    Ok, I had extra money on my MW2 re-order in Gamestop, so I bought 2100 MS points with the money.

    Got home, yay enters the code FAIL.

    Happen to anyone before? What can I do...? It's my first time buying the effing points and they immediately don't work....puts me off buying next one...

    Try again with the right code? :p

    Call MS Support over there in India, they could help you out :)

    Just keep following Soap McTavish slowly. Then snipe snipe snipe. Or phone MS support and if they can't help you, snipe snipe snipe.

    Happened to me 2 years ago. Think it was because I have a US account (stupid hotmail hack!) and the points are region restricted so they wouldn't work. You will have to get on to xbox support. I had to send them an email with a scanned pdf of my points card attached to get it sorted.

    First time I bought points I had to enter the code about 10 times before it worked, don't know why but it worked in the end!

    try enter the code via xbox.com instead of thru the console.
