Looking for some german and austrian gamers

You don't seem to understand how the codes work

No you cannot buy German euro codes with a Austrian euro currency card that's not how the website works

Even if your account region is German and you enter an Austrian code you get Austrian euro currency

That's the same with a French or Russian or UK or American codes

What is deposited is the currency of the actual card

You won't be able to see the German or purchase german content unless you add a German payment method like a German currency card or creditcard

That's the same with austrian

If you added a Austrian card it will go directly to your Austrian side of your account and won't be visible until you follow bijou instructions

german account + austria physical location = region mismatch therefore region lock

austrian account + austrian location = download

I did not buy an out of region code...

I bought an austrian code in Austria.... but the money was transferred to a german region because i was logged in at the german region (Xbox website) (which is standard in austrian browsers.... thats weird). But i was logged in with my normal Austrian account....

I really have don't understand why microsoft does this. Its really frustrating...

Thank you for your reply, Miss Bijoux. I think i will use the money the way you described. There is nothing else i can do... i guess

@ngocphi: sorry to say that, but you are completely wrong:

"a French or Russian or UK or American codes" are complete different...i already know that

Austria and Germany issues are completely different

The problem is that we speak German as well in Austria, thats why there is no "Austrian" site available...

trust me, or try it yourself if you don't believe me... I can use every Austrian code to my "German profile" which shouldn't even exist...

I never added "German" information or "German codes" to my profile. Never! And the money from my "Austrian code" in my "Austrian Profile" got transfered to a "German profile"

I only used a German Website, because the language in Austria is "German". An Austrian website doesn't exist!

and i talked to the support: they did not exchange the code, as i told you earlier. They were not very useful.

and "Austria" is not "Australia"

Even if you put a Austrian euro card you would only receive Austrian euro cards on a German account

I'd be talking to your retailer about the card
