So a couple of years ago, i set up an xbox live account just to see what's going on. Never had an xbox, never used xbox live, never bought or played anything.
So now, Windows Phone marketplace has expanded to my country (Croatia). I have a hotmail address that i have been using for years, my main email address. It's name.lastname, i have all my accounts, services, photos, docs and other data there. Up uuntil now, i have been using a US registered hotmail liveID on my phone just to be able to access free marketplace. And now i want to use my real, croatia registered hotmail, with all my files.
BUT! Since i, years ago linked this dum xbox live account to that croatian hotmail, now i am unable to add payment options, since marketoplace recognizes me as from US.
Is there any way i can completely unlink the xbox live US account, or even delete it completely, and than use this hotmail.address again on my phone so that i am able to buy apps/games?
