Banned Console

OP that why you never get secondhand console. Even like thee faces of GAMESTOP. You are more better buy a fresh one from like GAMESPOT. Because you will have safety net for one year when it broke down. And it will guarantee connect to XBL. I see this
way. I will not buy secondhand console those days. Even with online gaming those days. And console can be banned from XBL. So I hope this helps.

Take it back to rent a center console bans are not reversed

If the console was banned, there is surely a reason for it. Return it to the RAC right away. If you wait too long, they may become suspicious that you caused the problem, which you didn't.

Hi! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

Unfortunately when a console is sold or given away, it doesn’t change the status of its existing device ban. Even if the ownership changes and the console is reset to factory settings, the device ban is still there and can’t be lifted.

If you’ve bought a banned, secondhand Xbox console or device and you can’t sign in or connect to the network, contact the previous owner or retailer.

That's why you don't buy secondhand consoles from private sellers, secondhand from stores is ok as they are warrantied with that store.
