The sound of unlocking Achievements

I find hearing those sounds cute and don't want anything changed about it.

Achievement notifications are fine, but those big fat Windows 8 styled boxed notifications ALWAYS appear on the bottom centre of the screen.

Xbox 360's notification system is SMARTER because it appears either on the top centre, top left, top right, bottom right or bottom left of the screen especially in while playing games. The Xbox 360's Dashboard's algorithms are smart enough to make the notification
bubble appear on your screen where it less likely interfers with the game. With Xbox 1, you just get a big fat notification box which always comes up in the bottom centre of the screen.

I do like it how you can customize the colour of achievement notifications on Xbox 1, mine's orange.

Myself, i would change the "notification" sounds - For example, the sound when a friend comes online it would be different from an achievement ( like a knock on the door) and when you get a message that could sound like a phone ringing, But the achievement
itself would stay the same.

Hey there, sounds like you might have them on your favourites list if a notification pops up when they're online:

support.xbox.com/.../add-friend-to-favorites

I believe if they're not in your favourites, then you shouldn't be seeing a notification for them.

This is happening to me and other people too! It seems to be an issue on Microsoft’s end. Hopefully they fix it soon!

It sounds like they've been trying to fix the notification system so they've changed the wording to a suspension (which is correct) instead of the permanent ban message that everyone was getting (which was incorrect). You were never permanently banned, the notification was just wrong.
