Your account is currently not eligible for this experience Copilot error

The AI-powered Bing chat is capable of resolving users’ queries. You just have to type your question and hit Enter. After that, you will get your answer. You can use Copilot (Bing Chat) in Microsoft Edge. Some users are not able to use AI-powered Bing Chat because of the “Your account is currently not eligible for this experience” error. Bing displays a Return to Bing button just below this message, clicking on which users can return to the traditional Bing Search.

Your account is currently not eligible for this experience Copilot error

The following solutions will help you fix the “Your account is currently not eligible for this experience” error in Copilot.

1. What type of account you are using
2. Change your region
3. Use another account
4. Use a VPN

Let’s see all these fixes in detail.

1] What type of account you are using

I found on some sources that the minimum age limit to use Bing Chat is 13 years. But when I searched online, I found no official statement regarding this. Therefore, I decided to test this on my PC. I created a Child account and saw the same error message when I tried to use Bing Chat from that account. The error was gone when I converted that Child account to an adult account.

I found that Bing Chat is not available for Child accounts. I think the reason users have written that the minimum age limit is 13 is that the account of a person below this age is a Child account.

From this testing, I concluded that Bing Chat is not available for Child accounts. Hopefully, this restriction may be removed in the future. Hence, you cannot use Bing Chat if you have a Child account. But, if you have an adult account and are still unable to use Bing Chat, we suggest you check your Microsoft account details. You may have entered the wrong date of birth by mistake. If this is the case with you, you can correct it.

Go through the following instructions:

1. Login to your Microsoft account in your web browser.
2. Click on your profile icon on the top right side.
3. Now, click My Profile.
4. You will see your date of birth under the Profile info section. If the date of birth is wrong, correct it.
5. Click on the Edit profile info button. You have to verify your identity for this.
6. Enter the correct date of birth and click Save.
