@AmiePSO2 This response gave me a genuine belly laugh, but what the heck, I'll see if my friends can use it. thanks!

Just started playing with 2 friends in the UK, and due to region restrictions applied by Microsoft, they can play but not purchase ANYTHING ingame that uses IRL currency. We all want to try premium once the lag bugs get worked out, but unless I can gift them the Premium option, they're out of luck. Ideas? suggestions?
