    Why can't I redeem a code that my friend payed 20$ for in the uk?


    Its a pack for war thunder and it's worked before but why not now? He bought me a 50$ last year for christmas? If it still doesnt work is there a chance he can be refunded at least?

    :)

    specialization question

    No you shouldn't have any issues, but that code will only work on the gamertag that you redeem it on. I gave my code to a friend that lives in the UK and they were able to redeem it just fine.

    Backwards compatible games & region

    Yeah i get why they're not available. But Gears of War and Fallout are available in the UK so thats not the issue. The issue is my account region and actual region don't match. I could probably redeem the codes if I switched over to a UK region but thats
    a big hassle for me since I would have to pay for everything in a different currency.

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

    Xbox gift codes/Xbox codes are geo-locked which means that we can only redeem a code that was purchased in the same region as ours, that's why your friend in the US was not able to redeem the code.

    For your reference, you can check this link: https://support.xbox.com/en-UK/help/subscriptio...

    Gears of War redeem code is wrong region

    When done via the Website it is an XBOS-3012 code. This is with everything set to my UK region - English (UK) in the bottom left corner, same on my console itself etc. When I try to redeem on the console itself, I get "You can't acquire this item in your
    currently selected language..." and "XboxPurchaseMismatchedMarketAndLanguage" down the bottom left.

    Why would I need to use a region migration tool? I'm in the UK, everything is set to the UK...
