    How do I fix service unavailable (00x80a40401)?


    I am living abroad. I have a UK email, and yet since the 4th May I cannot login to my email on xbox, and I cannot use any service on my Xbox.

    I get the following message.

    Service Unavailable

    You appear to be in a region where this service is not available. (0x80a40401)

    How can I fix this?

    :)

    I see. Please also try the steps below to sort it out.

    Solution 1: Do a power cycle to clear the cache of the console



    1. Turn off the Xbox console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds until it shuts down completely.

    2. Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 10 seconds.

    Important Be sure to wait 10 seconds. This step resets the power supply.

    3. Plug the console power cable back in.

    4, Press the Xbox button on your console to turn on the Xbox console.



    Solution 2: Do a factory reset



    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    2. Select System > Settings > System > Console info.

    3. Select Reset console.

    4. Reset and keep my games & apps.
