    Did you guys get a specific signup link ( with some sort of tracker in order to get the 1 month free ), or you were redirected to rewards.xbox.com and hence everyone who sign in will get the same bonus?

    Thanks

    Only spotted it the other night when I was reading through it, that you wont just get 20 points. They wont pay out until you have 100 or 150 I can't remember the exact amount.

    The small print on the mail says that the offer runs until 31. May. So, I would presume that it is after 31. May that any bonuses will be applied.

    Looks like we won't know until after the 15th of June so you never know you might have been in the first 10,000 yet.

    Below is from the FAQ section of the rewards site.
    What is the Welcome Aboard VIP Exclusives Offer?
    A. Xbox LIVE Rewards has recently expanded to Ireland! We're giving new Irish members who sign up between 1 May 2012 and 31 May 2012 20 Microsoft Points! The first 10,000 members who sign up during that time will also receive a 1-month Xbox LIVE Gold membership. I live in Ireland and joined Xbox LIVE Rewards between 1 May 2012 and 31 May 2012.

    When will I receive my Reward?
    A. If you joined Xbox LIVE Rewards on or before 31 May 2012, your 20 Microsoft Points will be deposited into your Xbox LIVE account by 15 June 2012. They will not show up as Pending as soon as you join. The 1-month Xbox LIVE Gold membership will be fulfilled via email by 15 June 2012 to the first 10,000 members in Ireland who signed up. Be sure to check the email address tied to your Gamertag (where you receive your monthly Xbox LIVE Rewards Statement Emails – you can check this at http://billing.microsoft.com) and add XboxLIVERewards@eprizefulfillment.com to your safe sender list to ensure you receive your code.
