account. I’ve been trying to get in contact with an actual person instead of a computer to see what we can do but he’s devastated. It won’t let us complete the form again and it seems however much information we supply it’s not good enough anyway??? Any help to get this sorted out? He’s 16 and has put a lot of money into Xbox which he’s seemingly lost now because this whole process.

    :)

    Locked out of account an verification form won’t work

    Hi Willow N, my name is Daniel and I would be happy to help.

    I'm sorry to hear that your brother lost access to his Outlook account. I know how frustrating it can be when this happens. Let's say that the only alternative you have at this moment is to send the account recovery form (Although you already mentioned that they have tried it many times, believe me, it is the only option to recover an account), I have also been through this situation and filled out the form approximately 6 or more times until they managed to verify that I was the owner of the account. If you allow me, I can give you some recommendations:

    The first thing is to enter information that the account has, in case a phone number or card has been deleted, you should simply omit that information and not add it to the form. That said, you can enter the following link:

    https://account.live.com/acsr

    Please note that Support cannot help recover accounts, but in that case if you want to contact them and talk in a live chat for more detailed information, you can access the following link.

    Support: https://support.xbox.com/contact-us/

    Thank you for being so kind and I wish you good luck.

    recovery team

    If maybe you're wondering about the recovery form.
    Usually that form is used when you forgot your account details

    When an account is compromised the help is more limited.
    If they detect fraudulent activity and there is no way to recover it (for example, the hacker enabled two steps verification) they lock it

    Lost phone number from account

    I have an account that I lost and there is a phone number verification but I lost that phone number and got a new one and I tried the recovery form but it dident work but I also have video proof that I have the account I tried the recovery form but it didn’t work
    The recovery form wont work if you have 2 step verification enabled.

    When you first enabled the phone number verification it would have given you several backup recovery codes which are meant to be used in this exact sort of situation. It would have told you to save them somewhere safe.

    Did you save those codes? If not unfortunately your account would be forever lost as having two step verification enabled also takes the ability to recover the account out of the hands of support

    they made this:
    Microsoft account To protect against fraud or abuse, Microsoft temporarily locks accounts when unusual activity occurs. To unlock your account, simply sign in to your Microsoft account and follow the instructions to get a security code. If you can't get a security code, or if your security code isn't working, go to When you can't sign in to your Microsoft account and follow the instructions under Can't get a verification code.

    So i think my account is not permantly but temporarily lock (but i can't get the verification code so i need to use reinstatment form)
