I live in the US and i dont have a vpn on so how do you fix it??!!

I dont think you fully realize the issue

GIFTing is region locked

Period

So if your friend has a us account the funds would be still in US

AND cant be redeemed o. Anything but a US account

If it is a xbox 360 game those are region locked

There is a reason why vpn isnt recommended

You will have to address it with your vpn provider since it is against the terms of use we cant discuss how to fix it

But it would an common issue with the vpn services and you have to address it with the provider

how do i get it then should i use vpn or something i dont understand

Hi SadisticZeus,

Thank you for your reply! I really appreciate it.

Yes you are right, it is an IP address localisation issue. I have not yet connected the xbone via a VPN, tbh I haven't figured out how to do that yet with a router. However I do have a VPN on my Nexus 6 and found that using the smartglass app without the
VPN resulted in German achievements, but as soon as the app was refreshed with the VPN on the achievements were back in English. So it's a fix, and thank you for that. I hope Microsoft fix this, as it's clearly an unintended result. It makes little sense
that one sets the system language and yet you are confronted with a foreign language.

Just out of curiosity do you have a suggested method for running the Xbox via a VPN? Will this affect my multiplayer or my streaming speeds?

Again, thanks for the assist.

Best,
