Guess it's not ending on 6/30/2011 but can't find anything about extending it or a new end date. I'm glad it's continuing though. I have been rewarded 1,200 points in 7 months so far. Not including the points from the beta. A lot better than the nothing we got before.

I have 740 points in my account right now....

too bad since next weeks deals are Grand theft auto 4 related.

Lost and Damned at 400 points, and TBOGT at 800

Grand theft auto San Andreas will also be at 800 points.

Tried to view stats from the Xbox Rewards Newsletter email I got but got like a server error. Anyone else's work or is it on their end I'm guessing.

I was able to access the stats on my account just now.

Just mainly usage stats. Nothing too exciting.

Is this still the email I am suppose to use when trying to find out about a reward I haven't received? I still haven't received the points for buying the Halo map pack months ago, want to make sure I have the correct email.

Don't you only receive the points after you have accumulated more than 100 pending points?

I was sort of pissed when I found out that the the XBL points accumulated through the rewards program expires.

That doesn't really matter since my account has no indication that I even took part in the offer (not to mention receiving the points for the offer would put me over 100 points). People in this thread have said they received their 400 points for the Halo map pack, I still haven't and there isn't anything listed in my pending rewards that says I will even receive them.

Has anyone done this month's survey. I do it and there's no sumbit button so i won't get credit for it. im stuck at 80 points and need that 100 badly.

Just want to warn people that this must be the most crappily run program ever done by a major business. You sign up and then wait for several days for them to "set up" your account (amazingly every other web site in the world can do it in a few seconds), then they send you an email saying your account is ready ... and of course it's not. Maybe a week later you can finally log in.

Then you earn some points, except they don't get get posted to your account for months. The official timeframe is 8-10 weeks after the promotion ends, so if it's a month long deal then you are already waiting 3 months. Except there are even more delays. Just look in their forums, post after post, hundreds of them and every one is the same .... points never got credited.

I'm not saying it's a scam, most people do eventually get their points , but what a ing mess. Free is free, but this program really pushes the limits.

I didn't have a problem with the beta. I haven't had a problem with the current program. Once it was confirmed that points on renewals don't appear on your account until the renewal starts, it's been smooth sailing. I get my points, I use my points, I earn more.

I like it.

Safe to say that you weren't involved in the PS Rewards Beta.

Not really the same; that was a worthless program but it never seemed badly run. I guess people got all upset because they canned it and went back to the drawing board, but at least they realized they had a problem. XBL Rewards is the opposite; the program itself is decent, but the web site seems to be administered by a bunch of monkeys who have time travelled here from the 1970s.

Rewards for August.

20 - survey
100 - 1st marketplace purchase
160 - buy 1600 worth of add-ons in August and get 160 points back
100 - netflix

Looks like I'll get the Arrival from Mass Effect (deal of the week) to count towards the 1600 points. I'll reach the 1600 points on DLC though as I only get DLC when it is at least half off.

Logged in today and found some weird stuff in my account. Had 890 points yesterday, checked and I have 1990 now. Apparently they credited the 220 MSP rewards I had earned for this month to my account 5 times. My girlfriend had her 100 points added 4 times. Just thought I'd give anyone else who was confused about this a heads up.

Same here. My account has jumped from 10 to 1570 just this morning...

I got a MS point boost as well. I checked xbox.com and there are four deposits of 260 points. I hope we get to keep them.

I didnt get a point glitch :(
