Hi Everyone,
I am currently in Canada and i have created my hotmail account here 7 years ago, so, my accounts region is Canada, this is the same account I use for my Wndows Phone and I have bought over 40 Applications from the market place.
The question:
I will be moving to Dubai (middleeast) september, and I have been reading around that I cannot change region when trying to add a new patment method (Like adding a Visa Card that i will be getting from dubai).
What advice you have on this, I feel that i will be forced to create a new hotmail account and forget about all my applications and I have to go through moving all the contacts and calender stuff which is a real pain!!! Plus, what if after 10-15 years I decided to move back to canada, or any other country??
What about the Surface that I am going to buy, this is a serious matter if I start buying apps for the Windows 8 Market Place and the Payment method is restricted by Regionand cannot be changed.
Edit:
Yes, I do know that the Market place will be available world wide around october november.
Thanks,
