    You can't buy xbox live with your account money.

    You need a xbox live subscription card,a credit/debit card or paypal account to buy xbox live.

    Help with microsoft account money

    A friend from Canada gifted me a 25$ gift card. I couldn't use it since I'm in Croatia but when i changed my Locale to Canada it worked. Now on xbox.com on my account it says i have 25$ (I'm also missing 5.75$ from that sum since i gathered that from xbox
    live rewards). The money doesn't appear on xbox 360 besides the 5.75$. I'm missing 25$.

    When i try to buy something on xbox.com it doesn't let me even though it says i have 25$. On Xbox it only shows 5.75, and i can buy something with that but didn't yet.

    I wanna buy gold in World of tanks, but Can't since the money isn't on my xbox 360 account.

    Its weird because on xbox.com i have 25$ and when i find a game for 20$ lets say it still doesn't let me buy it.

    Help Please!!!

    I would like a response from the xbox staff if possible, I just wanna have some more fun with the game and support Microsoft.

    Thanks in advance!!!

    It's never been possible to use the currency on your account to purchase Live. It's not set up to work with a recurring subscription.

    Can't manage payment options

    I have found a temporary solution to get around the error but, you need to have a second xbox live account (silver or gold doesn't matter).

    So to do this you need to have money on your second account then buy what you want to buy, then download the item, then you just sign in to your main account and you should have the item(do this all on Xbox NOT YOUR PC).

    I hope this helps you.

    A few questions about transferring licenses to another console...

    I see. Let's say my friend lives in the UK, and I live in the US. Now I wanna share Destiny with her, so I let her use my account to buy Destiny on her console so she could play it. I have enough money on my account to buy Destiny, would there be any problems
    or violations if I let her use my account to buy Destiny because she's in the UK? Would she be able to use my MS money to buy it without any problems?

    EA ACCESS

    Because you have to buy a yearly/monthly sub so it needs payment option it can charge when it's time to renew your susbscription.

    It's the same reason you can't buy xbox live with money in your Microsoft account.
