I Accidently Entered wrong DOB on my hotmail account

12. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: microsoft, Microsoft account
I have entered a wrong date of birth on my primary Hotmail account.    After modifying my account’s profile, I got blocked by a message 
stating that I need a parent’s permission before I can access my email account. After contacting Microsoft, I faxed two forms of ID and
supporting information to confirm my identity to Windows Live ID Child Age Verification Department on August 31st, 2013. I received an
email back from Microsoft account team that my the information that I have submitted for my primary email account
has
been verified and I was advised to click on the provided link to reset my password.  I followed the given instructions and successfully
rested my password.  When logging back to my account, I am still getting a message stating that I need a parent’s permission before I
can access my email account.  My account is still blocked and I am not able to access my emails. Just for the records, I am accessing
my account from an overseas location since I am stationed for work purposes. 
I have been locked out of my account for almost two weeks now and I really need to access my account as soon as possible since it is 
my primary email account.

Contacts Lost From Microsoft Account

12. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Facebook, Microsoft account
I suddenly noticed this morning that all my contacts are missing from my Windows Phone people hub (wp 7.8).
The contacts were there yesterday, but today only my Facebook contacts are displayed, not telephone and e-mail addresses from my Microsoft Account.
I logged into outlook.com to check the contacts online and the People page states that I have no contacts stored.
I cannot think of any action which would have caused this from my side, I haven't attempted to delete any contacts manually, and my phone appears to be connected to my Microsoft account correctly, but no contacts are there.
Please can you provide any possible reasoning as to why my contacts have disappeared from my Microsoft account and possible solutions to restore them?
Thanks,
Andy.

i can’t verify my account and password reset doesn’t help

12. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: Microsoft account, verification number
  For about a week now i have been trying to access my Microsoft account and gamer tag.  the window i keep getting says "it looks like someone might be using your account", and then i go to the screen where it asks you what e-mail you'd like to use to receive your verification number but the only e-mail listed is one i cannot get into.  so i have been selecting the "i can't verify my account" option and filled out the stupid questions so many times and yet all i get back is a link to reset my password... now according to the x-box service people this is where the problem is..  when i change my password nothing gets fixed. the screen says "looks like someone else might be using your account" like it always does and the same e-mail address that i can't use is the only option for verification.
     i have called and talked to like 5 different x-box service people for hours trying to figure this out and every time they convince themselves that the Microsoft account team will help me and all i get is an automated response e-mail that doesn't help anything.  
      the x-box people can't do anymore to help me, only the Microsoft account team can (so i'm told) so PLEASE HELP!!!

i don't like paying for a membership i can't use.  

anyone got bill gates cell number? maybe he can help me.

I can’t create a Microsoft account

I closed my Microsoft account because of a problem and now I want to create a new one but it says this account exists.

Trying to setup Outlook.com with a custom domain…

12. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: BBB, google, Microsoft account, setup Outlook
I currently have email through two custom domains ([AAA].com & [BBB].com) that are hosted with Google. I'd like to switch over to using Outlook.com for my email. I previously had setup Outlook with the BBB.com domain at domains.live.com. I'd also like to use *** Email address is removed for privacy *** as my primary Microsoft account alias. When I logged in as *** Email address is removed for privacy *** to add this as an alias and switch it over to be the primary, I couldn't add it. The error given was something like "this account already exists."
I had assumed that because I already had the Outlook service setup for BBB.com, I wasn't going to be able to add that address as an alias and use it as my primary alias. So I shut down the Outlook service, and moved BBB.com back to Google for the time being. However, I still can't add BBB.com as an alias to my account.
Long story short… how can I setup *** Email address is removed for privacy *** as the primary account alias for my Microsoft account, as well as use Outlook.com for my email hosting? (I'd like to stop using Google completely, so I don't want to use forwarding or POP access to get the mail.)

Can’t access Microsoft account

11. September 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: microsoft, Microsoft account
I can't gain access to my Microsoft account as it says someone has gained access to my account, this has stopped me from being able to use my Xbox live account. *** Email address is removed for privacy *** is the account in question
They have sent me emails allowing me to change my password, I have done this twice and it continues to say the account is being accessed by someone else and it is just leading me in circles now. I request some help from a windows live representative.
