Seriously? Do you think shops are making no money on them? To put it simply usually as a general rule retail will double the price that they get it for. Not always, and obviously I have no idea what they are getting them for in this case.

Microsoft are the one company that will always charge the full retail, because they can't be seen to be under cutting retail shops after all they are supplying them with the codes and suggesting a price of €60.

Everyone else can look at what they are getting them for and charge whatever they want.

Ahhh never mind bit of a blonde moment there for me lol i get yeah now my bad lol

Xbox Live Gold 12 + 1 month for £24.99 from the below. Used them last week and got the code emailed to me about 10 minutes later. Excellent service and no problems:

Cheers for that, my gold ran out over the weekend.

Wanna get a few games of Blops 2 in with a mate of mine and that's a fairly decent price.

I need to get 2 x 12 months asap.

Where is fast and safe to use?

I use Simply CD Keys.

13 months for £24.99. They email the code almost straight away.

Great, thanks for that. That will do nicely.

Is it normal for Simplecdkeys to be asking for a scan of my passport or driving licence.

Yes some of them do ask at random for details like that to verify you are who you said you are, just hide personal details, if you don't like sending it use another website but you might be asked for it too.

I just paid via PayPal and had the code emailed to me in 2 minutes. I didn't have to do any of that.

I don't like doing anything like that, the last time it happened me with cheapxboxlive codes I emailed back & said I wouldn't be giving ANY personal info out & that's why I use Paypal....and if they'd an issue with that to either refund me or I'll take it up with paypal. The code arrived a few mins later :rolleyes:

Disgusting practice imo. (Not you - Asking for Passport, Driving licence etc..)

I'm not sure what the general feedback is with 'simplycdkeys', I'd hoped to have a good experience with them.
Alas I tried using them on tuesday (2nd). They promptly took my payment, and that's all I've had from them since. Their support line doesn't answer after 5pm, and I'm left with a -32 euro (£24.99) payment in my paypal account.

According to paypal, the payment can't be disputed until the payment is rejected from the merchant. Which they don't appear to be too bothered with. Creditcard company says the payment is sitting in limbo for the next 7 days, only after that will they reject the payment if it's not paid.

Be careful out there. I'm going to give cdkeys a try and hope they fair better. (fingerscrossed)

I've never used them so I can't comment about them.

I did use cdkeys.com last year and they worked a treat for me. I never heard of simplycdkeys.com

Long story short, I'm looking to buy xbox live, but currently only have about a 5er on my debit card Even a 7 day trial or even 2 days would be fine, to hold me over. I bought a 7 day trial for 2 euro earlier off some CSJ Key website that seemed legit but said the code was already used after I tried :eek: Or maybe the trials just don't work on current accounts that already had gold on them?

Anyone know any good and reputable places?

Does 4200 points still redeem for 50+ euro?

Are these actually safe? Need to purchase a new 12 month, but might just stump up for one from Microsoft for €59.99

I've used them 5 or 6 times now - no issues. They are cheaper. You should save about 20 euros.

Hey guys, just looking to buy some Microsoft points for the Xbox One. Where is the cheapest place these days?

EDIT: Think Cdkeys is working out the best. Quick question, would a gift card in pounds work on an Irish account?

super_furry

Anyone know if the Titanfall Season pass can be got for any cheaper than on the Xbox store?

eddie28

I just got stiffed by G2a.com - I chose not to use the 'G2Ashield' (thinking it was akin to Gamestop's 'insurance' bullshít) and surprise surprise one of the codes I received did not work and support won't entertain it. This is the last time I will be dealing with them!
