    You can only buy them in their allotted amounts as far as I know. That's how they sting you. Think I still have a few on my account.

    Can actually work in your favor though, for example a game comes out and costs 800 points which usually is €9.99 on psn I know there is now way in hell i pay 9.99 for 800 points depending on where you get your points, but yeah for that one time you need an extra 10 points to get something it sucks :D has happened me many a time but sure get 2100 OP you'll use them again some argos are still selling the fifa branded ones for €18 ;)

    I thought 800 was the lowest you could buy?

    They're assholes with this MS points crap. Just charge us real money per game so we know exactly what we're paying:mad:

    I think it's better with pre-paid cards, at least that way, if my account gets hacked, there'll be no valid credit card details to exploit. I agree that's it's inconvenience for most and having prices in €'s would make much more sense.

    Like I alluded to above a € value is set in stone , where as you have a choice where to buy points, and they can be got much cheaper than the price MS sets. SO it actually works in your favour if you shop clever.
