Yes. I heard many ppl got blocked for around 2 days or 2 weeks or something. Just make sure buy all games u want first. 😆

with Turkish Lira exchange rate freefalling recently, seem it's cheaper to buy from there compared to Argentina
eg: Shadow of the Tomb Raider Definitive Edition
Ar: 999.75 = RM45
Tr: 65.00 = RM33

gonna try to switch the Turkey region tonight to see can buy or not, since my Ar store was blocked

That’s great. Can alternate between the 2 stores when it’s locked. 👍🏻💪🏻😊

My bigpay card at Arg store is still locked. Saw that there's some big discount on Watchdogs Legion earlier today. Cheapest is Argentina store (about RM54, bargain!), but i couldn't pass payment.

Found out that Mexico store is 2nd cheapest at RM65. My Bigpay couldnt go through at Mexico store either, so i tried with paypal. 1st attempt didnt go through but 2nd attempt went through after alternating between bigpay card and paypal. Maybe alternating between bigpay card and paypal confused the system??? lol i dont know, but it worked on my 2nd attempt. RM65 for Watchdogs Legion is definitely a bargain!

That’s great. I have US PayPal account but Argentina store don’t accept right? Glad that Mexico accept.

I normally use this to check price.

Argentina cheapest followed by Mexico and Colombia

Alot of games start on sale today. Mostly argentina store still cheapest

Bro are you able to buy? I've been trying all day, no success.

Dont keep try in same day. Try tomorrow or different account.

I found a trick if you keep having trouble purchasing and getting don't know what happened error no matter how many times you try, gift the game to your email. I tried it and the payment goes through right away.

If you don't get the gift email in your inbox like me for some reason, go to the xbox site and get the game code from.the order history.

Great tips, didn't know you can gift to yourself. But won't it freeze your own account anyway?

I hope not, if they are going to restrict this they could have make it send able to friends account only and not email or better yet region lock the codes. Well technically you aren't gifting to yourself, you are just sending it to your friends email. Your friend decide not to play, you have no choice but to redeem it yourself

You could have use a different email from your Xbox account and it would work just fine. The gift email was so delayed, I finally gotten it after 7 hours.

strange, I've tried that before, gifting it either to my own email or others email still gave me the same error, can't purchase

maybe I'll try again tonight and see if it's working again or not

tried again last night with both pc & console, both no joy

When was your last purchase? Account Already freezed? Try using another account to gift to main account?

last successful purchase was about 2 months back

tried using one of my dormant account last month also no go

maybe they've traced my CC details, I'll wait for one my new CC to arrive then will try again

Hmm, that's weird. Apply Big Pay. Best forex rates.

Hey Grey are you able to purchase any games? No such luck for me.

Its quite tricky and sometimes hit n miss....just create new account and gifted to my main account with the same cc..success...

Anyone tried turkey store or not? Seems like new game preorder macam tales of arise, turkey sell like 35usd only..

Just now tried sub acc, buy cod:cw ultimate at console use bigpay with argentina address, it went thru.

Bought sekiro too, but then i bought them as gift. should just buy in the sub account. Because when i want to redeem the gift code, it says the region is diff. Tried redeem at xbox, store set to argetina, also same. Then tried redeem at the account i bought the game, using xbox store set argentina also same. Use website also same. eventho my email showing xxx@gmail.com(argentina) at the redeem page, when key in it will check the code and say error the region is diff.

Tried create an account and set location is Argentina, tried redeem, also same. Last resort, turn on my expressvpn to argentina, and tried redeem via website, and it works. phew.

So if wan buy, better buy straight, if not gift card need VPN to redeem.

Update: i switch my VPN server to US, and try check the code, and no error
