The refund window is 2 weeks with MS. Presumably they eventually say no to anyone asking for refunds too regularly, but I've got a refund a couple of times without any quibble. It's probably a profitable policy - peeps more likely to buy if they know a refund is available.

I've had loads refunded once inside the 2 week window and having less than 2 hours played. Fairly quickly too. It's an automated process I'd guess.

I have both the PS and Xbox consoles and IMO Sony are far worse than Microsoft at getting refunds for digital purchases. MS is almost Steam-like in that regard.

Anyone had an issue with MS Rewards and not having any rewards redeemable with only the message of ‘looks like you’re on the go’?
I’ve been on holiday for a couple of weeks and was still collecting points on the mobile app, figured the rewards would return when I was back in the UK but nope. Have contacted support but no response.

I ordered a custom controller last week. Just an ordinary pad but bright orange. Its cool you can do this and it costs only a few quid more than the standard pads.

Oh man, didn't realise you could do elite controllers as well now. Don't need one, but god damn it's tempting!

Have contacted support but no response. This is me today too. There's some posts on Reddit about it. I agree with many of those I've read that it appears to tie in with the new "Read The News" points thingy finally starting to work. As in, this morning, for the first time ever, I actually appeared to get 3 points from a News article showing on the new badge (this was iOS/Bing app at the time), and seconds later I was getting the "Oops, looks like you're on the go!" message on ALL devices. I, like many, have raised a ticket. The very best of luck to us all...

I switched my broadband to a provider that charges for a static ip address, only thing it effects so far is my Microsoft rewards, using a hot spot to get the mobile stuff to work and be able to redeem anything.

Don’t think it got anything sorted, more that it just resolved itself as my Mrs’ account also went back to normal and she hadn’t raised a ticket or anything. They seem to do a great job of fucking about with the rewards apps, always breaking things that used to work nicely.

Mine’s back up and running this morning, but, of course, I’ve lost whatever streak I had.
Ho hum.

Well, those a crosses, not naughts, so I reckon it’s an pornographic remake of the film Psycho. That’s the only reasonable conclusion.

Weren’t we meant to be getting fancy new dashboards?

Yeah, on 2nd May EG reported the new dashboard would "filter out to everyone else in the coming days". Almost June and still no sign.

Boo.
I'd say bring back the old Rare but they're long gone.

I'll reserve my judgement until they actually, you know, release the actual thing. How long has this one been in development now?

I liked Viva Piñata, but I don’t know that I want Everwild to be like Viva Piñata. I definitely don’t want it to be a survival game either though. I was hoping more for an action RPG, personally.

Help please, I've looked online but it's a bit confusing. My son (13) has been using my gamertag for a number of years, long story. Is it possible to transfer that tag over to him and still keep all my Microsoft stuff (gamepass etc) still linked to me? My ex wife wants to restrict his gaming a little.

Options are available that depend on what you want to do.
If you are one Xbox it's very easy, you can access the same stuff on the same Xbox. If you are on separate Xboxes, make your one the "home" Xbox for his account, and then when you log into it you will still have access to everything attached to that account. As long as he is logged into his Xbox then he can also access the content
But him getting his own account would be the cleanest and set him up going forward. He just needs to add all the same friends, right?
