I want to change the default page after signing out from Outlook.com

In August 2013 I asked a question on this community about how to change the default page after signing out of Outlook.com.  Since opening my email address in July, every time when I sign out it goes to MSN.co.uk - a page I do not want.  I want this go to MSN.co.nz, for my country.  I have looked for settings to change this - but nothing is available on the outlook.com settings. And yes - before anyone asks me - my details all CLEARLY state New Zealand as my country on my profile. I have checked this multiple upon multiple times.

I have asked for solutions but no luck so far. In replies from the Microsoft Community, various suggestions have been provided and webpages to contact - which I have done.  But those websites either tell me to check my country details (doh!...as if I am that stupid), don't reply or send me to other webpage - which simply repeats the previous responses.

We can land space vehicles on Mars, do complex brain surgery, find the Higgs Boson, see distant stars and planets...yet no one can provide a simple solution to this??  I may not be a computer genius, but seriously, come on...solving this can't really be this hard.

Can anyone shed some specific and direct solutions to this?

    I have had the problem with the sign out page going to MSM USA, after many messages and contacts on the forum page regarding this issue on September 6 everything went back to normal, but todayI was checking my mail on sign out it went to my Melbourne Nine MSM home page. Then I checked again later and its now going to USA. I have two accounts and they are both going to MSN USA, what is going on???

    Hi JR_N.

    I have 2 email accounts with outllok.com

    They had worked for years then mid july along with many other users they started going back to MSN USA, then around early September they both seemed to go back to my Nine MSM page in Melbourne/Australia. Many other people in the forum also seemed to be going to their correct page.

    I didn't do anything it just happend, now this morning they were working as usual, I logged out then later went back but this time when I logged out I am NOW back in the USA!!!!!! I don't want to see this page, and I'm not sure why I need to give all those details with URL and aslo install Fiddler trace on my computer.

    Surely the Techs can sort this out??????

    Hi JR_N,

    I have just checked my accounts, it appears some work may have been being done this morning.

    I logged in and out of both of my accounts and I'm now being redirected to a new MSN page which is my home city? So it's possible that these changes were being made this morning when I was having issues.

    It's no longer nine msn, as I said it's MSM but with my home city with weather, news and more.

    It's a whole new look and I like it.

    Hopefully now this issue will be over with. :)
