GUIDE TO LINK CREDIT CARD TO SINGAPORE WINDOWS PHONE 7 MARKETPLACE AND BUY APPS IN MALAYSIA!
1. Sign up for a Windows LIVE account (www.hotmail.com) that is registered to a real Singapore address. Go search for a real Singapore post code from the net. It doesn't matter if you don't live there. I don't know if it matters, but select the 'hotmail.com' option
2. Once you've done that, go to www.xbox.com. First thing you do is the change locale at the top left corner from US (by default) to Singapore. Not sure if this matters, but just in case. Then choose the JOIN NOW option at the top right corner.
3. When you are redirected to the type of Xbox Live account page you want, you can opt for the FREE option.
4. In the page where you are required to key in your email, type in the email you've just created. You will then be redirected to a page when you need to key in some basic contact details. Do the necessary. For some strange reason, the month of your birthday selection box will be in Chinese but since its arranged numerically, it's not an issue unless you cannot count to 12. Click I ACCEPT to proceed.
5. In the next page, you can set your 'gamertag' of your choice. A gamertag is your nickname/avatar on Xbox Live. The first time is free so choose wisely. To change your gamertag next time, its 800 MS points or about RM30. After choosing your gamertag, go back to MY ACCOUNT.
6. Under the ACCOUNT INFORMATION option, choose EDIT PAYMENT OPTIONS. In the next page, fill in a real Singapore address you chose earlier and click NEXT.
7. In the next page is where you fill up your Malaysian credit card details. Do the necessary. No need to change the Singapore address you've just keyed in. Click NEXT to proceed.
8. And you're done! Your credit card is now linked to your LIVE account.* Note that if you've created a fresh LIVE account for this, you need to hard reset your phone and tie in the new LIVE account. That also means that all your contacts and info on LIVE (Messenger, hotmail, etc) is gone. Sorry.
*Okay. I have to note that I did not make any transactions to see if my card works with this newly created account. My card (Citibank Visa) works with my existing LIVE account so there should be no reason that it doesn't. So, please report back if this doesn't work ok? No need to complain or b**** about it.

Must this be a fresh Live ID? Because I'd hate to use a fresh live ID because all my shit is on Skydrive already
