    Security Code


    Anytime i want to grab something on the website it says I need to validate my security and asks that I input my email to receive a code. But I don't ever get the code and it has been like this for months. I decided to use my phone number and it now won't
    let me buy anything for a month and of course to undo this you need to validate your security using the code that will not send!

    I need help as I cannot have Microsoft call me as it won't accept my English phone number as valid -_-

    :)

    Hi there FSUCOP DCB,

    The verification step is there to protect your account from unauthorized access to personal information and downloads from Xbox Live. You can disable this feature by logging in here:
    Sign in to your Microsoft account and going to "security info" It is called two step verification. Hope your problem gets resolved.

    If you know your email and password you can go to https://account.microsoft.com/ sign in and click on the blue security tab at the top of page. Then click update info (it should be in the center of the screen).
    Then click add security info. I would recommend adding a phone number. Then just have the code sent to your phone. You can also add another email.

    Please let me know if this helps you. Happy Gaming!!!

    @crafty1992: Please sign in with your Microsoft account email at account.live.com and update the email association and/or security features of your account.

    Should you encounter anymore issues, please turn off two-step verification.

    Here's how:

    1.Sign in to your Microsoft account.

    2.If prompted to validate your identity, enter the security code that was sent to your device.

    3.Select Security & privacy, and then select More security settings.

    4.Under Security settings, scroll down to Two-step verification.

    5.Select Turn off two-step verification, and then confirm the change when prompted.

    Update me of the progress please. Security Code :)

    Hello TheodoreBrent,

    Thanks for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are unable to receive a security code to your security information so it was updated, but it's going to lock your account for thirty days. You would like to know what options are available
    to speed up the process. We have a support article on our website that provides more information about

    the security information update    . The article states, "We can't expedite this process." We suggest following the steps in the article and confirming the new security information after the thirty days has passed. We hope this information helps
    TheodoreBrent!
