    Switching Home Xbox


    When I tried switching my home Xbox to game share with my friend it said that I have already switched my home Xbox 5 times this year even though I only switched my home Xbox once. I also waited a year just to wait another year after switching my account
    once.

    :)

    Have you exceed the 3 home change limit? If so you will need to contact official support to request a reset.

    Hi NoobGaming,

    Thanks for your post. Unfortunately if you've ran out of switches there are no other ways to receive more. The best option would be to use the
    Contact Us
    portal to speak with an agent and explore options or possible work arounds.

    I hope this information helps, thanks again.

  6. Hi. Sadly the only way to attempt to get this sorted is to talk to an agent through Xbox Support
    . You can have a web chat or request a call back and an agent will ring you. We cannot access account details here and sadly its not an issue that can be fixed with a troubleshooter. Best of luck getting it sorted.

    Home xbox switches

    Customer support can’t offer additional switches. If you’ve made five home Xbox switches for the year and you need assistance, select Help when
    you see the message Can’t make this your home Xbox. You may be eligible to receive an exception. If he doesn't see the survey, he'll have to wait until his limit resets on its own.
    I know but the reset date has already passed so he should be able to gameshare

    Why didn't the password on the account get changed instead of this fighting over the account thing. You get 5 switches for the home console per year and then you have to wait for the first switch to timeout at the 365 day mark.

    Hello Skyler,

    We thank you for bringing this inquiry to our forums community, and understand that this concerns a request for one more Xbox One home console switch.

    Unfortunately, as per our how to designate an Xbox One console as your home Xbox support article:

    Note Customer support cannot offer additional switches. If your console shows you’ve made five home Xbox switches for the year and you need assistance, select
    Help when you see the message, Can’t make this your home Xbox. You may be eligible to receive an exception.

    We are unable to provide more switches for the home console setting on an Xbox One console.

    We hope that the information above as well as the article linked assist in providing the best information.

    Best wishes!

    Sounds like you might be learning a valuable lesson about what it means to break the rules. Your friends should not have access to your account.
