Good News for Child Accounts
News | November 30, 2007 2:03 pm
Over at good MajorNelson has mentioned yet another snippet that the new dashboard update will bring: The ability to "Graduate" from a child account to an adult account. This means that any of you with the problems of buying XBL when you were under 18, but have since turned 18 can now upgrade your account to an adult account. This can be done in the Account Management section of the dashboard.
All that is entailed is you must re-agree to the XBL Terms and Conditions agreement, and enter a new credit card if you used one of your parent's. Along with that comes the ability to change the Windows Live ID associated with your Live account. Doing this will allow you to associate a new Windows Live ID with your account, as well as transferring all Microsoft points over to the new account.
Lastly, for those of you with a child account and still under the age of 18, you will now have access to the Instant Messaging feature of the dashboard. Interesting, it seems like Microsoft has listened to it's scorned customers and has made good on their promises.
