I redeemed 5$ from rewards & it went to my account balance & was told that the only way to buy robux using that balance is through xbox so i tried on the xbox store but when i press buy it says

    HI @Abu Sesay

    I understand how frustrating this is, especially since the $5 Rewards credit is already showing in your Microsoft account balance. Since you have already tried the troubleshooting and contacted Support, I will not direct you through the same route again.

    Please check these two details:

    • Confirm that the Microsoft account containing the $5 balance is the same account signed in to the Xbox Store.
    • Confirm that the country/region on your Microsoft account matches the Xbox console’s location. Microsoft account funds are region-specific and cannot be transferred between regions.

    You can also check your Microsoft account order history. If no Robux order appears, the purchase did not complete and the $5 should remain in your account balance. Microsoft’s purchasing guidance also recommends checking for an overdue subscription or an account/Xbox suspension, as either may block Store purchases.

    If all these details are correct and the same payment error continues, there is unfortunately no additional forum-side step that can remove an account-specific purchasing restriction. Community members and forum moderators cannot access the account’s billing system or determine the exact reason the transaction is being declined.

    Please do not post your email address, balance details, or support case number publicly.

    Thank you for your understanding and time
