    Unauthorized Purchase and Games wanting me to Re Purchase them. (Any Advice or help is...


    Hi, thanks for taking the time to look at the issue I have been having with MS.

    On December 11th I had a unauthorized purchase (Forza Horizon 3 Premium Ed. with all DLC. charged $47.99) on my account, I was told to request a refund which was denied so I decided to at least try the game. The issue got worse, when I tried to play it.
    Every time I select the game I am taken to the XBOX Store where it shows I need to purchase the game again for over or right around $140.

    I have spent over 30 hours preforming Troubleshooting steps including. Restore the console with and without games as well as removing profiles, Restoring the console to factory settings, Hard Reset, trying to DL the game on other consoles (4) profile is
    linked to my console, each time I selected the game I was taken to store where it shows I need to purchase the game again.

    This morning I purchased 1 Month XBLG and Monopoly Plus. I added $15 in currency and my friend tried to purchase the Euro Fishing Game that was $8.00, but it would not let him purchase the game with the Currency so he stopped trying all together. 20 Minutes
    later after sales ended it showed that Euro Fishing Ultimate Ed. was purchased even though neither he or I didn't look at it at all and I have no interest at all in the Ultimate ed. version of the game since I already have both the DLC and my the game on
    another profile but not installed I was charged $32.00 on PayPal and not a single penny was taken from my XBOX Currency (though if it had I would be talking about that though so maybe its for the best talking please..)

    Now both the Forza Horizon 3 premium Ed. and the Euro Fishing Ultimate Ed. are now both on my console but neither will play. When I select the games both take me to the XBOX store and want me to purchase them again at full price. I already have tried several
    TS steps without any success.

    Due to these issues and the fact that MS has refused to help fix the game issues I have been having or giving any advice on the issue or issue a refund since FH3PED isn't playing and I am not able to contact Customer Service or Request a Callback at all
    I have contacted PayPal and filed a Dispute. Every time I try and get in a chat with an Agent or Request a call back I am getting a message saying to try again later with the error code CV: wjf19aPIu0uf7Mz1.6

    :)

    Hi Saint,

    Try these steps to request a call back. If they do not work what region are you in?

    When you go to
    Contact Us
    to get it to request a callback follow these steps:

    • Step 1 ----select Xbox One
    • Step 2 ----select see more options then subscription changes
    • Step 3-----select show contact options
    • Step 4 ----select request a call from support

    Once they call explain the issue and they will be able to help you. Note that these options regularly change so just keep selecting something that gives request a call from support as a contact option.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Thank you for all the info. I will try and go in order here.

    Zero: No I didn't buy the game on his account, he was the one that purchased the game while using my account by mistake. I already have a copy of Euro Fishing that was purchased on my side buying account. I bought a month of gold for $1 and Monopoly Plus.

    XBF George: I did a refund request 2 times for Forza Horizon 3 Premium Ed. with all the DLC got a message saying that it doesn't qualify for refund or something like that. both games show up in my purchase history along with the Monopoly Game which works
    perfectly. The $15 in Microsoft Currency doesn't work when I try and use it alone or with my PayPal I am told the purchase is denied.

    Hello!

    Thanks for reaching out to us here on the forums with this situation. I recommend you try
    Submitting a Refund Request form for the billing issues you're describing. If the request gets denied then you should reply back to the billing representative that answered your refund request
    form. Also when if you are unable to play the games that have been purchased it may be because of the dispute being filed Microsoft will revoke the licenses of the games if the funds get pulled back to the purchaser. Take a look in your
    Microsoft Account Order history and see the status of these transactions.

    Let us know with a reply how it goes.

    By chance did you buy the games on your friends account by mistake?

    Thanks for the advice from everybody, I have tried contacting support again and I am still getting the same error message and told to try again later. Thank you all for the advice and help.

    I looked at my purchase history and both games were purchased and no refunds were issued on them, which is ok since it means that the games are not working due to errors on the games license or something like that, which is why I am being asked to repurchase
    them when I try and do anything with them. I reset my paypal and console password to make sure that the issue would not happen again. Since I am not able to get in contact with support through chat or request callback I have tried all the troubleshooting steps
    I know and have researched my issue as much as possible. Sadly I still am having the same issue but wont give up. I have had progress where I am able to fill out my issue in a request call back but when I submit the request it doesn't go through and in the
    tips section it says that "I will get the number and have to call them" and so it looks like its not a call back, I had hoped that since the request was still going through that it would end up that it was going through while showing it was still loading on
    my end and I would get a call I had multiple times where I let it continue to load between 1-8 hours and never received a call back so I guess that didn't work :( but that's ok it just means that I can continue trying to find new ways. I have the number for
    MS CS where I read I could get a transfer after going through several transfers. (Know I have the correct number for it since I tried calling but was on hold for the XBOX CS division for 3 hours and then was told it was closed now and got DC.)

    I have also contacted PayPal since I changed my password and updated security on it to change my info, I was told to file a dispute on the charge and use a one time per year offer to force a refund on the games that I am having issues with.

    Lastly I do have happy news, I am happy to report that the other games and items I have purchased on the XBOX ONE, XBOX 360, and PC are all working perfect. All were purchased using this profile and the only 2 (Forza Horizon 3 complete with all DLC, and
    Euro Fishing which was purchased when it was being looked at. I looked on the Euro Fishing site and called them directly since our company worked on the game and the new Fishing Sim Game that was released.) that are not working and asking for me to repurchase
    (I say asking because when I try to play or click on them I am taken to the XBOX Store for the games and it shows that the game is installed but still has the but option rather than either taking me to the game in my games section or auto starting the game.
    It also still shows purchase as gift as well.)

    If anybody has any advice, I am not able to use the $15 that I have on my account when I try I am not able to make the purchase until I use just the PP.

    Thank you all again for everything and I hope that you have a great day / night.
