    xbox live card 35 normally 50

    I'm holding out for a $35 download from amazon.com myself, but this seems to be good for an irish store.

    I've been using it for the last 2 months and not once have i had an issue - I'm only on a 4mb download speed with a wireless isp.

    Yep, I can vouch for this crowd, they're excellent.

    The deal from Argos is great too, surely the cheapest at a brick and mortar in the country.

    Be careful when buying Xbox codes from amazon.com as they can be region locked.

    Another +1 for these guys, never been let down by them. The Argos price is very good too though for a bricks and mortar shop.

    For those with Vodafone for broadband:

    I managed to talk them into giving me 12 months live for free conditional on me signing into another 12 month contract with them. Seemed like an excellent little on the spot deal to rope me back in and I'll be trying to talk them into it next year too.

    If you have Vodafone for broadband and it's due to be up get on the phone to customer service and try and talk them into offering this to you. If needs be ask for a call back from the Northern Ireland sales team as they seem to be the ones with the power to give you offers, not the Irish sales team.

    cheers, didn't know that. I didn't have any problems with the code I got from them last year, but will keep an eye on it.

    Ya me too, mine is about to expire so great timing.

    Thanks for letting us know.

    Same here and I'm only on a dodgy fixed wireless 3mb connection. Never once had an issue with playback and loads of new content added in the last few weeks too.

    I am not a gamer but want to get this for a friend as a gift. Do you know if it can run concurrently because I am pretty sure he has Xbox live running at the moment. Failing that, is there an expiry date on it? Sorry that I don't know how it all works. Thanks

    Yes you just enter the code and it gets added to the end of the current subscription.

    Thanks for post OP got one over the weekend, mine was due to expire next week.

    Went in to buy and it's 41 quid so picked up 3 months for 12.99 which wasn't perfect but I think it's still quite good for a b&m price

    Amazon currently have the 12 months for £28. Probably the best price around. Think there was a thread about it the last day or two.

    Strange, but I have tried to get on this site all night and keep getting a "problem loading page" with the following end url

    Anybody else try them? Even the base domain name cheapxboxlivecodes.com isn't working :confused:

    Aye, but I'm not on that. Just the bog standard package with preferential pricing. Bit of haggling goes a long way. All they want is your name on a new contract for fear you might switch.

    Thanks for that, needed to get some Xbox Live points for my godson's birthday, got 2100 here for €6-7 less than the shops are charging.

    I thought to myself, gee, that offer looks too good to be true. I bought it anyway. So, we are gonna try again to-morrow for the third day to see can we get the x-box to take the code. I'll report back on our progress or lack of.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,382 ✭✭✭firestarter51


    Fella on adverts selling them for 25. I got mine on there for 30 last month no problem

    We got it done with a little help from technical staff.
