Not really. You have to migrate your account to the US for this to work on 360 and before you renew gold you will experience some bugs so for your own sake just renew gokd right after migrating account. Look at my previously created threads for details. Also some things are region locked (many apps, some old GoD titles).
On X1 you just change a setting in the dash.

I got the same thing after ordering Lego Marvel. Did you use your card's actual billing address or a random US one?
Edit - Cancelled my original order, bought an Amazon.com gift card and re-ordered. It went through pretty much straight away then.
Hmm, I think I'll set up an account and buy something. See how much of saving there is compared to buying from supermarkets or just waiting a couple of weeks for prices to drop naturally...
X1 is region free no? MS themselves suggested you could set up an account in a region that wasn't your own to buy content...
On Xbox One can you simply change to US region and buy a game then switch back to UK and play? Or do you have to stay on US to play it?
Any restrictions on the number of times you can switch regions?

I'm from a Tier 2 country. I bought AC IV, which on an european store costs 69.99, on the US store, it's 59.99$ + taxes. After conversion, 47 got charged on my CC. So I guess, it's pretty interesting.
Thanks a lot Caboose
My Visa card does not work, I used a Borderlinx address.
When I go through the payment it says 'payment type not supported'. My Paypal account shows as an option under my normal region, but not the US.

But my bank account don't <3 LOL. I caved in again and bought Ryse digitally.
Funny thing, I tried to do it from xbox.com but it resulted with an error message asking me to change payment method. But when I tried directly from the Store on my ONE, it went smoothly. I dunno why.
Oh there is a Billing and Info section on the Xbox One? Never noticed, I'll try that.
Yep, Payment & Billing. In there you can change your billing info for the current console setting region.
Cheers, so does it save both separate billing information for each region or do you have to re-enter each time you switch?
Sorry for hijacking the topic, but is this borderlinx site reliable for physical delivery? I've been constantly frustrated by the difference in price for electronic goods between EU and US.
This won't get anyone banned, will it?
Doesn't work for me. Change Xbox to us. Restart. Go to buy. Add my cc number. Name. Sec code. Use borderlix address. Gives error. Tells me to ask bank. What am I missing?
I do not know.
You from the UK? I'm using a Halifax card.
Anyone with a spare 5 minutes can do me a step by step? (with pics even)
Also:
Could I just buy $60 from amazon. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F4CFAV8/?tag=neogaf0e-20 add it to my account and buy it like that? Would that work?
Sweden. Yes you could however Amazon wants a US billing address just like MS. The same error could show up on Amazons website. Give it a try. Don't forget to redeem the code on the dashboard while you're in the US region. The codes are, AFAIK, region locked in that way.
hey caboose i tried this with peggle 2 the other day but i couldnt get it to work. i used my german visa card and typed the borderlinx address into the field but it gave me an error after i tried to buy it.
does it even work with non us credit cards ?
It does sound more complicated than it is, but now my card with US details is saved all I have to do it the future is changed region on my Xbone.
This Paypal method is interesting though and a good find! Would I have to change region on Xbox.com every time though?
This has been made way too complicated!

I thought they implemented some Kind of online Region lock

Will BF 4 premium work as well? I see I can buy it but would like to confirm it will work.
Anyone verified that there aren't some kind of locks built into the game add ons?
