    It was in block capitals.. unless they expect it in braille alongside it, it couldn't get much clearer!

    should it not have been small letters???

    I'm sure they would have accepted small letters but just to make it clearer, I tend to use block capitals.

    Yeah I definitely used capital letters also to make it clear. Should make no difference at all.

    I used lower case letters and received mine the other day
    Sent the form around the 7th December

    Anyone still waiting? Phoned XBOX Support about it today and said there's nothing they could do (wondeful! :rolleyes:).

    And just to pester XBOXWINS@microsoft.com daily until I get a response.

    Is this definitely running until the end of January? If so can someone post a link for the form you need to send cos I can't find it.

    If anyone is still waiting...

    I just got my free games today, and the form was posted on the 14th, which was the original deadline day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,227 ✭✭✭Scruff


    If this is still running then is there anyone who bought a 360 within the offer period still free to join up for this??

    Cheers hanton12.. have e-mailed that e-mail address but i'd imagine it's automated.

    The xboxwins@microsoft.com are ignoring my e-mail anyways.

    Given up hope of getting the games to be honest! :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 324 ✭✭johnnyflav


    I got mine today, I sent in my form after the deadline too.

    I thought it was a lost cause, then M$ go and redeem themselves:D, so I guess there's still hope

    My e-mails are getting through but both myself and my mate have sent an e-mail to it every day since the 14th and have gotten no response!

    Am very annoyed at it all to be honest! :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,296 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Ha.. sent the 3 e-mail addresses noted in this thread one big "F*CK OFF" e-mail today at 4.48PM telling them I want a response immediately or the next e-mail will be going to the Consumer Affairs Centre in Dublin.

    Got a phone call from someone an hour and a half later apologizing for not responding sooner but the XBOXWINS address has an enormous backlog of requests, and that he's not directly responsible for assigning the games. But thatI'll be liasing with the people that are and he ensures I'll have my games before the end of the week and if not, to e-mail him again.

    Definitely not a Microsoft worker - was actually a Senior Producer at GoodTechnology (http://www.wearegt.com/home.html).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 488 ✭✭Brianb8802


    Any news on this, did you get your codes?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,296 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Yeah, got them a day or two after this post.

    My e-mail complaining obviously made the rounds in Microsoft as I've had about 5 e-mails / phone calls from various agents on customer support saying there's nothing they can do and yada yada yada.

    Seriously unimpressed with XBOX support. It was their advertising company who sorted it for me in the end. I mean for fecks sake!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,175 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    I cant through that email address at all, I keep getting an autoreply saying its failed. I called customer care about 5 times and they tell me to go back to customer support via xbox.com. Both are telling to me to go back to one another

    They are sending me on a wild goose chase. I don't know what to do anymore :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,175 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    I got my games yesterday, huzzah
