Language settings

I’m highly frustrated that every time I have to update my Xbox payment options I have to change the damn language to Chinese.

Living in Hong Kong where English is an official language along side Chinese I’m amazed at the short sightedness of Microsoft to not let english be an option. Oh, it’s an option to function as a console but to specifically deal with payment options it demands
Chinese. This means for a confidential operation I need to bring in my Chinese neighbour to do it for me.

I mean what the hell?! Who’s idea was it to program this way??!

Rant over. Highly frustrated. I actually wanted to email but I can’t see an option for that

You're right, I tried to set the Russian at the console and the game runs in Russian. This therefore means however, that the time needed in the English version of the extra Czech. This is commonly available on the market, but the code that I have that I
can not support. Do you agree with me?

So. After a long time of thinking I finally got One today and obviously was excited to set it up to be ready for some gaming. The setup asked what language I wanna use. I decided I want to use the console in English as I'm used to having my 360 in English
so I figured I'd be more familiar with the system in that language. So, then it asked for where I live. A list of English speaking countries and a few odd ones like Hungary or Slovakia. No Finland or any other Nordic country to choose from. I thought it was
a bit weird but ended up picking the UK thinking the setting was as useless as the locale setting on the 360. Went to the Marketplace and what do I see? Prices in British pounds. The only way to see the Finnish prices turned out to require me to have my location
set to Finland. That's ok and expected. What isn't ok is that the console doesn't allow me to use it in English and keep my country as Finland. Why not? Why am I not free to choose from all of the available languages regardless of my home country? I much prefer
English even if my native language is Finnish - I simply don't even understand some of the options in Finnish as I do all my tech stuff in English! Since the console obviously contains all those languages, why not let the user freely pick a preferred language?

PS. There is a significant Swedish speaking minority in Finland yet they can't now choose Swedish apparently since choosing Finland only offers Finnish. What is this backwards thinking Microsoft has going on?
