Microsoft billing

I just got billed £9:98 from microsoft *billing bill.ms.net lu when i didn't even order a subscription, so i checked the gamer tags i used this card on and neither have any gold subscriptions on them. also subscriptions are as follows; 1 month - £4:99, 3 months - £14:99, 1 year - £39:99, so even if i had purchased a subscription i couldn't be billed £9:98. i will try and contact support but will most likely get put through to someone from a foreign country who will take all day to answer my problem because i can understand them and they can't understand me.

Microsoft unauthorised debit on credit card

I have an unauthorised debit of $10.95 with the description Microsoft*Billing.Bill.Net.SGP.

I have not purchased anything from Microsoft*Billing.Bill.Net.SGP. and have not provided anybody with any authorisation to debit the credit card. It seems to be a complete scam

My visa gets charged and I get instant text message.

http://www.complaintboard.com/microsoft-billing-bill-ms-net-wa-l13457.html
So I contact my visa and cancel the visa. The visa people wanted me to call Microsoft... it gets interesting at MICROSOFT.
I google to contact Microsoft. I end up in a chat line support from Microsoft. I mention the "fraud issue" as stated in the above url
Chat line Microsoft support wants to talk to me on my phone. So she calls me from MICROSOFT CORP [protected] (my called id shows that) and she wants to know my visa number ! I decline to give her my number. She says "she understands" and puts me on hold for thirty minutes and then hangs up.

For the 3rd item like they have stated; A Fund Release Order/attestation from the crown court of England, the Bank requires copies of these documents from the British crown court here in England before they can finalize the release of your fund to you. As a lottery fund, these are mandatory document that must be provided by you to Legalize and Certify your winning/claims.

I received the same mailing, only I am winner #4 of 850, 000 British Pounds, and Microsoft was celebrating 40th Anniversary in conjunction with (FPS) Foundation of Software Products (FPS should stand for Foundation of Products Software) and they wanted me to submit my info to Flora Miller, Cash Aid Documentation Officer- floramiller11@ovi.com and indicate payment : bank online wire transfer or cheque and also include my comment on microsoft products . This scam was supposed to be a Microsoft Internet email draw held periodically and organized to encourage the use of internet and promote computer literacy worldwide. This is just hurtful because I really could have used this money. I am just getting out of an emotionally and mentally abusive marriage of 20 years, I am unemployed, I have no car, no bank account, and the only thing I own is a few clothes and this laptop from which I am typing, I would be homeless had it not been for a family member that took me and two of my sons in and they are struggling as well. I wanted this to be real so I could not only could I get back on my feet but I could also establish something for others who might oneday find themselves in my position. I would hate to be the person or people behind any type of scam that prey on innocent people because KARMA is really something. They wouldn't have gotten anything from me anyway, I don't have a bank account either and my credit is shot, my estranged husband made sure of that. lol

Microsoft hotmail

On 8/11/2010, I opened up a 'hotmail' account. I do not have access to it. I have tried calling every customer service number to no avail. When you get a microsoft or hotmail 'customer service' rep. on the phone, they are disgustingly rude and obnoxious and they barely speak understandable English. I feel that they deliberately bait customers.

As of today I still have no access to this account. I am concerned that someone will use my email address for illegal purposes without my knowledge or consent. I cannot close this account because I have not access to it.

I am not surprised to see over 4, 000 complaints against Microsoft on this website alone. I have learned that the European Union has tried to sue Microsoft for monopolizing operating systems.

Re: MSN e-mail support = BS
My msn account (7 yr old) was hacked by a spammer on January 4, 2011. All addresses in my directory were sent spam asking for money. I did not send it. MSN shut it down. I went through hoops filling out the support questionnaire for 2 weeks. I was sent a link to reopen the account and it did not work. An additional two weeks were spent providing additional info. Twice I was congratulated for proving my identity! and a reset link was going to be sent to my alternate e-mail address. Never happened. And they stopped replying to my questions... for over a month I worked in good faith to restore this heavy time invested e-account. Their customer service behavior is top rate BS!

