#Unable to buy DLC
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
okay putting on my wishlist says i own it... but i don't. i never bought it, i was never charged for it, and I can't download it to my 360
Are you trying to download the dlc on a Xbox 360 console. I just checked the store page of the dlc and it says its only playable on Xbox one or Series X/S consoles.
that's irrelevant, all other 360 dlcs and games bought through the modern storefront work fine on a 360 console despite not being explicitly stated (which it is in the mobile app). this bug is unique to the 2 dlcs for alan wake on 360 as far as i can see
https://support.xbox.com/en-AU/help/xbox-360/store/cant-play-downloaded-content Ive found this. Might help.
but it wasn't previously downloaded. it wasn't even previously bought. that's the problem, because now I can't buy it legitimately
it only shows as bought on the modern storefront, not the 360 store
the modern storefront has a sale on both dlcs, but the 360 storefront does not
Maybe try looking at your order history just to confirm its not on their. Only thing I can suggest is trying to contact Xbox support.
would you know how to contact someone from Microsoft directly, through text, on the contact us page? i don't want to message a gamer or get on a call with anyone but im not liking my options
i have heard frequent references to it being possible but i have never found out how to do so myself
and no, it's not in my order history
no email receipt either
still having problems in any case
Start with the virtual agent
the virtual agent just loops back to the other options when im done with it
Oh I see, you don’t want a call.
Talking to someone directly is what 99% of people want to do lol.
There is no text message option.
“Message a gamer” is silly and shouldn’t exist imo.
But being able to talk directly to an employee who has access to your entire account is, in my opinion, the fastest way to get anything complicated accomplished.
not only that, but when i replace my real first name with "kat" in the "what should we call you?" box it doesn't do diddly squat and it uses my real name anyway
im sure this random gamer doesn't have any bad intentions especially since they're taking the time to help, but im not the most comfortable with random strangers knowing my real first name
damn, i tried thinking outside the box and it didn't work
i opened an incognito tab to add both to a cart while signed out, and signed in at checkout. but 2 weird things happen: it says i get this for free as part of a subscription (i am not subscribed to any xbox subscriptions) and every time i choose checkout it loops back to the same page
this just keeps getting weirder and weirder
at least i can confirm sam lake himself is trolling me, the main game was on sale for 6.59 which i bought with no trouble, only to immediately go on discount again after that one ended for 4.99, so i wasted money by not having foresight
You need to talk to official support.
