Can’t redeem Code from ARG via VPN

Hey, I bought an Argentinian key for that AC Bundle (https://www.xbox-now.com/goto?url=https://www.eneba.com/xbox-assassins-creed-legendary-collection-xbox-live-key-argentina%3Faf_id%3Dxbox-now%26currency%3DEUR) which is apparently not available in the German Xbox Store.

After travelling to ARGENTINA via VPN and trying to redeem the code I get the following error message:

“We can’t find this product. This code no longer works. Contact the retailer or person you got it from.”

What am I doing wrong?
This isn’t the first time I’m redeeming an Argentinian key.
Is it because it’s a “special bundle” that is not available in various stores?

After contacting both eneba and MS support I was guaranteed that the code is working.

Thank you

you need to temporarily change your account region to argentina

I was recently having an issue with my VPN (Private Internet Access) although that wasn’t the error I was getting. I got the iOS app for X-VPN and signed up for the 7 day trial and it worked normally.

for anyone who wants to know if this is working as of November 7th 2022, it is, I used hola vpn on chrome to switch to argentina after changing my microsoft account info to also living in argentina. took maybe 40 minutes for the code to work after switching about locations but now i have cyberpunk for $55 less than it was on the xbox store. just writing this because i was looking to see if it still works and how to do it before it worked, it does work!

in my case, I’m looking for someone who lives in Argentina, and I’m trying to buy directly with that person through gift codes, and get a value more similar to that found in MS.

In case you still haven’t had any luck with this;

Use the Edge browser on your PC and install the Hola VPN Website Unblocker extension, then change the region to Argentina with the extension and redeem the key at https://redeem.microsoft.com/ while it’s enabled.

No need for anything else including region switching your account.

How is it possible to change the location temporarily?
I switched the xbox to Argentina location, but then I received the error that the code location and account location does not match (although I was connected with my iPhone that was connected to Argentina over vpn)

looks like hola vpn and urban vpn no longer work as of today 18/11/22 been trying for hours to get it to work but no joy, was good while it lasted.

https://account.microsoft.com/profile/

“edit profile info” → “country or region”

change it to argentina, redeem the code with a vpn (make sure it says argentina behind your email adress on the redeem page), change back to germany

You don’t need to, it’s just a slow trial process of keep reloading redeem.microsoft.com until it works while in VPN.

Sometimes I try and fail a hundred times before it goes thru. Gotta work for that cheap key.

yep, urbanVPN and Hola no longer work, redeemed a code just 3 days ago with Urban with no problem, today it’s impossible.

Luckily vpn.lat via iphone redeemed the code with success but I think that’s gonna be the last code I will purchase form other region, it’s getting difficult to redeem and not worthing the risk.

urbanVPN

Just tried vpn.lat on iOS and got it to work. NordVPN wouldn’t work for me

That was so stupidly easy :joy::joy: thanks a lot. Worked like a charm

you are lifesaver thank you brother, googled a lot and this actually helped

Thanks, this worked for me too. Had to wait about 30 minutes or so after changing the region for the codes to redeem.

You’re kidding, right?
Never had that issue before and I redeemed quite a few keys for ARG

why would you want to try a hundred times if you can just change your region in seconds and then back again?

u/whitebisonart Can you write what game key you successfully activated on VPN.lat? Is it possible that your key is still from “old stock”?
I have two keys from Argentina, the first one I bought half a year ago and it can be successfully activated on VPN.lat, the second one I bought yesterday, 18/11/2022 for the game that premiered on 17/11/2022 (As Far As The Eye) and on the same server on VPN.lat activation is unsuccessful.

hey bro, what vpn did you use? mine currently saying its geo locked :((

Sometimes I have good luck and redeem them first go too, I’m not kidding, it’s not seamless.
