Why Is My Xbox 360 Console Banned?

Device bans are not issued lightly, and occur when a particular Xbox console or Xbox on Windows device is used to violate the Code of Conduct in an egregious or repeated manner. Once a device ban occurs, no account can connect to the Xbox Live service from
the affected device. Given the severity of this action we take each device ban extremely seriously, and only take action after a lengthy investigation.

Upon receiving a device ban, any account that attempts to sign in to the Xbox Live service will receive a notification.

Xbox 360:

“This console has been banned for violations of the Terms of Use. To protect the Xbox Live service and its members, Microsoft does not provide details about console bans. There is no recourse for Terms of Use violations.”

Have your friend post here to find out why his console was suspended:

Suspensions, to my knowledge, are not lifted early.

[quote user="xLGCx Poseidon"]Why are older xbox 360's so expensive still?[/quote]Why are you buying older 360 consoles?

anyone know where i can get one in a good condition for about 100$ that isnt banned?

No one can answer that question. Microsoft
has a tendency to ban in waves. Because a console is not banned now does not mean it will not be banned in the next wave.

Hey there UnbredSky308263!

To find out why you have been banned, you will need to post in the Xbox 360 Account Suspensions & Console Bans Forum. Thanks!
