Getting microsoft points

the lil man

Hi, is there a cheaper way on gettin microsoft points because they are quite expensive??

I get mine here http://live-codes.com/

if you dont have a credit card like myself, i like to use http://www.gamesbite.com/

They had a special offer before on 2100 microsoft points which was pretty much the same price as most other sites except you can pay via paypal.

Went for Live Codes rather than Games Bite purely because it was about a euro cheaper. Haha. Been about 10mins now and no sign of the code. Wondering if they only operate during business hours...

nar should be instant with my past experiences... you emailed them and checked your junk mail folder?

Took 3 hours to come through in the end, from getting the receipt email to getting the code.

In between I had the idea that it might have been blocked by my CC company as they have done that on occasion. They see a transaction being made in the middle of the night to a website that they don't know and block it. Happened before when using Komplett or Elara. Wasn't them though.

All good now anyway. Wanted to get the points in advance of Shadow Complex coming out. Sure I might buy a few more things in the mean time.

I read this forum and decided I'd try out the Livecodes site... I've been waiting 24 hours and still no codes. In all fairness, the support has been pretty decent... but I was under the impression that I'd have my microsoft points by now.
Has anyone ever had this kinda trouble with them before?

Looking into it more, the problem seems to be with Google Checkout.. I've never used them before, so I've no idea how reliable they are.

Nope, always instant for me, did your payment clear?

noodlesmcfilthy

Doesn't even appear to be getting that far... I've double checked by GoogleCheckout account, everything seems to be alright.

As I say, Livecodes customersupport has been pretty helpful so far... even goin as far as to giving me a small discount, as a gesture, on my purchase.

So i've no idea what the hold up is...

tommylaws

Your order isnt reviewing is it? When i first ordered i got a message from them saying my order was under review... but my order was sent about an hour later. But ever since its been instant.

noodlesmcfilthy

Yeah the review seems to be the problem... but it's literally been waiting for review since this time yesterday.
All I can do is wait really.. if it takes much longer I'll cancel and try that gamesbite site.

noodlesmcfilthy

Well after numerous emails back and forth from Livecodes (those guys have really great customer support) it appears that GoogleCheckout is squarely to blame and I was advised by email to cancel the order... and to try again when I've sorted it out with Googlecheckout, but they haven't replied to my email.

I then went to Gamesbite and ordered the MSpoints for a couple of euro more, hoping that it would all happen a bit faster.. that was an 2 hours a go and I've still not recieved a code.

I appear to be having some pretty poor luck buying MSpoints online...
Does anyone know if Gamesbite only functions during working hours or something?

tommylaws

Ive just ordered from them again and code came within a few seconds.

I've been through a few different 'companies' trying to get gaming points and this is by far the best, always delivered right away. Pay with google checkout

www.zavvi.co.uk are excellent. Actually most online stores that are based in the UK are pretty cheap!
