    Xbox child account locked out MS Recovery not working…


    Hi. I can only guess that my child’s account has been hacked as it’s been locked out, the steps I’ve taken so far:-

    1 completed account recovery form

    2 reset password

    3 sign in due to sensitive info, sending code…..

    4 entered code

    5 ‘your account has been locked‘ we’ve detected activity that violates our MS agreement, how to appeal…..

    6 ‘Try another verification method’……put my mobile number in box then ‘that method isn’t working right now’

    This is so frustrating, I’ve spent hrs trying to fix it and my poor kids can’t get into the Xbox. Any suggestions?

    Thanks so much for any help

    :)

    Xbox child account locked out MS Recovery not working…

    Hi Nathan,

    I’ve done the Microsoft account sign in helper yes, but it won’t allow access.

    In terms of the form, I cannot seem to find it online?

    Hey there, Nickjmc3

    If the Microsoft account has been locked, please can you use the sign in helper to see if it flags why the account has been locked and provides you with instructions on what to do next. The sign in helper tool can be accessed here: Sign-in Helper

    Did you complete the appeal form for your Microsoft account?

    Thanks,

    Nathan

    Locked out of account - recovery NOT working!

    Hi! My name is Ben a fellow member here in the community, not a part of Microsoft. Hope you are doing well!

    I am sorry to hear about the experience you've had. With regards to account security, that is strange that your account got hacked I agree since 2FA is really hard to bypass.

    When you tried recovering your account via the account.live.com/pw or password reset page, do you see any suspicious information added on your account? Usually if someone hacked our Microsoft account, the phone number and email address will be changed.

    In case you are seeing a suspicious information when recovering it, it would be much better to contact the Microsoft Xbox support to see if they can check the status of your account. Let me provide the guide how you can reach them, just go through this link https://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us

    On the page, click on "Contact us" > Subscriptions & billing > I can't redeem a code > Type in "Support" then there you should see option to message or request a callback from the Xbox team. The option I provided here is diferent, this is just a way to easily find the option to reach the Xbox support.

    I hope this helps somehow on how you can reach the Xbox team, feel free to ask here in the community if you have more questions and we will try with the best of our knowledge to help.
