    Changing Account Regions


    Hello. I want to migrate my region to Korea, from Canada, as I live in the ROK now. I can change my region on my actual Xbox 360. However, when I go to change it here (Sign in to your Microsoft account)
    there is no option for Korea (even though there is an option to select it on xbox.com 대한민국 (Korea)). Any help would be appreciated.

    Cheers.

    :)

    no it isn't against the rules

    HOWEVER

    you will have issues two fold

    you cant use a out of region creditcard so you have to purchase the correct region MS points

    also

    region locked content cannot be accessed outside the region

    for the BEST experience with live your physical region must always m,atch your ACCOUNT REGION

    or you will have issues with certain region locked content

    Changing Account Regions

    Hello,

    When you log into Xbox online you can change the country on the bottom left hand corner of the page. Click the country then select the one you want. See if this helps.

    For migrating I assume you have done this:

    How to change your region

    1. Go to the Account migration page.

    2. Sign in using the account that you want to migrate to another region.

    3. At the bottom of the page, click Next.

    4. On the “Moving your Xbox Live account” page, select the region that you’re moving your account to, then click I Accept.

    There are some things that can stop the migration:

    You won’t be able to change your region if any of the following conditions apply:

    * You changed regions within the last three months.

    * Your account is currently suspended (for example, if the credit card on one of your memberships has expired).

    * You have an Xbox 360 Entertainment For All contract.

    * You are a minor (as defined by applicable law) in your current region and will not be a minor in the region that you want to change to.

    * You are currently not a minor (as defined by applicable law) in your current region and will become a minor in the region that you want to change to.

    As Korea is an option in the regions (bottom left) I have to assume it is available when you migrate. Yet if non of this helps you may be best to contact support directly either online or via twitter @XboxSupport

    Good luck & happy gaming

    Console region has no effect on account region

    To.match your account region to your physical region you must change it on this website

    My account and change my region

    Then change the console region

    Fallout 3 Code not Working

    Your account region not just the console region must match your actual region

    To change this you must goto my account and change my region on this website

    Then change the locale of the console

    Changing the locale has no bearing on your account region and your account region must reflect your actual region

    Newbie problem with location settings on xBox 360

    Because your account region doesn't reflect your actual region is why you are failing

    You cannot change the account region until the account reaches 90days

    Since you are only 2 days in

    Changing the locale of the website doesn't change your account region

    To change the account region it must be done on the website using the migration tool under account and change my region

    You redeemed it on the correct regional website but you don't have a czech account that's the issue

    Fallout 3 redeem code not working

    That's not the account region we are refering to

    That's the console region

    To see your account region you must go to commerce.microsoft.com

    To change your region you must first use the region migration tool under my account and change my region on this website

    Then change the console region

    Error 80150017. Good evening guys. could somebody please give me a hand?

    It doesn't matter what region you changed your account region to

    Your account region must reflect your actual region

    This can only be changed every 3months

    On this website under my account and change my region
