gift code redeem issue

i got this error when redeeming gears of war and gears of war3 gift codes 'you can't acquire this item in your currently selected language, change your language region in settings"

:)

 

code redemption

hey i was wondering when you guys were going to have the current issue of not being able to redeem gift card codes fixed

 

Redeem Code error "This code isn't active yet".

I received an xbox gift card for Christmas. When I enter the redeem code I receive "This code isn't active yet". How does that happen and how do I redeem my gift card?

 

The games are region locked so in order to download, your account region has to match your physical location and you have to live in a region where the games are available for download.

 

Remember language independence is only an xbox one feature not xbox 360

As mentioned by smwutches your account region and actual region and console region must match

 

Hey loai -

As mentioned by Smwutches and ngocphi, it sounds like your Xbox Live account region doesn't match your current physical location. The Gears of War codes in particular are very finicky when it comes to redemption so if you do have a region mismatch, you'll
want to migrate your account to your correct region and then try again.

Keep us posted!
