CAGiversary!
Still can't believe this happened. Friday night, I tried to log into Xbox live, and it told me that my account was suspended because it could not charge my credit card. I was pissed off cuz I just recently added a one month Xbox live membership card and it was still good. Why on earth did they think I owed them money???
I got on the horn with the tech support. They claimed that my account was set to autorenew. My CC on file had expired and Live gave me me free service while trying to charge me for the past month. After so many failed tries, it suspended my account.
The whole thing is just fishy. I find it hard to believe that M$ would give you free service without receiving a valid payment first. Their claim that I owed them for a 3 month renew totally overwrites the fact that I renewed with my one month card.
I had a 12 month card that I just purchased and tried to redeem the code. It still would not activate my account! The tech support said my ONLY option was to pay them $22 bucks for Live service that ends in July. Then I can add my 12 month.
At the very least, I will NEVER pay for Live service through the console. I blame Xbox completely for the hassle.
