    showing dollars for me for some reason. Might be the proxy in work. I'll try it again when I get home and see if it's any better.

    Just another quick question.When I try to order the code it says it may not work if u have less than a month left on your sub.
    Surely it just adds to your existing subscription time no??

    This was explained to me before, I can't remember what the actual reason was, but it was more "advice" than a warning. They advise you to redeem code after your current subscription has expired, rather than to try and add it on top of it.

    I'm assuming you could. Once the credit is in your account you should be able to use it on anything. Haven't tried that though.

    Tried buying from cdkeys but kept getting errors when paying (tried 2 different cards and paypal). Tried both work PC and home. Contacted them and they told me its because I am using a proxy or VPN which I am not.

    I was getting the same yesterday, tried this morning and it went through ok. It didn't apply the discount code ... not too worried about that though.

    Yeah that's why I was asking. I think GBx thought he meant you could buy gift cards for cdkeys so he was planning on getting another few euro off  but I'm pretty sure it was Xbox gift cards for 4euro

    Any know if 1 month membership cards still work? And where is the best place to get them? XBL about to run out tomorrow and only have 8.90 in my debit account before next paycheck :o Don't want to deal with MS directly as I had a whole fiasco with them overcharging me and not letting me cancel my sub very recently, so want to use third party sites. Cheers!

    Try CD keys. The 12 month is €27.

    Has anyone used HMVgamecredit.com?
    €5 is 6.50
    €10 is 12.50
    €20 is 23.50
    €25 is 30.00

    Are they not fond of selling the €25.00?

    Yeah I used them before to buy xbox credit using phone credit I had no use for. (vodafone offer, top up by 20 and they take 10 for the offer leaving you with 10 to use however)

    You cannot use it to buy the EA Access, I added €25 from CDkEys, when I go to pay, only option is credit card, the €25 is greyed out.

    Even that on the Subscription page with the prices they have the option to Redeem Code, microsoft say nothing they can do as is EA will see what EA say.
