Yes, this is a known issue. You have two options:


Option 1.

Zero our balance out by making a purchase. It doesn't have to be the exact amount. It can be something slightly more expensive. You would have to have a debit or credit card associated with your account to do this. When you purchase the item, it would use up the remaining balance in the apple account first and charge the rest to the debit/credit card you have on your account. This will leave you with a zero account balance and you can move forward with the region change.


Option 2.
