  1. My online status is glitched/ALL messed up


    I’ve been having a major problem the past couple days and it’s made me so afraid to play literally anything on my Xbox One now. I first discovered it a few days ago. I start up a game for one second, I play that game for however long I want and then I close the game through my One like normal and now my online status says I’m still playing that game and it stays stuck that way for the entire day until the next day. I try going on different applications and it still says I’m on that one application I just closed. It’s made my friends confused and they thought I was online but I really wasn’t. Only way I can actually go offline nowadays is if I actually appear offline by setting it myself. I’ve tried everything I could to fix this problem (regular reset, hard reset, turn the Xbox off completely and unplug it) and nothing has worked. Changing my online status makes my current online status it glitch and then it undoes it. Not to mention literally everything takes so much more time to load than usual for me and it’s had me worried all week. I haven’t touched my One ever since this happened. I’ve started playing games offline on my One for the time being until I can find a way to fix this. If anyone knows how to fix this, please let me know as soon as possible. That’d be great. :’(

    This has been happening to other people as well and whenever you’re on YouTube, Netflix and twitch your status will just say “home” as well. I really hope they fix all of this soon! It’s definitely not just you, it seems to be an issue on Microsoft’s end.

    my rewards are all messed up

    Hello Fearless Rob 82,

    Pre-orders are not eligible for MyVIP, and therefore not eligible for VIP Boost offer. This is mentioned in both our MyVIP FAQ:



    What content on the Xbox Store is eligible for MyVIP?

    Normally, most purchases for Xbox 360 and Xbox One from the Xbox Store qualify, including full Games on Demand titles (excluding game pre-orders), arcade games, indie games, game add-ons, game Season Passes, movies, TV shows, TV seasons, themes and avatar
    items. In-game consumables, Xbox Live Gold memberships, Groove Music Passes, Microsoft Movies & TV Season Passes, and the purchase or redemption of Microsoft Points or Xbox Gift Cards, still do not qualify.



    and the FAQ for the offer:



    Which content is eligible for this offer?

    You must spend at least $XX before tax on qualifying MyVIP content from the Xbox Store and Microsoft Movies & TV during the offer period. Most purchases for Xbox 360 and Xbox One from the Xbox Store qualify, including full Games on Demand titles (game pre-orders
    do NOT qualify), arcade games, indie games, game add-ons, game season passes, themes, and avatar items. From Microsoft Movies & TV, qualifying content includes movies, TV shows, and TV seasons. However, in-game consumables, Xbox Live Gold memberships, Groove
    Music Passes, Microsoft Movies & TV Season Passes, and the purchase or redemption of Microsoft Points or Xbox Gift Cards do not qualify.

    Since your purchases since November (with the exception of your Rainbow Six Siege Pass) have all been pre-orders, they have not awarded payback. Since your purchases in February were pre-orders (except the Siege Pass), you did not complete the VIP Boost
    offer.

    Regarding your wife's VIP Payback, without having her gamertag, we cannot provide a thorough investigation. However, it sounds like you are expecting payback early. From our FAQ:

    When will my MyVIP Rewards Credits be deposited into my Microsoft account?

    The total Rewards earned will be calculated at the end of each month. Typically you'll receive your MyVIP earnings in your account by the 15th of the following month, though this is subject to the program's current deposit
    terms. Be sure to keep an eye on MyStatement on the
    MyRewards page to track your progress and watch your Rewards Credits total grow!

    We only recently calculated last month's MyVIP, so you may have missed this Credit event.