Microsoft charges on my account

Last month July 2010 I was charged for micro soft and other x box use. This month August 2010, I was charged again for the same as above. I do not know why I am getting charged this amount and being that I am on a fixed income and disabled, I can not afford this sort of money coming out of my accoutn each month. I would only want what is charged to have x box on live. NO OTHER XTRAS. iS THER SOME WAY THAT THIS CAN BE TAKEN CARE OF? TO AVOID ANY OTHER MISUNDERSTANDINGS IN THE FUTURE?

In January 2010, my 15 year old son used his pre-paid bank card to purchase an item on the internet from X-BOX--which he thought was a ONE-TIME purchase. Afterwards, they charged his card for 3 consecutive months--one of which didn't go thru due to no funds being on the card at the time of last billing in MAY. I called the 1-800 number and FINALLY got a...

Microsoft abused by xbox customer service staff then supervisor

I have had an xbox 360 now for 18 month and it has recieved the rings of death twice. When i ring up customer service they are helpfull and arrange for the console to be fixed but yesterday when i rung this wasn't the case. I had been suspended from xbox live for a day and i had no idea why so i decided to ring customer service to see if they could shed some light on it. She took my details and then told me somebody had complained about something(Most likely playing a clan and they all put complaints in about me which is fair enough) but then she started getting arsey and being quite rude so i took her name and asked if i could talk to the supervisor because this was wrong. In all fairness he did take the call but it seems the only reason he did this was to give me abuse. At first he was ok but when i asked him if he had contact details so i could complain about the ban he started raising his voice as he told me it. I asked him if he could repeat the e-mail address so i could check it he started reading it out load and slow and repeated the letters 3 or 4 times in a sarcastic tone. When i asked him why he was getting like that he told me to shut up and that he was going to get me banned for life. WHAT KIND OF CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THAT. What are microsoft playing at. Im now trying to find out who else this has happened to and im not going to stop until somebody higher up with a bit of understanding and curtisy can tell me why they allow customers who spend alot of money on there products are allowed to be spoken to like this but as usual microsoft doesn, t have anywhere you can complain but this will not end any time soon.

They are still just as bad,actually worse now you have to do everything through chat. It's quickly come to my attention that they only want money doesn't matter how they get it. I'm glad I got rid of Xbox and windows devices years ago. But they still excepted 7 payments in 1 day from my compromised debit card. Check out my post

Microsoft console scratching video games

On June 26, 2010 I called Xbox 360 customer service and explained to them that the game console is making large rings around every game that I place into the console, I pay $59.99 per game and two of them are completely ruined. When I spoke to the customer service representative I was made aware that is not in Microsoft Policy to replace the games that you faulty product has destroyed, I was told I have to contact the makers of the game. This is completely rediculous, if your name is on the product Microsoft should stand behind the product and all of its components. All I would like is the console repaired and the two games that are completly destroyed replaced. I have spent an hour on the phone with you representative and still my issue is unresolved. I will contiue to proceed with every legal action I have to take to get this issue resolved. I do not have $299 to spend for a console then an addition $120 on games for the consule for Microsoft to not stand behind its products. I am completely dissappointed with the service I have received and I will never buy another product that is filtered through Microsoft. I cannot understand how a multi-million dollar company can be so out of touch with the products and consumers which have helped to make Microsoft the millionaires that you are! If I do not recive any correspondece to this matter I will continue to pursue a case in small claims court because this is completely unfair. I dont care who makes the games, because the games were fine upon purchace once they were entered into the game console they were destroyed so Microsoft is 100% responsible! Please contact me in regaurds to this matter!

You would think that if enough people are complaining about the same thing MICROSOFT would do something about it. I am so sorry that I purchased the XBOX 360. It has destroyed the only game that I played on that thing and I just heard from a friend that his game was destroyed as well. Microsoft you have a problem, fix it.

