I hate Xbox Live.
After buying some Microsoft points, I transferred them to my son so he could buy Minecraft. It turns out, that Microsoft won’t let a minor buy it, although the system didn’t tell me that. Someone else had to explain why it wasn’t working. Oh, and I couldn’t transfer the points back to me. Why can I transfer points only one-way to an account that can’t use them?
I carefully customized the settings for the kids’ accounts, but the settings don’t seem to have anything to do with what is actually allowed or not. I am constantly having to adjust the settings to allow them to do things I thought I had already set as allowed. And it is even odds whether changing the permissions will actually help or not.
I recently bought another Microsoft points card, but whenever I tried it, it always came up as invalid.
(There’s also the run-around I got trying to get a second-hand Xbox repaired.)
And you have to have an Xbox Live account to use the Amazon video app.
Every time I have to do anything with the Xbox is painful and ends up not working.
