Been hunting for this for a few days, and this seems to be the best price. Please use the following for buying from another region (https://www.hotukdeals.com/discussions/xbox-one-buying-from-colombia-guide-works-for-all-regions-2326463)
Comes out Friday 29th Sept (1400uk)
Synopsis of game:
Cuphead is a classic run and gun action game heavily focused on boss battles. Inspired by cartoons of the 1930s, the visuals and audio are painstakingly created with the same techniques of the era, i.e. traditional hand drawn cel animation, watercolor backgrounds, and original jazz recordings.
Play as Cuphead or Mugman (in single player or local co-op) as you traverse strange worlds, acquire new weapons, learn powerful super moves, and discover hidden secrets while you try to pay your debt back to the devil

Serious question.
Is there danger of getting banned by Microsoft for doing this if I am in the UK using a trick to get a game from the Turkish store?

This has been my concern for some time too, i remember back in the day when MS would ban for pretty much anything, i know folks say they seem to of had a more lenient stance since the one was released but i cant trust they wont change their ways, all those games and service being at risk makes me avoid these deals :disappointed:

Each to their own.
The reality is that MS has shown complete indifference to people buying out of region where they have a valid payment means. They have changed the way the system works more than once to make it more difficult but there are still ways of doing it. If you're able to, MS don't seem to care and will happily take your money.
I suspect they have to be seen to stop it, or at least make it more difficult, to appease publishers who like to be a leader to charge more in some regions than others.
I've bought loads out of region via VPN and buying gift card codes from resellers. I haven't had any problems with MS. My account at commerce.microsoft.com even shows credit balances in multiple different currencies.

Exactly.
And how does Microsoft know you weren't genuinely abroad when you bought the game.
They made the games region free.

I've been using this method for almost 2 years as have a lot of HUKD users. I recommend taking a look at @Silhouettes guide hotukdeals.com/dis…=32

Microsoft will not ban you for buying from a different store. Major Nelson confirmed it years ago.
I've bought games from various other stores since the loophole was discovered and no issues here or anywhere. Plus the bad press/fallout would be the last thing MS needs right now.
If you're still worried buy from the UK store.

Dunno where Major Nelson supposedly said it but I've had it confirmed by Microsoft via web chat in the past.

I’ve had it confirmed via web chat that all accounts using this will get banned next week

If you spent less time trolling other people's deals, you might've found time to post more than 1 of your own in 9 years.
Blurt.

Believe what you want. Doesn't make a bit of difference to me. I've provided the information to the community here whether they want to take it on board is up to them.
Enjoy.

Really? hmmm that would explain a problem i had last week. Did this affect you and how are you getting round this if so?

I can’t get around it. That’s why I can no longer take advantage of deals like this. I give it a try just and it appears it still doesn’t work.
I’m curious to find out how people manage to actually purchase these deals??

So.... Which is the best method to do this?
The guide without a vpn or the guide with a vpn? I have a vpn with PIA but have no router set up, just use it for PC through the application on there.
