    Locked out of my account, but for how long?


    This is certainly very confusing and frustrating as I have two different accounts. The one I'm logged into right now was setup to be used for college, which is now run apparently through Microsoft. And the other one I setup much further back specifically for my Xbox gaming. However, earlier this morning I got an email that someone tried to log into my account. I used the same email address for the accounts but with different passwords. At the time I couldn't remember my other password, so I just made a second account. Both of them are under the same first name so there shouldn't be any confusion whatsoever, since I'm not falsifying anything or doing anything nefarious. I changed my password a couple of times and tried using the Microsoft authentication app, yet this didn't help because when I went to log into my Xbox account it wouldn't accept my password. It finally accepted my password but then never logged me in, still said I was signed out. For whatever reason I can use the Xbox app and log in to see all of my games and achievements, but not sign in and use the same account when I turn my Xbox One on to play. Am I doing something wrong?

    Now it says I am locked out of my Microsoft account because I've tried to log in too many times, which doesn't help me since I can't even change my password, so that this won't happen again. Will I lose all of the saved data or digitally downloaded games from my Xbox account if this can't be resolved?

    :)

    My Home Xbox

    How long will I be locked out of my account? I can prove its my account so why should i be locked out. Microsoft should have a solution for this, If i change my password it should make anyone who has the old password sign in with the new password! but nooooo
    they have to make everything hard.

    P.S

    he wasnt a friend just a assigned roommate at my college.

    Another FIFA Hack

    My account got hacked also. Made a claim with Xbox last night and I can still log onto my account. I wonder how long it's supposed to take to lock it?

    Hey mate, sorry to hear about your troubles. Do you still have access to the email account tied to your Xbox Live profile? If so, there might be chance of changing your password and regaining access. If not, and you no longer have access to the email address,
    know the password, or know your security question, there isn't a whole lotta hope in getting access to your account. Auto Renew isn't a contract, and you're welcome to cancel it at any time. You won't be able to get a refund for time already purchased, but
    contacting PayPal and asking them to stop the automatic payments is probably your best option and there shouldn't be any repercussions from Xbox, aside from no longer being able to access Gold features, although it sounds like you haven't been able to regardless.

    well i believe the email was deleted along time ago or i just have no idea what it is. the policy is flawed because i have ways of identifying myself as the account holder but they would rather have me tell them an email that hasn't been used in years or
    might not exist anymore. i have had many problems in the past with xbox and its always been confusing nonsense that could have been easily settled if there wasn't so much bureaucracy involved. so i believe im going to get rid of my xbox and start over with
    playstation. half of my friends have done it because they were fed up with microsoft and have had no complaints since. so microsoft you just lost another customer.

    They have their own security policies in place, I understand that's frustrating but you'd need to give them the information that's on the file of that account and whatever else they ask for. I'm sorry that you're having to go through this but you won't be
    able to get access to that e-mail until you're able to do so.
