Also anyone with a US account in the UK, The US accounts can access the service, I downloading a few of the clips and stuff, and once saved they are viewable from my UK account. You'll need to use the redeemable codes in order to add points to a US account.

Obviously this is in MS's hands, so don't blame me, if you add 10,000 points and they block access.
