How to get permission to purchase storage on my own?

I'm 19 years old and trying to buy more storage with my own card. However, Microsoft is telling me that I am too young to make a purchase and must ask an adult for help. I double checked my account, and my listed birthday is correct. Is there a baffling age requirement to these kinds of purchases? Or do I need to reach out to my family and get permission from my parent who is the manager of our family account?

 

Xbox one in app purchases

How do I set up a password required for purchases on my son's Xbox one? I don't want him to be able to make purchases without my permission, he's 7 years old.

No permissions

Hi,

I would suggest you to right click on the user's folder for your profile and check if the permissions shows as "read only'. If this is the case, it might be causing the issue. In this case, I would suggest you to go to C:\User folder, right click on the
folder with your username and follow these steps:

• Open the properties of the main user profile folder where the files are located (such as Documents, Pictures, etc).
  
• Go to the Security tab and click Advanced.
• Check the box at the bottom of this window. It is labeled "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" and then click Ok.
  

This does a one-time action that replaces the security on all the files/subfolders. It’s one-time, so you won’t find that box checked if you peek at it later. Try these steps and let us know the results for further assistance.
