  1. Restricted account


    I just got the new Xbox after not playing my 360 in around 10 years. When trying to buy Xbox Live, I am told I need to ask the organizer of my account for access. The organizer of the account was my old email from 15 years ago, and I have no access to it. I do not remember the security questions from when I was 10, nor the card used to purchase games, or any of the other questions. I fear I will be locked out of my account and not have access to my previously purchased games and DLC. There is no way to access this old email, and the account recovery does not want to let me into the account. What can I even do here? I am extremely frustrated about this

    :)

    Account restrictions

    You would need to post here to find out why your account has been suspended -

    Although, if you're able to sign into your account here, then it's not suspended.

    Account Restricted

    Did you check the enforcement website?

    Are there any restrictions on your account on the website?

    If there are no restrictions, try the solutions below on your console.

    Solution 1:

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > Account > Remove accounts.

    Select the account that you want to remove, and then select Remove to confirm.

    Restart your console

    Solution 2:

    Press the Xbox button.

    Open Settings

    Go to Network and select Network settings.

    Select Advanced settings.

    Select Alternate MAC Address.

    Select Clear.

    Select Restart.

    Hiya!!

    I can understand your frustration on this. Since you have already made the changes to the account, try to do a hard reset on the console by pressing and holding down the power button on the console till it shuts off and then power back on. This will refresh
    the cache within the system and hopefully this will apply the settings you have changed. :)

    Happy Gaming!!

    Account restrictions

    I am not sure about the policy but could look into it. My only other thought would be sometimes the profile asks for the birthdate and maybe that has something to do with it. I believe this can be adjusted in the edit profile page after clicking the
    home button and going to your profile page. Hope this helps!

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    Kindly sign in to https://account.xbox.com/settings, from here kindly "block" the settings that have an arrow on this screenshot and then click "submit", once done "allow" them again then submit. Restart your device after making the changes. This is to re-sync your account restriction.
