Mine was blocked the other day. Ill attempt another tonight. Thanks

I just tried this morning using BigPay to buy from Argentina region and managed to grab Sekiro for cheap. 1799 Argentina pesos which is around RM77.12 after conversion. Definitely worth it.

I didn't use vpn whatsoever. Just switch region to Argentina and registered the card using Buenos Aires address. Works like a charm. Can't say it works for everyone though.

ya it is a hit or miss. sekiro was much cheaper earlier around rm40. i start to feel that actually xbox store has more deals compare to sony store and good thing is xbox deals is across all region most of the time. if u see game deal at US store, then argentina store will the same discount but diff price.

let me know if it works now, best of luck

Try everytime remove the card details. Meaning everytime also type in the card details. Just the enter address need to be Bueno Aires. I found that if the card details is saved inside it will fail. When everytime after purchase I remove card details and key in again next purchase will be successful

I think there are some RNG elements involved

just suddenly my BP card on my main account can be used again for the past few days, bought a few dirt cheap indie games with it also

Hi, first time Xbox buyer. Looking through the replies, VPN seems optional? Anyways I gonna use it anyways.

So the ideal process is register a new account with Argentina region/VPN. Then buy and gift to main account?

Do I need to be on Argentina VPN to redeem?

Thanks anyone that can help!

it appears from most forumers here using VPN (AR) payment success rate increases

I have an AR account set up with my cc set to recurring payment for XGPU in the AR store..so far payment goes through monthly.
But when I tried to purchase individual games with the same saved cc I get an error during payment.

I'm guessing I need to be in AR (via VPN) for the payment to work..that's just my theory

Ah I see, interesting that you got GPU to work in AR. I guess the best bet is VPN + AR region account. Will try that!

Personally I never have to use VPN to successfully buy on AR or TR store with BigPay, all I have to do setup the address and payment method on the console.

However there might be redemption issue with gifting if you are unlucky, in that case just use Hola Free VPN on your browser for the redeem process.

So I'm assuming you created a new account at AR region to do gifting? Yeah I think VPN to redeem seems less troublesome than to do the entire buy process, if I had to choose. Thanks for sharing your process.

I created an account with ARG region with ARG VPN, I used maybank debit card too but then it says "Change Store Region The issuing region of your payment option and the store region must match."

Any idea what is wrong here, i want to get AC Odyssey

Did you try it? if it worked could you let me know how it works?

Same here, doesn't work anymore tried a few times recently again but no luck

so loophole closed?

looks like yeah

Did you try that using browser or in the console itself?
What I normally do is set region in Console to Argentina.
Use a burner account to buy the games I want and gift it to the main account.
No VPN required in the process.
Browser always gives error. Console don't check your region.

woah I can use Maybank debit card in that way? & I used console btw,

Set my Xbox region to Argentina, used my Maybank debit card to purchase Borderlands 3 + Destiny silver on the console itself.

Purchase went through without a hitch.

I think the trick here is to always re-enter your payment info when you want to checkout, then delete the info after for your future purchases.
