Yeah I got that email earlier. Just got 4200 there now - works out at €35.93 by Paypal. Damn good deal, and should do me for a few months!

Great deal.

MURDO · 14-01-2011 7:01pm

wheres the 14 month deal. dont see it on the site.

Found it. 12+2. only was €41.99. Still great good value, and had code within an hour of ordering.

+1 from me

Anyone ever bought from here? Looking to buy via moneybookers (have a paypal account but normally takes 3-4 working days for money to move from bank account to Paypal account which is annoyingly long).

used cardscodes to get 2100 points about an hour ago but havent gotten the email yet,checked my spam mail folder a bunch of times and its been taken for as i got a reciept mail from paypal, hmm, will give it another while before i email them and ask, I wanna play Super Meat Boy now though

Saw this on the Bargain Alerts forum but thought people here might miss out.

2100 live points - €13.43
http://www.thehut.com/games/platforms/xbox-360/xbox-360-live-2100-points-card/10021725.html#top

12 month xbox live - €28.43
http://www.thehut.com/games/games-accessories/xbox-live-12-month-gold-membership-card/9995980.html

Delivery is 99p /€1.15 per item but I think it works out cheap as there is a flaw in the exchange rates as the Euro works out cheaper than the Sterling. This might not last long.

EDIT
I got both for €14.58 and €29.58 respectively. I couldn't get both orders done together for some reason.

Brendog · 25-01-2011 4:17pm

Just wondering if when you have xbox live can you only use it by signing into one account.
for instance, on the xbox ther are 3 accounts. Mine and my 2 brothers.

We got xbox live and i redeemed the code and set up an account.
However neither of them are allowed set up an account because they cannot use the same redeem code.

Hey yimrsg, just followed your links but it looks like the prices hav gone back up. Xbox live is now 40.43 and 2100 points are 19.43. Pity because this was a fairly good deal

asharkman · 26-01-2011 1:59pm

just checked it there and seems to be gone.
Didn't see it on the bargain alerts forum.
Dag nabit.
My xbox subscription is running out.
Anyone recommend a good place to get the 12 month sub cheap?

Moiph · 26-01-2011 3:58pm

If I buy it from Amazon is there a risk the code won't work here? Like it might only work for UK accounts?

.E_C_K_S. · 26-01-2011 6:52pm

Don't know has this been asked lads but can I get points on any site using a laser card?

readyletsgo · 26-01-2011 8:41pm

Hmm, anyone recommend where to get my MS points cheap online? Where should I look? Seems like a lot of scam sites when I do a search

Drakar · 27-01-2011 3:52pm

Amazon.co.uk stuff will work over here.

Also Amazon points seem to be cheapest right now (2100 for £15 - get 2 for free p&p)

They cancelled the orders anyway (mine at least) so you didn't miss out.
On the look out for points again before First Strike drops!

Seems like a good deal. When is Black Ops maps available?

Gamesnash.ie: Pat · 29-01-2011 3:41pm

They're available from Feb 1st on Xbox exclusively - dates not yet confirmed for PS3 and PC but likely to be 1st March.

DesertMoon · 29-01-2011 3:45pm

Cheers - can code be emailed? Is it instant?

For speedier dispatch the order code can be emailed upon request - please mention this in your order comments if required.

Gamesnash.ie: Pat · 29-01-2011 4:25pm

It wouldn't be completely instant.

Usual security checks would need to be passed before the order is cleared for shipping.

Basically what will happen is that instead of posting the packet out, it will be opened, card scratched for you and the code emailed to you.

If ordered during a normal working day and assuming everything is ok security wise you'd have your code within a couple of hours.

keane2097 · 02-02-2011 3:50pm

Any Gamesnash discount coupons floating around?

joe123 · 06-02-2011 8:42pm

Hey do all these sites require you to create a pay pal account?

Live codes used to use Google Checkout not sure if they still do after the site overhaul.

Argos have 12 months xbox live with 800 Microsoft points for €45.

http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/9325030/c_1/1|category_root|Video%2Bgames|14419738/c_2/3|19780877|Xbox%2B360|14419847/c_3/4|cat_14419847|Xbox%2B360%2Baccessories|14419856.htm

I checked their instore catalogue and I couldn't see it. But it's code (932/5030) came up in the stock checker. Their other 12 month xbox live subscription is €50 without the 800 points.

Drakar · 03-03-2011 1:45pm

I think I saw it in hmv (dundrum) yesterday for €35 without the 800 points, which seems better if we say 100pts ~= €1

dunworth1 · 14-03-2011 10:54pm

came across these guys they have 2100 points for £16 and email it within ten minutes
