I'm having an issue with buying the 360 Games with Gold titles on my Xbox One. Whenever I attempt to purchase one (on the Xbox) I'm told I'm unable to make this purchase at Xbox.com, please attempt this purchase on the Xbox.
The same message appears when trying on the website. I have no difficultly with downloading the free Xbox One titles, only the 360 backwards compatible ones.

For the first issue, if you have only an XBOX One, you can not directly download the backward-compatible XBOX 360 games that are offered through the Games with Gold program. Please see the official response on the subject below (FAQ found here):
For example, today the Assassin's Creed III (360 title) was available to download. I went to the Xbox website, navigated to the games with gold section, "purchased" and downloaded the free game. Went to my XBOX One and it was hanging out in my "ready to be installed" list. I uploaded a picture of the Games with Gold "purchase" that has confirmation that the process works as described in the FAQ.
For the second issue, if you can't download it from the website, you should talk to tech support because that's more of support issue. I doubt this is a region issue because you mentioned you were able to download other X1 titles with Games with Gold.
