Instead, they just lock your account and ask you to unlock it. This is ridiculous: in effect, you can't have a Live account without giving your cell phone number, but MS won't tell you that upfront. To be perfectly honest, I think MS is just harvesting phone numbers - since that's what's required to unlock these accounts. I also created a Live account with a gmail address, and it got blocked too. The new account got blocked too - nobody else knew about it. If you paste the password, instead of typing it, MS requires you to add a phone number before allowing you to create the account.

I'm using MS's recommended practice of using regular, free Skype (we only have 10 accounts), but it has been a disaster.

Does anyone else know what causes this? About 10 times now, different accounts have been locked and needed to be unlocked using a phone number and an activation code.
