  2. Using UK Xbox in the US

    I have a UK bought Xbox360 which I brought with me to the US. I hooked it up and started using my gamertag I used in the UK and noticed that I didn't have Netflix etc. So I knew I couldn't change the region so I decided to play some Call of Duty Black Ops
    online and even though I set preferences to local I kept getting connected to UK hosts which made the game lag badly for me.

    I thought that maybe because it's a UK account that the servers will still think i'm in the UK. I made this gamertag that I am currently signed in with but it has a hotmail address ending in .co.uk. However, I have Netflix etc. on the dashboard now so i'm
    sure this gamertag is a US region locked one. Sadly, I still get connected to UK players quite often on Black ops. Is this because my e-mail ends in .co.uk or is it because Treyarchs servers are just crap?

    You should never use a 3rd party device on your console as it is not covered by the Microsoft Warranty if something were to go wrong.

    I would suggest contacting phone support and seeing if there's something they can do to get you a proper Xbox One power brick and plug.

    Thanks for the replies.

    I contacted xbox support and they told me they are not electrical experts so they advised me to go to an electronics shop and ask for help. When I did, they told me to buy that adapter (from the link). Is there anywhere we can get the official xbox uk adapter
    from?

    Ok, I'm sorry you did not get the correct answer from support. You can actually order the proper plug and power bar for the Xbox One console through them.

    You can place an order for the proper item through the Repair Page.

    http://myservice.xbox.com/

    Click on Replace an Accessory and follow the instructions.

    Using a US Xbox One S in the UK

    It's perfectly fine, you can change your consoles location to match the UK's marketplace. If you cannot pre-download Battlefield 1 with the UK market, simply switch to the US.
