Xbox Series X Heads so far and I really do hope this is not a bad sign
Account got hacked into a week ago on the 3rd of October and I filled out the account recovery form, basically the damages are they compromised my email went into my account kicked my email out and added a dummy email and their email as theirs on my account, I could still access it with my password and because as a last tempt effort, I didn't think my password would work but surprisingly it did the hacker didn't active 2fa on my account thankfully, but I contacted customer support, filled out the account recovery form, then got the account escalation email, replied with the Xbox info, my info and evidence of ownership, like receipts, order history on my account with order number emails attached, the email that was in my spam folder that shows my account was the original owner of my Microsoft profile/Xbox account and of course my account details. Got the reply email asking me for more info I didn't have a recovery email or phone number tied to my account so I gave my phone number because I had used it to set up the rewards system on my account and my email I assumed I used. Waited till today and got this email which is making me concerned because now I'm being told they need to do more "research" got in contact with costumer service again and told them what's going on with the provided case number, they told me they'll send in a follow up request and instructed me to make a new Microsoft account with the new email I made, so they could make the transfer faster. Basically I'm asking an I screwed? Because I've spent the last 5 years collecting games and they'res a handful of games on my account you can't get anymore online and I've spent a crap ton of money on games, gamepass and dlc combined I just really hope I don't lose it all. Also the fact they're telling me "they don't know when they'll get back to me" is not exactly comforting. Ontop of that I normally get the yearly subscription and we'll the idea of it running the clock with me not being able to use it does bother me a bit, but at the moment I just want my stuff back.
The biggest shame I was looking forward to this month because Halloween is my favourite time of the year.
