Microsoft 30 day Security info uupdate

If you updated your security info there is a 30 day waiting period that cannot be bypassed even by Xbox support.

Why does resetting my security information take 30 days?

• The 30-day waiting period helps Microsoft stop unauthorized people from trying to completely take over an account that isn't theirs. For example, an unauthorized person obtaining an account password through phishing or shared passwords across third
  party platforms. This waiting period gives the real account owner enough time to be alerted of any major changes and to cancel it if they didn't make those changes.
• During this 30-day period, you'll still be able to access most Microsoft services. You won't, however, be able to do things that require a security code, like changing your password, viewing billing information, or buying new apps or games from Microsoft
  Store or on Xbox.
• After the process of resetting your security information has started, you must wait the full 30 days for it to complete. However, if you regain access to a piece of your original security info, you can cancel the replacement yourself.

Microsoft do not fully delete any old information for 30 days, so you wont be able to sign in to your Microsoft account with your new info for 30 days. The waiting time is to deter hackers from updating your security info and gaining access to your account
without your knowledge. Sorry.

Hi there,

yes, as far as I know, after that 30 days you should be able to change the security details again.

I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the community. How are you?

If the password has been changed, you will need to enter the new password to log into the account. If you haven't changed your password you probably won't have to do anything to your account in the console.

Nope that's something you should've kept up to date
