    microsoft balance not showing when i try to purchase add on

    Hello @AmyFrese, I hope everything is going well!

    Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

    I highly recommend following the troubleshooting steps here:

    After each step try to see if the issue is fixed!

    First, please select Settings > Network Settings > Advanced Settings > Alternate Mac Address > Clear it and the console should restart. It would definitely help if you could restart the internet router while the console is restarting.

    Then, select System > Settings > account > remove accounts and then select your account and select Remove to confirm.

    After you will need to perform a quick power cycle on your console, hold down the power button for about 10 seconds, until the console shuts off, then unplug the power cord and wait for 2 to 3 minutes before plugging it back in and turn on the Xbox.

    If you are still encountering the same issue, please select System > Settings > System > Console info > Select Reset console > Choose Reset and keep my games and apps.

    Note =>The "Reset and Keep my Games and Apps" option will not cause losing your games, but please be aware that you need to be completely aware of the email address as well as the password of your account before going for it because it will require you to sign in to the account.

    I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

    Kind Regards

    Stay safe, and happy gaming!

    Microsoft Balance not showing up

    Yes I understand, but the problem is that my balance is not showing up when purchasing the robux. Is there a way to add my Microsoft balance somehow?

    I can't seem to use my mircosoft gift card credits to buy games it's always asking to use my credit card any ideas

    Hello Bazzola79,

    Let me help you with your concern today. Please note that this is a public forum, I apologize for a delay in response.

    Sorry to hear you're having trouble using your Microsoft balance. Is your Microsoft Balance not showing as an option when you try to purchase? Can you please confirm if you're trying to purchase on Xbox or PC Microsoft Store?

    If your Microsoft balance is not showing up, please try to complete your purchase from the store through a browser. Please go to Xbox.com then check if your balance will show up during check out.

    I will be awaiting your response.

    Regards,

    Belle

    Microsoft balance isn’t showing whenever I try to purchase a game or add on

    Hi John, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    You can use your account balance to purchase games on the store, but, you also need to have a registered payment method, in case the balance is not enough to cover the price of the game you are purchasing.

    But it should display the account wallet on checkout.

    In this situation, the best course of action is to contact Support.

    Please enter this link:

    https://support.microsoft.com/home/contact

    Then, follow these steps:

    Type in your query: "Unable to complete a purchase"

    Click on Get Help.

    Scroll down the page and click on Contact Support.

    Select your "Other Products" and "Billing and payment updates" > Confirm.

    Select Chat with support agent > Confirm > Start Chat.

    I hope this helps.
