Xbox Live subs / MS points

[calibrax]

I'm not sure if this is allowed, but I'd like to recommend a website for Xbox Live subscriptions and points. Note that I'm not affiliated in any way with the site - I just found them to provide a cheap and efficient service and thought I'd share with my fellow PHers...

I've used them quite a few times in the past to buy MS points, and yesterday I renewed my Xbox Live Gold for 13 months. The prices are among the lowest I've been able to find (the 12+1 month sub is £28.85)

http://www.xboxliveuk76.com/

You pay via PayPal and within 8 hours (and usually within 1 hour) you get an email containing a scan of a card containing the code to redeem (like the one I received yesterday, below - note, I have smudged out the numbers for security reasons)



Highly recommended.

I take it you haven't used the card yet then if you've obscured the code?

I'm sure you know those cards become worthless as soon as you enter the code.

Used buygamepointsnow.com, a few times, excellent service, cheaper than getting them from MS direct, and received the email with all my details in a matter of minutes.

I have used it, but my existing sub didn't run out yesterday, it runs out on Dec 6th so the renewal begins then... so, although I've put the code in, I didn't want to take any chances publishing it just in case. Only took me a few seconds to smudge it in Paintshop Pro.

You can check in your account details when your subscription runs out, it should be the 6th of December 2010 now.

I'm trying to buy one of their 12 month subscriptions. I'm on the page where it says that I have to select payment and shipping methods, but there doesn't seem to be anywhere to click. If I click on select payment and shipping it just refreshes the page.

Any ideas?

Ah yes, those buttons were microscopic on my Opera browser.

In Gamestation they're currently doing MW2 + 13 months Live Gold for £39.99!

I'm going to do that so I can get another year and MW2, looks like a steal.

Is that nationwide? A mate of mine is wanting both so it would suit him down to the ground.

THAT IS WRONG

They are selling a call of duty BRANDED xbox live code. NOT THE GAME

This is play.com doing the same bloody thing

Asshole advertising if you ask me.

Just phoned my local and he said its the game with 13 months, unless I heard him wrong. I'm confused now!

Yep, it's 6th January 2011 (remember it's a 12+1 month subscription )

Go buy one and let me know

Loads of people thought the same on avforums

That is all

Thanks mate, phoned back again and I had misheard him its just a MW2 branded 13 month subscription. Thought it was a bit too good!

[Xenocide]

[nakedninja]

Crikey mate, thanks for letting me know, I'll pass the message on to my brother who was thinking of doing the deal, I hope he hasn't!

[Polarbert]

I ordered from this chap as well. Still waiting for my code but its been nowhere near 8 hours yet.

So, anyone still using this guy (the link in the OP.)? I need to renew my subscription soon!

Also, to save me making a new thread, i have a question.

My Xbox Live GT has a debit card put on there, which i will be ringing Xbox Customer Support about soon to get removed. Will i still be able to buy a code from the guy in the OP and input that code to get a fresh 12 month subscription? The reason i ask is because the debit card i originally used has no cash in it now, and i don't want to fuss putting some money in there. If XBL tries to take the money out to renew my subscription, and it fails because of no funds, i will then get charged by my bank for fee's.
