Since I'm still on my trial account, which route should I take? US or SG account?

QUOTE(ionStorm @ Feb 12 2007, 11:22 AM) Umm...if you've activated your trial, there's no way of changing your location unless you make a new profile. Yeah, I'm aware of that.I prefer US. They've got more content that I want. The latest content on the asian market is just some stupid asian music video...bah.  So, I have to create a fresh account, make sure it's US... only then I can use the trial card that you will be getting right? Argh, if that's the case, I have to start thinking of a new gamertag. // -- QUOTE(stalkie @ Feb 12 2007, 11:35 AM) really ar? anyone can confirm ar.... don't wish to collect my game points again ler... As for your case, you can just use the card to activate your account. You will only need to create a new account if you wanna change the billing address like me. Sigh...

Eh? I thought that's the main difference between US and other accounts? They have more content like tv shows & movies...

I tried downloading one free tv show, seems to work fine. Stupid show though, some comedy. Can't remember the title.
Didn't try others yet, will do so later. I guess it won't work anyways eh? What's up with the 10 GB usable space on the HDD.... freaking small ler. There's only 100 MB left on mine.... and I don't know what to clear... I want it all, and MOREEEEEEEEEEEE..... |

Credit Card works that's for sure. You just can't use CC to purchase Points if your account is in the US.
As for renewing using cancelled card, you can check with judgethe regarding that. So, did you managed to renew your account using ionStorm's prepaid card? |

Hmm... so that means it's possible for them to change the country, but they just don't wanna let us do it?
If that's the case, if I want a US account (for the contents and all), how do I safely topup the MS Points? |

Maybe that's their way of making more money out of us since we're not giving them enough money.
So, Djinn, have you heard of anything like what Leenaz encountered (topup asian points, account changed to SG region) before? |
