XB1 voice chat problem

JankH

Hey guys, after downloading the patch the other day the voice chat was working fine but last night I kept getting the message saying that voice chat is unavailable. I've looked at the suggested fixes but nothing has worked so far. Any suggestions as to how to fix this would be helpful. Thanks

Maybe you got Comunication Banned by Xbox?

I'm getting the same too. Hoping it won't take till the next dlc to get fixed.

I found a fix!!! Go into xbox settings and privacy, then switch it to Adult instead of custom or whatever. This fixed my voice chat and text chat issue

I had this problem too and found the specific issue. I have customized security settings on my Xbox because I only want to share and communicate with my "friends". To fix the problem, you need to loosen your security Xbox Live security settings.

Settings -
All settings -
Account -
Privacy & online safety -
Xbox Live privacy -
View details & customize -
Others can communicate with voice and text -
Select "Everybody" (Mine was set to "Friends")

The problem with this solution is that random people, anyone on Xbox Live can start texting you. I have already received random Xbox messages from people wanting to sell me stuff. Personally I do not find this solution acceptable and home that Zenimax fixes it soon.
