So im from Greece,

And im very disappointed to see how many restricted things exist in my country.

I cant access the 50% or more , privildges.

I have bought the series s recently , i cant access some of the apps, also cant access microsoft rewards cant access movies nothing!!!

I even have xbox ultimate game pass , and i cant access the remote play the xcloud, nothing !!

Are you gonna fix it ?

Recently microsoft made a deal with my country about cloud servers on Greece.

Then why there is no accessibility to anyyhing in my country ?

Im veey dissapointed, not that you care(i see no official response about this problems).

This is not so much of a technical "problem" but it is more so a legal issue.

Besides licensing which can be different from one country to another (even within the EU) there are many legal restrictions on the content Microsoft is allowed to make available.

Have you contacted your elected officials or your representative in your country's or the EU parliament?

That is where you have to start because they first need to provide the legal platform before Microsoft can do anything that is limited by local law.

I know this isn't what you want to hear but sadly that is just the way it is and the only way to "fix" this is to make sure laws are being 'harmonized' internationally.

This is a common issue around the world. In Germany some Xbox games are not allowed (due to too much blood and gore) so people order those games in Austria instead to get around the "problem".

Hi,

Unfortunately a lot of other countries have similar problems. Some of them (like apps and movies availability) are related to licensing restrictions, sometimes Microsoft can not do anything about this. Some of services (like Microsoft Rewards or xCloud) are just not available in some countries. I'm from Poland and we also don't have access to a lot of things. You just need to be patient.

I don't know the age limit for asian countries but I suggest you to follow this article to set up your Microsoft account with a parent account linked to yours:

I'm trying to set up an Xbox Live or Microsoft Account (including Realms access for Child Accounts!)

This article is from Minecraft documentation but it refers to Microsoft account privacy settings so it is valid for all games.

Thanks once again @pasqualeeno. But the problem still persists with Microsoft Edge. I am writing you from Asia and what age should I use then to join clubs?

Hi Aryan,

Check your Microsoft account privacy settings here: https://account.xbox.com/settings

under the tab Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety.

Be sure the options You can create and join clubs and You can join multiplayer games are allowed.

I hope it helps

Regards
