10000 MICROSOFT POINTS

    Q:Making sure I understand. I will be emailed the information to use this card. The card will not be mailed. These points will be used just like any points I would buy in the store.

    A: Thanks for your interest. You're semi-correct, yes these points are the same as the ones you buy in the store and can be used to buy the same stuff, however they are redeemed in a different way. You are given access to an xbox live silver account (like a gamertag) which contains 10,000 points. You simply log on with this account using the ID and password that I give you and download 10,000 points worth of stuff. Again this account is only guaranteed to work 7 days after the date I give it to you so I would recommend making sure it works before then by downloading the content you want. I hope this makes sense, if not please ask.

    WTF?

    iv decided not to bother with it..for what games id pick it isnt worth the risk..he has another one on sale for 5000 ms points..Its a bit weird because you cant see it by going his other items for sale.If you type in a id number he sent me you can see the 5k point one..

    even at that.i have most of the games i want..

    Like for 5k points id go for
    scrap metal
    pacman championship
    pb winterbottom
    warlords
    death tanks
    600points left and wouldnt know what to use it on..even at that these are b rated games id like to have but are priced too high for me

    Pick up 1 or 2 movies for the night maybe?

    To be honest, it's too risky to do it. If someone claims back the account, all linked consoles afaik will get permab&. Is 10,000 mp worth losing your xbox?

    I was talking to your man there he want's €30 for 10,000 points i'm trying to get him down to €25

    As far as losing my xbox goes it wont be me using the credit card details just the points (if thats what hes doing)

    Maybe hes just getting free(stolen) points cards somewhere and adding them to new accounts with 1 months live?

    If he takes 25 im going to buy it!

    so then what happens when you upgrade hard drive (transfer kit i presume) or if the hd fails... since its another account you downloaded the stuf with, doesnt that mean you wont be able to get the games again?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 134 ✭✭Sigi

    Its done by console not hard drive.When you download it becomes available for everyone on that console.If you want to move to a different console you have to sign in to the account on the new console and you wont be able to use on the old one.

    Sorry I've been kept away from boards so much that the reported posts from this thread disapeared under a block of other emails and I only got around to them now.


    I am locking this thread for the moment because we really have entered into a very much grey area on the issue of microsoft points and their sale via less then reputable sources.
