I think it's a bug that needs to be fixed ASAP. I cannot change it on iphone, only way to change it is in iTunes.

Same problem here, when I'm changing the country, I need to change my Apple ID password as well, then when I'm changing the country it ask for payment information which current info is not accepted. But I don't have credit card in that country.


now I'm stuck with the updates in that country, without changing the country you cannot update the apps.

I just got caught with this same issue, I was seeing if a film was available on iTunes and it took me to the US store. I managed to turn it back to the UK store by searching in safari for UK specific item (a terrible soap) and when it opened the link it gave me the option to change store. I am not sure if this is a bug or something done deliberately to stop users from changing stores and getting content not available in their country.
