not sure.
from reddit, they said even with VPN, cannot use certain store (argentina, turkey, india, south africa).
next year for RE9, i may change to south korea.
if fail, then no more game pass, no more digital game.  sweat.gif

M$ has enable region block for payments in those stores, so your payment method need to be the native payments from those location, ie no foreign CC will be accepted
So VPN is useless in this situation

for the stores still accepting paypal like the US store, then there shouldn't be any issues buying the games using it

and for the stores still accepting gift cards, new account + VPN + gift cards reload is the way to go

Is it because the Xbox detects the outbound IP?

I recently moved my Xbox account to New Zealand... if I ask someone over there to redeem the code directly to my account would it work?

should work if the code you tried to redeem is from NZ store

I already set the billing address for my MS account to NZ, and changed my Xbox region to NZ.

So for example if I get someone to buy a $25 gift card in NZ and I redeem the code with my PC, it should work?

Or does the code have to be redeemed from a PC in NZ as well?

Or should I just move everything to US instead?

I think you'll need to redeem it either using NZ VPN or from a PC/xbox in NZ

changing your xbox region is just changing the store to NZ store
