    My microsoft account was hacked yesterday and 5 game codes were purchased - does anybody...


    My Microsoft account was hacked yesterday and 5 game codes were purchased and gifted to a random email address - the total purchase amount was around £175. I have been desperately trying to contact Xbox and Microsoft but to no avail, does anybody know what I can do?

    I have submitted a refund request but also read online used codes cant be refunded, so what am I supposed to do if Microsoft won't take this seriously? I have already reported to my bank but not sure if they'll do anything. Please does somebody know what to do?

    :)

    Hi Kyle,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I have tried to contact Microsoft and Xbox repeatedly but to no avail.

    I have even resubmitted a refund request with Xbox about this and have received nothing from them. Xbox won't connect me with a human agent and Windows agents keep saying it's an Xbox issue. Not much help from either.

    So I am unsure of what to do at this point.

    If you have any other way that I can try that would be great

    Hi Amber. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

    > have already reported to my bank but not sure if they'll do anything.

    Please note that if your bank submits a chargeback for these payments, that would be considered marketplace theft and could risk your account being permanently banned from Microsoft services. In the event of receiving unauthorized charges on your account, you should always contact Microsoft first. If you just report it to your bank, Microsoft will not know that the charges were unauthorized and will simply treat it as fraudulent behaviour.

    Since we cannot access account or billing details on this forum, you may contact Microsoft Store support for help with this. See their contact options here: https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/4f615f2a-6bbd-fd69-6695-ae213d63eef0
