Same thing happened to me last year. If you would've called Microsoft, they would've fixed it up for you without having to buy another 12 months with a new debit card.

12 months for $46.40

I don't know if this deserves a thread of its own or if this is a true "deal," but Coinstar has just added Xbox to its list of partners. You can get both points and subscriptions.

Good to know.

Any year deals out?

There was a deal posted yesterday. 3 posts above yours.

Likewise. I did the live chat route though and if you just ask nicely to make an exception they will unlock your account without having to purchase the sub.

my live is about to expire so its now time to find some deals

Good or bad?

I feel like I heard about this about a year ago...

Yeah, but... it's finally happening?

The only reason I like the points system is because of exploitable contests where I can get them for free. I personally would prefer to just pay directly through paypal rather than using paypal to purchase points and then using those points to buy what I want. It's gets rid the annoying problem of having useless amounts of points leftover. Ideally they should have both as an option.

I like Bing points, let's talk about it.

1yr live for $35, only have a couple hrs: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/...d.php?t=329873

Jatan's buy/ebay deal is sold out.

What's with the flood of 14 day trial codes on eBay? There must be some promotion out there giving them away, but I bought 2 for $1.09/ea.

They probably expire at the end of Nov or December and don't stack.

I believe you can use the code SQRLUVIO at Amazon to get $2 off 400 MS Points codes right now, making them $3 instead of $5.

Just tried this on http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-LIVE-Micr.../dp/B008J35KS2 and it didn't work. Got a "This code is not valid" error.

That sucks. It was working just a couple of hours ago, but looks like it's dead now.

I need more points. Deal needed. Not that questionable one. Looking for legit deals. Come on buy.com/ebay!
