    My Microsoft Store is suddenly displaying in the wrong currency


    I'm trying to renew my subscription for the game pass and I logged in to find that my account is showing some weird currency symbol for the cost of the subscription. So I googled the symbol and it turns out it's the Indian rupee symbol. But I'm from the US. I have never changed my region. My region in the store AND in Windows is shown as United States. But when I try to buy the sub it shows India and I can't change it. This just started happening out of the blue. Please provide a fix for this ludicrous system.

    :)

    My Microsoft Store is suddenly displaying in the wrong currency REHASH

    Hi there! Let's do our best to get this sorted out.

    Technically, the website auto-detects our location based on our IP address. In some instances, it may default to some country like in the US. But as far as I know, once you go through the checkout process, it will give you the correct currency based on your account region and billing information if the product/service is supported in your country OR if it doesn't change, it would not show your payment method on your account unless you add a payment method that was issued on the same country of the store currency. In addition, you could get a geo-block error of your transaction if the store region and your physical region & account region don't match.

    On the reference thread you provided above, it could happen if a person redeemed a code that was originated from another country. A redeemable code especially for subscription is linked to a certain country which cannot be changed.
