    The two subsequent orders I made have been cancelled too. But they only refunded me for one, not both. Have opened a dispute, feckers :rolleyes:

    CheapXboxLiveCodes refuses to accept my BoI debit card. Is there any other reputable site out there? My Gold sub runs out soon & I want BF3 premium :)

    www.cdkeys.com are the cheapest...I got 13month sub for 31 Euro.. Thier ms points are also very cheap.

    It says you receive the codes in 5 minutes but it took 45 minutes.

    Use Money instead of Points on Xbox

    The end of MS Points !!

    "Transactions on Xbox will soon take place using your local currency instead of Microsoft Points".

    But your existing points are still good, "please continue to purchase and redeem Microsoft Points cards and codes – we’ll accept them until further notice".

    "For more information on the transition and what to expect, please visit http://www.xbox.com/pointsfaq".

    Wonder what the logic is behind this one.

    Points cards still redeem at more than they cost so fro example a 4200 card bough for €36 redeems at just over €50 in local currency..... that said I'm in the beta so they may change it still but dlc / a game that now costs 1200 points costs €14.79 in real money under this system :mad: going on what has been said so far currency cards akin to PSN €20 credit seem to be a ways off given the amount of points cards in circulation so we'll be buying points cards for a while yet even after this system goes live for all.

    Just to add points converted to currency under this change over have a 12 month expiry date

    Fastxboxlive.com currently have 12 month subs for £25.99. I have purchased from them a few times and had no issues with them. I have also known people to head too facebook to complain they have not received their code only too apologise after as email was in junk folder.

    Have they changed over to cash already? Planned on buying points tomorrow, will they still work?

    The Change over to currency has taken place already, but any Points cards that you have can still be redeemed for equal or greater cash value. (Most likely because there would be lots of those cards unredeemed out in circulation somewhere).

    I still see some stuff on xbox live, dlc packs with their prices still in points. Other stuff is in Euro. Not everything is updated yet.
