    Region Locked Trying to Change Gamertag


    I am trying to make payment for changing my Gamertag. However, when entering my card details, the country was locked to United States. My billing info and everything on my account are already set to my country (Malaysia). But it's somehow still locked when I try to make payment on changing my gamertag. What do I do now?

    :)

    Why I can't change my gamertag??

    You should be able to change your gamertag from any country. If you're trying to change it from the website and it's locking you to the US, change the region in the bottom left corner of the site.
