Need help with Xbox 360 family passcode...

[KristsJavalds]

Might not be the right place for this, but my friend recently bought an xbox 360 from a thrift store for 15 euros and later sold it to me for the same cause it has this family passcode thing on. I have tried alot of stuff, except for softmodding it or whatever you call that to remove the code, but nothing has worked. Does anyone know how to deal with this and remove the code ?

"Contact Xbox Support if you can't answer the security question. If the previous owner had a passcode enabled and didn't remove it before selling it, or you don't remember the answer to your security question, you'll need to call Xbox Support to get a master reset passcode.
You can contact support at support.xbox.com, via online chat or telephone. You'll be asked some questions to verify that you are allowed to disable parental controls (Xbox Support won't disable parental controls if it was your parents that enabled them).[4]"

Does the calling option work internationally ?

Contact Microsoft support at your country. They should be able to tell you the steps you need to follow, if any.

This applies to XBox as well.
