    My Account keeps getting locked


    My account keeps getting locked when I sign into it, an hour later they sign me out so I unlock it with a phone number and the same thing occurs so I contact a live agent and they tell me to recover my account or change my password none of those work because
    if I try to recover my account they just lead me to change my account password and if I change my password, they won't care and they will still lock my account. I'm pretty sure that they think that someone broke into my account because it says I violated the
    terms of service but no one else did that on Microsoft rewards, it was me, and also how can someone break into my account if I have 2 step verification and the Microsoft authenticator app. Microsoft Please stop locking my account it's so annoying and I can't
    use it anymore because Microsoft locks it. I have lots of progress in games and I am not about to make another account to grind for everything again. Just stop locking it, please.

    :)

    Reasons I've seen this happen:

    1. Multiple accounts registered on the same IP in a short amount of time (ex: Creating 5 Microsoft accounts in 5 minutes on the same wifi/device) This causes your IP to be marked as spam

    2. You've used that phone number to verify multiple accounts and you've used that phone number the max amount of times (Eventually this timer resets but I'm not sure entirely when, I believe it's about a month)

    Way you can get around this:

    1. Try registering your account on a different IP address (at your friends house, at work, etc)

    2. Use a different phone number. (ask to use a trusted friends phone number or a family member, make sure it's someone you trust as this is important info they'll be receiving and you're responsible for your account)