I purchased Call Of Duty Black Ops and Fable II for my 14 and 15 year old son for Christmas 2010 ($60.00 each). Within one month both games are in operable due to a deep ring burnt into each disc by our two year old xbox 360 ($300.00). In my efforts to find out why microsoft, activision, and flextronics none of the above will take any responsibility. The only explaination given was the console had to be bumped or moved during operation. Our local Game Stop store said the console should be kept in a flat position (which we do) and micrsoft says it should be kept in a vertical position. So which is it? Where are the warnings and cautons how to properly use such a frigiale machine marketed to our children? Our console is always kept in a sturdy cabinet and we have had wireless controllers from day one ($60.00 each x 4). I was told that for $20.00 more dollars I could recieve new game disc, with no guarantee that it would happen again. This is not a solution, it is dishonest business at my expense! So I will fall in with the other thousands if not more of UNSATISIFIED consumers who will no longer buy microsoft products. I can testify that I never had any problems with my old nintendo consoles or games. Is Microsoft only conserned about making a profit instead of offering a quality product? Time to give Sony Playstation my undivided attention.

The only way an Xbox will scratch a disc is if you move the Xbox while it is reading the disc (such as when you are playing it or turning it on). You will hear a scratching sound when this happens and it CLEARLY states on the Xbox when you are opening it in big letters (first thing I noticed) "Do not move Xbox while it is on". I'll agree that it is ridiculous that the Xbox scratches games and the Wii and PS3 does not, but reguardless you not listening to the warning label is your fault, not theirs.

Microsoft deletes negative feedback

I work with computers and IE8 of course sets BING as the default search provider and everyone just leaves it that way until I switch it for them. The first problem I have with it is they never bring up what I want in the first 5 results, whereas with Google it is usually the first result. So I went to Microsoft to put in a review that it was too much Like Yahoo and didn't ever pull up what I was looking for easily. That's it the whole complaint and I went and looked about a month later and all they have is the same good (probably fake) reviews and no negative ones at all. So I hate BING and when I wrote the review there I thought they deserved 1 for uselessness now I thing they deserve -5 for being deceitful too.

Lol yeah they have a whole team working 24/7 monitoring negative posts everywhere. Last night they took down my post on redit within minutes. Lol, that just made me find this site and I went to many other sites copy and pasting the same post. I even got on google maps and gave thw same post and 1 star. Walmart.com to. Even github. Get duckduckgo browser. Search debit card fraud. It'll blow ur mind how corrupt they are and they literally allow scams to to go on for years sometimes decades. All for the money who cares about customers once we get the money.

Microsoft bad customer service

I purchased by mail Microsoft Office 2007. My product key was provided June 9th. It has yet to work. My computer says it is invalid. Every email I send I get some standard form telling me how to install. I talked to someone from Digital River for 10 min., then when he realized I hadn't yet installed it, he got rather patronizing and told me I needed to speak to someone in the tech. dept. and would transfer me. Was cut off then. I think part of the problem is we can't understand each other. What's also frustrating is after giving the case #, I have to give my name and phone, which invariably turns into a 2-3 minute spelling and re-spelling session. Right now I am on hold again, after having to give all my info yet again. He transferred me to another dept. UGH! I asked in several emails can I not just get a product key that works, however they probably don't really read the emails, because it's never been addressed. In one email I mentioned maybe I should just get a refund, and they sent me instructions on how to get a refund. Hello, Microsoft! You'd rather lose a sale then try to fix it? Well, it's been about 20 min. on hold so far, guess I'll hit the website to see if I can once again try to figure it out myself. Microsoft, your customer service STINKS!

The customer service for both Windows 7 and Microsoft are the most incompetent department. In addition both Jessica and Janice @ 425.882.8080 in Corp Headquarters became arrogant, rude and dismissive when I asked to speak with public relations division. The matter started on January 2, 2012 and has still today January 16, 2012 not been rectified.
