  1. Xbox needs to allow the option to manually accept or deny friend requests for the Series X


    Lately, I've had a ton of unknown accounts that I've never played with before follow me. I don't know who these accounts belong to and some accounts just straight up gave zero games or gamerscore. Because of how the Xbox One friend system works, there is no way I can deny them from following my account. I remember back on the Xbox 360, you had to manually accept or deny friend requests, and I had no idea why that was removed because I knew that this follow system was a much bigger security risk, and now that flaw is finally showing it's ugly face. Thankfully, none of these accounts have tried to contact me, but it's still worrying to see all these accounts I don't know follow me. The friend system for the Series X needs to change back to manual accept or deny like how it was for the Xbox 360.

    Suddenly can't connect to Internet on 360

    There is no DMZ feature on my router and you're right in that it would break everything else I needed ports forwarded to. I did, however, find an acceptable solution. I modified my miniupnpd.conf to deny all the 360's requests altogether and deny any other
    clients access to the ports the 360 wants (namely 3074).

    deny 0-65535 192.168.1.20 0-65535 <--- 360's static IP denied for all ports

    deny 3074 0.0.0.0/0 3074 <--- All other devices denied on 3074

    allow 1025-65535 0.0.0.0/0 1025-65535 <--- Allow all other devices ports 1025+ (except 3074)

    I then used manual port forwarding for the 360. So I get uPnP for everything on my network that plays nice with it and manual port forwarding for the 360 since it's not. I also blacklisted the 360's ports from being assigned to other devices, to avoid
    conflicts. Connection tests are all passing now and my other devices seem happy with the arrangement so far.

    When i will request a friend request in minecraft it says managed your privacy settings to share my name . What is that

    Hi Md.Mushfiqur,

    I'm Anirban and I'll be happy to help you.

    You need to change your privacy settings to allow for a friend request to get accepted or send.

    Best regards

    If you didn't see the option Cancel immediately and get a refund, your only option is to turn off recurring billing and then request a refund by filling the form at:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/forms/request-a-...

    You will need the order number that can be seen at:

    https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

    If your refund request is denied, you can reply to the email about the denial explaining your situation. The refund team will manually review your refund request again. But if it is denied again, please contact Mojang support since the order was fully processed on the Microsoft side.

    Friend Requets

    How many people have you tried sending a friend request to? If just one or two, it's possible their friends lists are full. A 360 user can have a maximum of 100 friends, which also includes incoming and outgoing requests that have not yet been accepted/denied.

    Try someone else and see if that works.

    How to talk to someone about refunds not the call center

    Hi, Chuck, I'm Luis a Xbox user just like you. Thanks for reaching out us here.

    Unfortunately if you were denied a refund the only option left is to appeal the decision. You do that by replying to the email denying you the refund.

    In case your purchases are not eligible for a refund request. Please submit a manual one here
