Thank you for your reply
I am indeed physically located in Belgium; but until yesterday, I could buy packs by setting the region to France without any problems. That's how I bought heirlooms in the past.
Have the devs changed that in the last patch ? (based on physical location rather than store region). or is it just a bug?
If they have changed it, How am I supposed to buy them? Can I use a VPN to bypass the issue or do I risk getting banned?
I would like to know because the only reason I bought apex coins was to buy heirlooms at a lower price. (without packs, it would cost me over 300 euros)
Thank you

I'm afraid that I'm not going to provide any help or advice on how to break Belgian law. We have a statement here (That's focused on FIFA points but it's appropriate to things like buying Apex packs as well):

Thank you. Just one last question
Are VPNs tolerated in Apex or would I get banned from the game?
