Hey there!

Nice to meet you! My name is Christian, an independent advisor. I'm here to help you out.

First, you have to determine if there is indeed an enforcement action taken against your account. To check if there is, please follow the steps on this link.

If it is not a case of an enforcement action then try these troubleshooting steps.

Go to settings > device > accessories > update controller

If the issue persists try the rest of the troubleshooting steps on this link.

I hope this helps.

I have no enforcements taken against my account currently and my headset works fine on any other platforms and today i also discovered on other accounts logged in on the same pc the mic still works fine. I really do not know what this issue could be?

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor here to help you with your concern.

"Check that your privacy settings allow communication with everyone. Press the Xbox button to open the guide and select Profile & System> Settings > Account > Privacy & Online safety > Xbox Live privacy. Select View details & customize > Communication & multiplayer, then make changes.

If everything is on "Allow" or set to "Everyone" kindly block all of them then power cycle your console and "Allow" and set to "Everyone" again. This is to refresh your account setting.

POWERCYCLE CONSOLE

1. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off.

2. Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button on the console or the Xbox button on your controller. "

My headset is fine as the issue still stands on xbox and pc, i cant find anything about this but i assume i am chat banned but have no message about it or email? And i can hear others they just can't hear me.

It is possible that there is an issue with your microphone or headset, or it could be a problem with the Xbox Live service. It's unlikely that changing your email would have caused this issue.

To try and resolve the issue, first check to see if the microphone is properly connected and turned on. If it is, you can try restarting your Xbox and then reconnecting the microphone.

If that doesn't work, you can check for any service alerts or known issues with Xbox Live on the Xbox website. If there are no known issues, you can contact Xbox Support for further assistance in troubleshooting the problem.
