Microsoft Redeem
I was trying to redeem my Microsoft code and it kept making me confirm, so I searched YouTube and noticed that they did not have "&form=dash_1&rbc=1&adlt=strict" in their URL. What does this mean? More on learn.microsoft.com

How to redeem code - Microsoft Q&A
October 2, 2025 - The offer you purchased is most likely not a genuine Microsoft retail license. Office Professional Plus is only distributed to organizations through volume licensing, so when it’s sold on third-party sites like Groupon, the keys are often unauthorized and can end up not working at all. The safest way forward is to request a refund from Groupon and avoid trying to install from that code, since it won’t link to your Microsoft account and could stop working unexpectedly.

r/xboxone on Reddit: How to redeem code in a different region? (really pissed off at Microsoft)
March 13, 2016 -

So I bought Xbox One in Qatar with Gears of war redeem code. In my Xbox, location is set to USA (Qatar is not available) and language is set to English (US). I am trying to redeem code but it says:

You can’t acquire this item in your currently selected language. Change your language region in Settings, or go to microsoft.com//redeem

What the hell is this? Then I changed location to "UAE" and language location to "UAE (English)" but same issue.

How am I supposed to know what setting to use?

Does the same happened with PS4? I am a big Microsoft advocate (still using 2 years old Microsoft Lumia upgraded to Windows 10) BUT now I am really thinking of not not buying anything from them.

How do I resolve this issue?
