I'm trying to add a payment method onto my Xbox account so I can get the 3 months of game pass for 1$.
I have tried my PayPal account and my debt card but everytime it comes back with a message saying payment can't be linked or authorized. Anyone know why I'm getting this message and how to fix it? |

| Usually that means there's previously been some sort of decline (whether that be insufficient funds or declining the card itself) perhaps on another account? |

I know on my PayPal it said Disney plus pending. I got the week trial and than canceled it before it charged me 8$. Would that effect it any? |

If you had let's say $8 in your bank & it was pending (even though you cancelled it) it still means you've got $0 until it's refunded :3 |

| If the card you are trying to add is on multiple accounts across the system, the billing system could be declining it as it may seem to be fradulent. Microsoft billing systems keep track of cards regardless if you remove them or not. When your account is pulled up they can see the old card and actually how many times it's been added and removed. So your info could be flagged. Also make sure your billing address matches what's on file with your bank. If that's not right it won't authorize your info whether you use PayPal or your credit card. |
