I typo'd and put the wrong birthdate for my son's account and now he is a "child" account. I need to change it to be correctly as teen, but the site will not let me change it. Also, when I try to contact support (as it gives me a link to) it errors and goes to "page not found". When contacting support they say there is absolutely nothing they can do (?!)
All I want is to correct the birthdate -- reset the date, so I can change it or something!
If I can't do this, I want to turn off parental supervision, but I can't do that either! I am highly frustrated. please help

I’m regretting buying this thing more and more. If I had known how awful their customer service is, what a piece of garbage the merchandise is and how one can’t change something so simple - I would have never bought one.

This issue has not been fixed yet as I am currently dealing with the same issue, it set up my son's account with the wrong year. His date of birth is 1-13-2009 and in the mobile app it says 1-13-2012 and now we can not change it which now he isn't able to play any games at all because it says he is a child account. I need to be able to enable developer mode as well for him so that he is able to play all the full free VR games he has downloaded but it only allows him to play short 5 min demo games.
