Hello

My accounts have all been blocked  through a violation of Microsoft terms.  This has been applied to skype, xbox, one drive, email and so on.

I have no idea how i have violated terms.  What I do know is that my samsung phone, said I must transfer my back ups to one drive as they were discontinuing their service.  I did transfer the back up and then the violation was reported to me by Microsoft.  I cannot find anyone to discuss this with.

I have filed using the below advice that continues to show whenever I try to login, as per this message.

The message I receive on my account is:

Your account has been locked

I have a reference number, but no way of following up.  can anyone advise?

    Hi Kates

    I think I have tried almost all that is available through Google Searches.  All forums report back the same

    Hi Paul,

    I appreciate your reply.

    Have you already tried recovering your account and resetting your password? You might wanna try this.

    Hello Paul,

    Since you already tried doing the recovery form but still being routed to the same page, You may try to fill out the end-to-end form and be detailed as possible. Turn around time is via email within 24-72 hours normally.
