    If you brought the ultimate, i'd just keep an eye out for the email address tied to your xbox account. I know that my account that's tied to xbox is not the one I use everyday, so I may miss a notification here and there. If this is not your case than I
    check your inbox to make sure it's not a smart inbox that placed your email into a special folder like promotions or maybe marked it as junk. Just a thought.

    Hope it helps in any fashion, I found mine in a mailbox I had rules for named "X box" (rules help organize your mail too )

    There is no workaround. the $46 dollars was purchased for a different region, so your account has to be the same as the region the $'s were bought in. Having a UK account means you need to use £'s instead.

    Can’t buy backwards compatible game using account balance

    Hi there

    This is due to the Microsoft balance (Microsoft store and Xbox one) and Xbox balance (which was used for 360 store) are 2 different systems in place that is why you cannot use Microsoft account balance to purchase the game. But if you had a gift card and
    redeemed it on the Xbox 360 console you would be allowed to use it on the 360 store.

    Hi Alex! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Microsoft credits.

    Kindly try to purchase on the Microsoft Xbox Store web browser online to see if it works.

    If it still doesn't work, I highly recommend you reach out to Microsoft Xbox Support for further assistance as they have the tools and resources to properly investigate this and possibly purchase using your Microsoft balance on your behalf:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us/

    Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

    Best Regards,
    Darhyl
