Has anybody ever had game traffic being sent to Ireland. Microsoft Limited great Britain.....

Hi,

These forums are largely community based, in most cases you won't get an official response from a Microsoft employee.

I can only guess that the shipping issues are probably tied in with complexities of Brexit and the Northern Ireland protocol. Indeed, the biggest sticking point with Brexit was, and is, the land border between NI and the Republic of Ireland.

However, I understand the rules are changing from the end September next year.

Hi, I have redeemed a code, Microsoft balance says multi currency GBP 50 but unable to use it, have tried changing the region to Ireland/ Great Britain but this still hasn’t helped

Thanks

There are a lot of "smaller" languages in the world, and the Xbox only has limited storage space for it's operating system.

Since Wales belongs to "Great Britain", the locale for language in Wales on Xbox is therefore "(en-GB) English (Great Britain)".

While technically it's about storage space, you could say, that while Welsh is an official language in Wales, English is also the official language. Therefore Xbox did only choose the "more general" English language for every country in Great Britain.

No, you can't. Northern Ireland isn't listed as an Xbox supported region so the controller can't be shipped there.

For reference see here https://www.xbox.com/en-US/regions

Hi, I’ve checked the XBox link and the United Kingdom is there. Northern Ireland is still part of the UK (Great Britain & Northern Ireland) and even if it was deemed instead to be linked to the island of Ireland as sometimes happens with trade Northern Ireland should be included there instead. It all seems a bit strange and the glitch needs fixed.

What about PS3 guise? I don't have Gold ;_;

Watch Breaking Bad. It's a travesty of epic proportions that this isn't getting more exposure in Britain and Ireland. No channels on Sky show it for some reason despite it being leagues ahead of the likes of Mad Men and Boardwalk Empire.
