    I'm sorry you are having such trouble. I just want to clarify though, why can't you buy these things? What happens? Do you get an error message? Walk me through trying to rent a movie. Also with buying a game add-on. Thanks!

    Why can't I buy things anymore?

    Hi Paul.

    My name is Renato.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    I inform you that here in the community, we are all users and do not have access to your data and account. We can only offer you advice based on our knowledge and experience.

    I'm sorry that you are unable to add a valid payment method for your Xbox. Unfortunately, there is not much we can do to help you.

    First and foremost, you should naturally ensure that you have selected Canada as your location.
    Go to Settings > System > Language & Location and ensure your location is set to Canada.

    Additionally, you should try an alternative connection to the one you are using, or ask your provider if the fact that you are being identified as being in the USA could be due to the IP address they have assigned to you.

    I can only suggest, as you may already know, using gift cards for your purchases.

    I'm sorry I can't do more for you.

    KInd regards

    so much DLC paid for and now my xbox live isn't working.

    Same thing happened to me but I can't buy live

    The xbox will not allow me to install a certain game. the installation will stop close to 0% and pop up with error message

    It would help if the op posted if it's digital or a disc copy & what things they have tried.

    Not sure why you can't buy anything either.
