I got mine at 12 am last night, only noticed it now. Ordered at 11:30 pm so took about 30 mins.

Used a fake american address but I used my real phone number. Will be ordering a few more




It doesn't matter if they match, not in my experience anyway. I used a fake american address on the MSN form and my real phone number. On the PayPal site I just left it on the default address (which is my real Irish address). Got the code fine


Edit: Just ordered 2 more

Ok thanks, doe they email you the code or does it get added to the Xbox live account used to buy it?

jamescd

No they e-mail you with the code and you then redeem that code on your account

Never the less. Managed to pick up 10,800 points for 36 Euro.

Lucky enough

TheGunns

used CC instead of paypal and picked up 4 lots. Paypal ones still aren't coming through even though payment says completed

I've heard that, must be over

The two subsequent orders I made have been cancelled too. But they only refunded me for one, not both. Have opened a dispute, feckers :rolleyes:

Never hit the codes I ordered sat. Funds never left my bank account. Paid through PayPal linked to card.

TheGunns

Yup it's gone. Got some codes didn't get other, just filed a claim for a refund

CheapXboxLiveCodes refuses to accept my BoI debit card. Is there any other reputable site out there? My Gold sub runs out soon & I want BF3 premium

Might be an offer on the dashboard?

www.cdkeys.com are the cheapest...I got 13month sub for 31 Euro.. Thier ms points are also very cheap.

It says you receive the codes in 5 minutes but it took 45 minutes.

Use Money instead of Points on Xbox

The end of MS Points !!

"Transactions on Xbox will soon take place using your local currency instead of Microsoft Points".

But your existing points are still good, "please continue to purchase and redeem Microsoft Points cards and codes – we’ll accept them until further notice".

"For more information on the transition and what to expect, please visit http://www.xbox.com/pointsfaq".

Points cards still redeem at more than they cost so fro example a 4200 card bough for €36 redeems at just over €50 in local currency..... that said I'm in the beta so they may change it still but dlc / a game that now costs 1200 points costs €14.79 in real money under this system :mad: going on what has been said so far currency cards akin to PSN €20 credit seem to be a ways off given the amount of points cards in circulation so we'll be buying points cards for a while yet even after this system goes live for all.

Just to add points converted to currency under this change over have a 12 month expiry date

Fastxboxlive.com currently have 12 month subs for £25.99. I have purchased from them a few times and had no issues with them. I have also known people to head too facebook to complain they have not received their code only too apologise after as email was in junk folder.

Have they changed over to cash already? Planned on buying points tomorrow, will they still work?
