unable to use any form of credit card

never heard of Microsoft currency. I have tried every credit card I have and MICROSOFT refuses all of them for purchasing gems for cooking fever. I even put money in Pay Pal and Microsoft refuses pay pal from me when I try purchasing. I chatted with them
and they said that all forms are on hold because they believe I am trying to commit fraud. What a crock of [Mod Removed - Profanity] in my mind.

Normally the Visa gift cards that are purchased at stores like that do not work for purchases on Xbox and this is through the Bank that handles the gift card because they are thinking that you are trying to purchase a renewing subscription and these types
of purchases can not be made with the gift cards like that.

Hello LeonardSchultzWU!

Thanks for reaching out to Xbox forums support. I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues with your payment instrument / making purchases.

I would suggest setting up a call back from an Xbox Live support agent by following the steps below. The agent would be able to look into your billing account and see what might be causing that issue.

As provided above the best way to reach Live Support would be here:
https://support.xbox.com/contact-us#0

Step 1 ----Select Xbox One

Step 2 ----Select See other options

Step 3 ----Select topic (Ex. System Update)

Step 4 ----Select "Show contact options"

Step 5 ----Select request a call from support



I hope this helps a bit more. Let us know!

Hello LeonardSchultzWU,

Thank you for keeping us updated. We understand that it can be frustrating when purchases are unable to be completed. The Xbox Support Team provided an explanation
for why the purchases are restricted. As XBF Felixx P stated, you can attempt to utilize your

Microsoft account balance for purchases. The Microsoft account balance is a currency on your account that can be added

through gift cards.

Since this is an issue with the account itself, I will go ahead and lock this thread to prevent repetitive answers. Feel free to come back anytime if you have a question or issue. We will be more than happy to answer any questions and provide
solution. Thank you again and have a good day!

Hello LeonardSchultzW!

Thanks for responding.

Have you attempted to purchase Microsoft currency with your PayPal?

Once you've purchased MS currency, you can use that to buy your GEMS for Cooking Fever.

Use PayPal with your Microsoft account

I hope this helps! Let us know!
