Everlong241 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 (edited) I recently moved to Canada and my Xbox account is a US account. I had always bought my Microsoft points in the US and worked fine. I bought some here in Canada and didn't know they weren't compatible. I really wanted to get a new map pack. :( Is there any way to transfer the points to the US account, or maybe buy with a Canadian account and transfer? Or would anyone be willing to trade my 1400 Canadian MS points for some US ones? Edited March 27, 2009 by Everlong241 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User6060 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 you would think points were points globally and you just pay different amounts online or retail :s maybe you could call xbox live support and either have them transfer your account into a canadian one or give you your purchased points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew S. Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 yea the problem might be that your account is still taged an a us account, just switch it to canada in your live profile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew S. Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 upon switching the location it should switch, at least thats how the rest of the world wroks when you switch something like that... try logging into your account for the payment stuff and see if theres a setting there.

OhMuffin Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 upon switching the location it should switch, at least thats how the rest of the world wroks when you switch something like that...try logging into your account for the payment stuff and see if theres a setting there. It doesn't do that... When I went to the States with my Xbox, I changed my local and gamertag address to an American one. I wanted to get my buddies netflix going. It didn't work. It still gave me Canadian content in Florida. Hardly Canada now.. is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
