I wouldn't waste money on those. Their pretty crap. These are way better and cheaper! Run it through an Ethernet cable later!

How is £30 cheaper than £20?

Last time I checked they were in the 50 Euro range. Does it really matter?

These look good! Thanks for the tip! Is it as easy as plugging the network lead from your modem to the adapter supplied and do the same thing to the xbox? Modem is downatirs and Xbox upstairs would this make much difference? Thanks again!

Their easy to set up. You pair them once you have them plugged into the sockets. Sender sits in a socket beside the router and the receiver sits in a socket beside the Xbox.

Sender is connected to the modem via Ethernet cable . Receiver is connected to the Xbox through an Ethernet cable too.

I use this at home myself for Xbox, even though I do have WiFi it's quite far away from the modem and the quality of the signal fluctuates

I've ordered from them for about the last three years for myself and once for my cousin. The last time was a few months ago for my cousin. I have yet to be disappointed with them.

My membership is up in two days and I am probably going to buy from here. A poster linked it a page back. 12 months for €31.50

Kylo Ren · 23-05-2013 04:34PM

Just got it from the link I posted above. 12 months for €30 (Got 5% off for liking their FB).

Got the code in about 60 seconds. Brilliant service.

Bought 12 months there aswell. Great service

greenman09 · 24-05-2013 10:17AM

Got 12 months + 1 for 28.99£. Looked on electronic first page after payment and they were 27.99. Converts as just under 35€

How long were you waiting?

1 minute. Did you put in 353 and then your number?

So if your number is 0871234567 you'd put in 353871234567

This seem to be working, $5 for 1200 MSP. Use an American address when paying, has been working for the past few hours and is all over the net so just for people who havent seen the offer yet. Codes take awhile to come through though.

They're activating on all region accounts AFAIK, maybe just buy one and test it for you then dive in if you want more

Yep, that was it, I didn't use the correct int. code so once I corrected that the call came straight through.

Excellent service, delighted it with it.
Thanks.

They must be on to it, tried a few times and got different error messages

greenman09 · 26-05-2013 02:33PM

Just tried this. Order going through. They will let me know when it goes through.

jamescd · 26-05-2013 11:36PM

Order went through fine using PayPal. Hopefully we get the code

Just got mine in about 5 mins.

Used a fake american address and a fake american contact number, got the email in a couple of minutes and applied it to my account without a bother

+1200 points more

Cheers "TheGunns"

Chancing an Arm and ordered another code with the discount

See how that goes

Edit: Got the second one

Got 9 codes. Loaded with points for a long time now :-) got assassins creed 3 for just under a tenner as well using points instead of paying 39.99 :-)

Kylo Ren · 27-05-2013 12:41AM

Ordered 10 minutes ago and still waiting...

wexdevil · 27-05-2013 10:11AM

Finally got my codes, didn't take as long as I expected and everything worked fine

evolutionqy7 · 27-05-2013 11:02AM

I ordered another 5 codes this morning. Taking ages to come through this time...

I ordered them at 6am. Still nothing now

MrVestek · 27-05-2013 11:07AM

Mine only came through at 8am

Did you pay with credit card or Paypal? I selected a US address in Paypal but on the MSN form it was a different address. Will try again both address matching.

jamescd · 27-05-2013 11:59AM

I got mine at 12 am last night, only noticed it now. Ordered at 11:30 pm so took about 30 mins.

Used a fake american address but I used my real phone number. Will be ordering a few more

It doesn't matter if they match, not in my experience anyway. I used a fake american address on the MSN form and my real phone number. On the PayPal site I just left it on the default address (which is my real Irish address). Got the code fine

Edit: Just ordered 2 more

Ok thanks, doe they email you the code or does it get added to the Xbox live account used to buy it?

jamescd · 27-05-2013 12:22PM

No they e-mail you with the code and you then redeem that code on your account
