  1. Xbox live - my country is not supported


    Hello,

    I just bought a new Xbox one and wanted to get a gold live subscription and a game pass, but i probably should've read more before the actual purchase as it turns out my country - Bulgaria, isn't in the live supported countries..

    Can you give me some advice on what to do? Should i pick a different region when im creating an account on my console, or is that illegal and in general is there anything i can do, or im stuck with playing demos ..

    Thank you in advance!

    :)

    It depends on the laws and regulations for your country. Microsoft has to work within those bounds and it's a slow process to expand.

    Hi Salvatore,

    Thanks for coming to the forums with your question. Sorry tot hear about the issue with live not in your region. Think the best thing you could do here, is find like gamers in your area and ask them how they game. As changing regions is considered marketplace
    fraud if you do not live in that region.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Okay, i see your point, Brad, and thank you for the quick answer, but at the same time, let's say i pick the UK as a region, im going to have to pay for everything in pounds..

    The Bulgarian lev compared to the British pound is 1.00lv : £0.44

    So if a game costs £20, im going to have to pay 45.26 lv.. meaning I'd be at a great financial disadvantage here, considering the local market and economy of the country.

    So how could it still be considered a fraud?

    A fraud means some sort of a wrongful deception that one is using in order to insure a financial or personal gain, and in this case i'd be paying twice as much as what someone in the UK would pay for the game, again considering i live in a much poorer region
    of the EU.

    Nothing would be cheaper for me and I won't gain anything financially, and personally - it would be easier to change camps and buy a different console.

    But i bought an Xbox one, because i love it and I've always wanted to have one.

    Also, I'm going to be studying in the UK in a few months, so technically I'd be moving to that region anyway.

    Isn't there a legal way of me doing that now, or im going to have to wait half a year to use the console I bought now?

    ..

    I'm not trying to argue or anything, just genuinely trying to figure out what to do with this whole situation

    But yeah, i guess I'm just going to ask other people what do they do.

    Thank you for your time!

    The thing is that you buy it and later on you get to know that you are not able to do a lot of things that you were expecting to do, if you paid for the console, why is our country forbidden to get acces to all the benefits, we paid the same that you paid
    in the states, and is not fair that we get these kind of treatment.

    Hey mate, did you happen to buy MS points that are not for your region? MS points are region locked so you would have issues redeeming in another country.
