So, today I was trying to set up a microsoft account for my 10 year old. 

I made the account and, through the associated link, was taken to my own account to approve the child account. Microsoft said that it had to charge me 50 cents. I clicked ok and agreed. The next screen said that there was an error and that I should try again. I tried 6 times and each time it said that the order was not processed.

Interestingly, Microsoft charged me 6 times and the account still doesnt work. Just out of curiosity, is Microsoft running a scam?

Thank you,

Kamil
