Different discounts in different regions

MoorCATs K26 · Jun 20, 2020

Hello. I do not understand why such a difference in discounts in different regions. For example, now the discount on the digital version of the game "The Sims 4 - Deluxe Party Edition" in the USA is 90%. And in Russia - only 65%. Although in Russia in
a digital store we also buy games for US dollars, not for rubles. I don’t really like this attitude, because it turns out that in Russia this game at a discount is 3 times more expensive.

Regards, MoorCATs.

Hello! unfortunately it has always been like this, and not only for digital products. I'm afraid it has to do with regulations that vary all over the world.

Hey there SkeletonDalton,

Prices and promotions can vary by region. In this case, we double checked and the price is accurate for both regions. You'll want to keep an eye on
news.xbox.com as well as
majornelson.com for the latest deals and promotions.

The issue isn't that it isn't available in your region south africa

The issue is you are trying to get content not intended for your region

That's what the error is telling you

You cannot use region locked content outside of its intended region

So us or UK content must be downloaded with a UK or us physical region

You must use the region migration tool under my account and change your region on this website to correct it and then change the account region appropiately

For the best experience with xbox live you must use your physical region for your account region or you will continue to have issues

Bulgaria isnt the same region you are talking about something completwly different

Bulgaria isnt a xbox live region therefore the problem

Xbox live regions are by country NOT continents

Now.back.to your issue

From.thr sounds of it.you didnt do.a Migration

But somwthing else

Changing the setting on https://accounts.microsoft.com doesnt migrate the region but causes what you are seeing now.region conflict

This is why you MUST use the region migration tool as mentioned in my first post

Chsnging the region on https://accounts.microsoft.com only allows you to chsnge the ms account not. The xbox.live accounts region

As mentioned before its not a one click option and gives three warnings ontop.of the 3month warning

Changing the ms account region only allows you to add a different regions billing address not.migration

Which allows you to use xbox one but not xbox 360 as the xbox account must be the same which is why you are getting that error

You can also.confirm with xbox support

Xbox actually goes by your xbox account region regardless of your console setting on the webpage

Hi!

Everything is set to Italy, in every page/setting possible. I've checked already a couple of times..

But now that you mentioned it, idk if the region has been "migrated" cause im still using my friend's account. (He set everyhing to Italy once we got here.)

But what if the data hasn't been migrated? Can you tell me how to do that? As i have no idea how to do it and what it consists of?
