    Unable to buy any 360 games/add-on with money/free or even included with XBox Live Gold


    I can reproduce the error always everyday since December 16, 2018 and we are now January 13, 2019. I talked to at least 7 "human" from Microsoft service without any useful result, and barely useful exchanges.

    Error occurs using android phone browser, xbox one console, or browser from Windows 10.

    I have SR with Microsoft [Mod Removed – Personal Information] [Mod Removed – Personal Information] [Mod Removed – Personal Information], [Mod Removed
    – Personal Information]
    , but Microsoft Support doesn't seem to have any concept of escalating issue to someone high enough that understand software.

    So I have generated dozens of errors like the following and gave it to support and they seems unable to use the information for useful investigation:

    Uh oh... that shouldn't have happened. It appears you've found a glitch in the system. Please try again later.

    Hi there,

    can you provide some additional information like:

    1. Are there any payment options connected to your Microsoft Account (base for the Xbox Live Account)

    2. What device are you using to try and purchase the content. Since purchasing content on a different device then a Xbox 360 does require a valid payment option even the free content.

    3. Are your location and your Xbox Live Account region both supported Xbox Live Regions and the same, to verify see this link:
    https://www.xbox.com/live/countries

    and
    https://live.xbox.com/Account/BillingAccountInformation


    4. Do any issues who at
    http://account.microsoft.com
    at the subscriptions or payment options

    With information based on those items, some suggestions might be possible on what to try.

    Let us know the results

    You can only buy 360 games from a 360 console, when trying to use the money on your account. The 360 marketplace "back end" is different than the one for Xbox One.

    From the Xbox One, you can buy 360 games with a CC or paypal just not the funds that are on your account.

    If you need/want to buy a 360 game with your funds, you'll need to get your account on a 360 console and make the purchase.

    There is nothing that Xbox Support can do for this.

    https://majornelson.com/blog/xbox-one-backward-compatibility/

    From the site above:

    "A few things to note:

    The Xbox 360 Marketplace and the Xbox One Store websites use different architecture, so if you have credit but no payment option associated with your account, you won’t be able to use the credit to purchase Xbox 360 titles. You will have to add a payment option
    or purchase the title using an Xbox 360 console."

    After at least 6 different reaching to Microsoft support, and 5 support requests, it's now working!

    Strangely, while the issue with buying 360 was occurring I was also unable to post question in this forum, then they got fixed at the same time, I'm not sure why. Last things I did on my side was to remove myself from family, where I was the only member.
    I talked so many hours with Microsoft support than maybe somebody got tired, and started to take took a look at the log files... For hours, nobody understood what to do with these code, mn, req unique identifier... oh well.

    Have you tried a different browser by chance? Or made sure you have accurate billing info on file as WPAK suggested, Also was it working previously for you or has it never worked?
