[quote name='EarthBoundX5']It is, but I read in the main thread and can confirm that the vouchers no longer work on Point Cards or Subscriptions...no matter what. The guy at the store really tried to help, he even let me see what he was trying to do in order to get around the prevention of using the vouchers (at managers approval of course).
Basically he said it was because people were abusing the vouchers and points/xbox live and then Microsoft Store corporate put a stop to it, then subsequently in the interim time points/subscriptions bought with a voucher were not getting activated properly at the register and pissing people off as they eventually put a complete stop to it all.
Long story short, don't even bother getting points or months, it wont work. My suggestion, get some extra rechargeable battery packs, the new xbox remote, or put it down towards a console preorder, but then apply that value to an actual preorder you want at time of purchase (as I was explained that works with their preorder system).[/QUOTE]
I just went in today, here is what happened to me (Background, I went in on Sunday with gf, each did challenge, tried to get points cards, no dice from the sales person):
Took the challenge again today, so I had 3 vouchers to use. Walked around for awhile, the person who gave me the voucher today also told me that you could not use them on subscription cards and etc. Asked a worker with the checkout tablet thing about preordering AC3 since they didn't have the preorder box on the shelf. They looked it up on the tablet, said I indeed can preorder it there (including the 1600pt card and $10 giftcard preorder promo). I asked if I could use the voucher on the preorder, and he didn't know, so I asked nicely to try, and it worked.
I then asked if I could add a points card on top of the preorder, since I was told that you couldn't use it on points alone. Again, he tried, and it worked. $10 preorder and points card for $5 total.
From there, I asked if that same idea of buying something besides the points card in the same transaction would let it work, and he said it looked like it. Ended up having two other transactions, one being a points card + eneloop batteries for $6.xx total and a controller I bought heat of the moment that I might return (buyer's remorse, haha).
So it really comes down to being nice and trying to find someone who might not be completely against using the vouchers for cards. All the codes redeemed without a problem on LIVE, so hopefully at least a couple more people can benefit from this deal before it expires soon. Good luck!
