    Alright folks I have had enough of Live, we'll truth is I signed up for 1 month nut they automatically renew the membership each month. I would have signed up for 12 months but just had a loan of GTA4 so went online to play it. I reckon I will have to call microsoft and cancel this to start a new 6 or 12 month subscription. Has anyone had this problem or contacted Xbox Live Support? I cant seem to find any phone numbers?

    From a mobile its: +353 12420758
    From a landline its: 1 800 509 186

    Had same problem, but had to cancel the credit card for other reasons. Then, they banned my Gamertag when the direct debit stopped and had to start from scratch.

    Rang the number and its sorted - the bloke said that if you want to cancel you have to phone otherwise it renews automatically! Bit of a scam if u ask me. Seen a few threads on this where you can get the cards for it a bit cheaper so reckon i'll be goin for that next time.

    Not really a scam, considering most of us don't read the smallprint when agreeing to things on the 'net. Its there somewhere.

    It's still a scam even if it's legal.

    Exactly. Then you should put it where people will actually read it rather than hiding it where people won't look.

    Its fairly important, they should have flashing lights and bells around it. I know I wouldn't have signed up for the 1 month sub with my credit card if i knew it was going to be billed after that.

    I only wanted it for one month so I paid for one month.

    I agree it is a bit of a scam, paying with credit card should be the cheapest way to subscribe as its money straight to MS and not to a middleman first.

    I think its ridiculous that 360 players even have to pay for live considering that PS3 players don't.

    The best way to subscribe is by getting the card off the internet sellers, usually instant delivery and up to €30 cheaper then the shops
