    Rent Movies?

    I have a Xbox 1 and I am trying to rent a movie. When i try to rent a movie i get a notification that says that i can not buy or rent videos right now. The reason it gives me is that i need to be in the region for my xbox profile. After going online and
    trying to change it my profile sets the language to the area that i am in. i do not understand the local language so is there any way i can change my region without changing the language setting?

    region error when trying to rent movie on Xbox 360

    Is your gamertag's region set to Canada or another country? If it is then perhaps the movie just is not available where you are.

    That is definitely a strange issue. I can't see why movies would be listed that are not available in Canada. I would recommend contacting phone support for more assistance on this.

    I'm having this same issue but I am in the U.S. This problem been going on for 3 days now. It's very annoying that I cannot rent or make purchases and I wish Microsoft will make a formal announcement to at least let us know that they are aware of the issue
    and they are working on it.

    region error when trying to rent movie on Xbox 360

    Phone support not being available today i got into chat with support. The lady i chatted with kept telling me that movies might just not be available in my region. I gave her 3 titles and she wrote back " i tried you title and it is not available in Canada
    right now"

    When i asked why and why i was able to view the movie preview but was not allowed to download it she could not answer .....said i tried with a new relase, a tv serie and was having same issue

    Even let her know that also suddenly i do not have access to gold free games and promo on the xbox360 but was able to view it on the website but when trying to download the free game from website was sent to another page asking for $9,99 .

    Told her that i think that clearly there must a a problem with my account all i got as an answer was to call support to get an update

  9. Hey, guys! You don't need to call support. If you would please direct your attention to this thread with the post by airmattdog (near the bottom there), he's got news that they
    are aware of the problem for those living in Canada. They don't have an estimated time for a fix, though. But keep an eye out for when we know when it's fixed!
