  1. Paypal charged instead of Xbox live credit


    I pre-ordered Gears of War 4 about 30 minutes ago after quickly getting my xbox gift cards (£50) to get the pre-order stuff and it's bloody charged my paypal account

    whilst my live account still has the £50 in it! I need a refund asap and the money to be taken of my live account (which its what it is there for)! i can believe this, i bought

    a xbone 3 days ago just to get this, the *** game goes live in 7 minutes!

    How to Manage your Xbox LIVE payment options

    Overview

    You can choose to use more than one payment method for your Xbox LIVE account. The payment options include credit cards and PayPal accounts. You can use these payment options to buy items from Xbox LIVE Marketplace.

    The 2-year Xbox LIVE Gold Contract uses only credit cards as the payment option. The other payment options like Debit Cards, Prepaid cards and PayPal are not valid for this subscription. However, you can change your payment to another credit card.

    If it is before the end of the two years and there is no credit card associated with your account, it is assumed you have terminated the subscription, and you will be charged an Early Termination Fee and any applicable taxes.

    It is easy to edit your payment options on your console or at Xbox.com

    Steps to Follow

    Add or change a payment option using your console

    1) Use your Xbox LIVE gamertag to Sign in.

    2) Proceed to Settings and then select Account.

    3) Select Manage Payment Options, and then choose either of the following:
    • If you want to add a new credit card, select Add Credit Card.
    • If you want to use your PayPal account on Xbox LIVE, select Add PayPal. You will be required to enter your PayPal username and password. Follow the instructions to add PayPal as a payment option. You cannot use PayPal as a payment option for the 2 year Xbox LIVE Gold Contract. PayPal is not available in all regions.
    4) After making changes to payment options, select Update Payment Option.

    Add or Change a payment option on Xbox.com

    1) Go to My Account.

    2) Select Payments and Billings and click on Manage Payment Options.

    3) You may be required to Sign in using your Microsoft account (email and password).

    4) Proceed to do either of the following:

    If you want to edit a payment option, select Edit.

    If you want to add a payment option, you can do either of the following:
    • Click on Add New Credit Card and enter the credit card information
    • Click on PAY with PayPal and follow the instructions.

    YOU CAN BUY XBOX LIVE CARDS WITH POINTS!!!!

    No you can't.

    You have never been able to buy xbox live with your account money.

    It has to be a credit/debit card,paypal account or a xbox live subscription card.

    If you bought live then it would of been charged to your paypal account.

    Using microsoft credit to buy a PC Game Pass

    Thank you for your assistance, it seems that the issue here is that when trying to buy the PC Game Pass the only options that show up are Paypal and Debit/Credit Card, no option says "use Microsoft balance", will by selecting Paypal option the charge come from the balance instead of PayPal?

    Payment and billing

    Hello,

    For Auto-Renews such as EA Access, or Xbox Live require a credit or debit card. (Or PayPal if you have it). The card is not charged if you cancel it in time for only 1 month to be charged.

    Best Regards,

    Vince
