I tried with bigpay 2 days ago and it worked. Tried to purchase online but cannot. Have to do it in Xbox. no need VPN or anything. Just added big pay card and set Buenos Aires address. Zip code have to be correct I think. Change Xbox location to Argentina and buy like normal.

BigPay has similar rate as XE.com and it is much cheaper than any bank CC in Malaysia.

I just bought fifa 21 using this method, it works bro! Used bigpay too with some googled address in city of palermo, argentina. Was charged only rm79.12 for the game on my bigpay.

Thanks for the guide, guys! Really useful for new xbox user like me.

Just an update, i tried to buy a 2nd game (Far Cry 4 for 520 Arg Peso, about RM23.50) after that but payment was blocked. I've tried the following:

removed and then added back my bigpay = didn't work
changed to a different Argentina address = didn't work
restarted by xbox console = didn't work
Changed back to US region, restarted console, then changed again to Argentina region followed by restarting console = also didn't work


Lol, i guess my next option is to wait 72 hours before buying again. Will keep you guys updated.

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!
