    I can not pay with local currency


    Hi,

    I have my info updated for a while. My address is correct. It is Turkey

    But when I try to buy in game credits like (world of Tanks) I need to pay in US Dollar.

    How can I solve this issue and pay in Turkish Lira currency.

    ( I contacted WoT and my ticket replied with an answer "contact xbox support")

    When I try the following:

    "Moving your Xbox Live AccountPlease select the region you're moving your account to"

    I receive this error:

    "There’s a problem completing your move right now. Please check the Region Change Support Page to make sure it will work for you, and try again later."

    Thanks in advance

    :)

    Am I able to buy Minecraft with USD even though I live outside of the US?

    you must always pay with your local currency

    Can't pay with my local currency

    As far as I know, you can't use your balance to make purchases on Xbox.com and have to use options like a credit card or Paypal.

    I'd suggest finding a way to get through those personal info and credit card prompts on your console and make your purchases through there, because you can definitely use your balance there.

    Can't pay with my local currency

    Found the answer on my own. The MS/Xbox site is completely useless in this regard. I found that a web search didn’t fare much better as they are all moderated and most results looped back to MS/Xbox.

    In any case, for anyone else that also has this problem. You are SOL. Microsoft will NOT allow you to make any purchase WITHOUT an alternate form of payment such as Visa/Mastercard/Paypal. This effectively negates the purpose of a prepaid card.

    So if you are…

    1)A child or a young adult, you will not have a visa and unless your parents lend you their’s, you are SOL

    2)A parent of a child or young adult and you wish to use prepaid to prevent your children from overspending or maxing out your credit card, you are SOL

    3) If you are the other half of the population that doesn’t trust online security given recent hacks to the other sites and the current Heartbleed virus, you are SOL

    I’m going to try and dig out an old Visa Cash card as I’ve heard that that works.

    The console was where this problem started from. When I tried to make my first purchase from the xbox 360, it went directly into asking for billing info. I wasn't about to fill any of that out especially since I was using an outstanding amount in my account
    from gift cards. I don't trust any of that since Sony, Steam and a few others got hacked this year and especially not after that whole heartbleed fiasco.
