    I went into town today and bought 1200 points to get myself the new Escalation map pack, so when i got home today i put the points in no problem, then went to download the pack only to be greeted with not being available in my area :mad: any body else having the same issues?? or does anyone know if theres something i can do?

    Thanks in advance

    Your account region has to match where you live. So, you need to get an Irish account, or get an account for wherever you live now

    Don't see how it could have any effect on it. All I know is that the content is region-locked

    Irish points + Irish account + living in Ireland, or no maps

    Sorry, can't help you any further :o

    Tons of info here. http://forums.xbox.com/35677497/ShowPost.aspx Have you tried following the link on the dashboard? Is there a link in the MP of the game when you start B/Ops?

    Would you be on a Child account by any chance? .. Just ideas to try.

Im not sure but ive got them now :D

    I have the same problem. Just bought the codes there. I just got my xbox replaced so maybe that has something to do with it?? Like I was able to download the First Strike pack no problem on my old console. I still have the same account. Anyone any ideas???:confused:
