    I accidentally bought an Xbox live gold card from a different region


    So I bought this Xbox live gold card a couple of months back. It turned out to be from a different region. Can I still use the card? I think I can change my region to do so but is there some legal issue with that?

    :)

    Activating Gold error

    Xbox live gold cards are region locked you shouldve bought from within your region

    If you moved and didnt change your region under manage my account then you should do so

    I purchased a 3month ultimate gamepass from the store it says the subscription and store region are not the same , but they are ! Also the $1 ultimate month gamepass says the same can you help

    If you got gold from another region then no you can't use a different payment method

    For example if you have a cad payment method but bought a cheaper us discount code jt wont work your payment method must match the gold

    Or if you aren't in a xbox live region this applies too

    You have to live in a xbox xgu region and have a payment method from that region

    Is the region on your account the same as the region you bought the card from? That code usually means you're trying to redeem a card from a different region.

    XBL Points code not valid

    Yes, microsoft point cards are often region locked and Australia is different region then Asia.

    The points bought, are only suitable for Asian Xbox Live accounts.
