If you're like me, you'll have made use of prepaid cards over the years to avoid giving Microsoft the full forty quid they want for 12 months Xbox Live Gold access.
Now, I know eBay isn't a shop, but bear with me. Go over there and do a search for Xbox Live 12 + 1. Some listings are selling cheap 12 + 1 cards on Buy It Now, they have almost a thousand at £25.99 alone, so I assume they fell off the back of a lorry.

I suggest you take a look at this guy, he's doing the majority of them. And some at a quid more, for some reason but we'll ignore those.

Regardless of what it says, he actually emails the code to you, and having thought "13 months of Xbox Live for £25.99? Deal!" and bought one myself last night I can confirm it works. He does ask that you don't mention the email aspect in feedback though, so I'd leave giving any at all for a few days.

Happy gaming!

It worked on an existing accout? Or was it a new gamertag?

I got a 12+1 code a few months back to renew my existing sub and it worked a treat, was £23.59 at the time as well, just make sure you buy from a reputable seller.

Oh yeah, you gotta be careful with these things. Oh, and it worked on my exisiting tag.

i got one!

nice, iv been looking for some cheap xboxlive time. il have to check this out. cheers exu

Okay, a friend on another forum has brought to my attention this veritable treasure trove: http://www.jasper1675.com/

Now, I do not support buying from independant sellers at all, however supposedly he bought one off here and it worked fine. They email the code.

Again, I have not done this myself and cannot claim the legitimacy, so you do so at your own risk.

If so, this could be worth posting on the other forums. Unless they already know about it, I dunno.

cheers man, took advantage of this

So that Jasper site is kosher?

Sorry, i should have been more specific. I used the OP's ebay link, and got my code that evening. Works a charm.
