    sure did, ye see i didnt actually get the stimulus package i went and bought 2100 points which is the same effect or that really. just noticed there on the xbox site they are saying

    'Users may experience difficulties with the following services:
    Using prepaid cards or codes for downloadable items or Xbox LIVE subscriptions'

    pretty annoying considering. . . .

    so it turns out when i set up my live account i wasn't able to change the country from the united states to ireland. apparently the redeem codes you buy over here are done so that they only work in the country/part of the world that they were bought in. silly for not copping onto this but it took me ages to get sorted, some people working in helpdesks are idiots.

    basically i had to set up a new xbox live account (because you can't change your country once you set up your account) add the redeem points and download the stimulus package!! pretty annoying but got there in the end, must say xbox support on twitter were very helpful!!
