    Does your 12 month membership start when you buy it, or when you enter the code into your profile? Thinking of buying it now but using it from Christmas.

    It starts when you enter the code into the Xbox (or xbox.com), or immediately if you buy your subscription through the Xbox itself. If you've already got a Gold subscription, it extends it.

    hi lads, sorry for my noob-ness, but what's the difference between buying from http://cheapxboxlivecodes.com/ and play.com/?
    On the Xbox Forum I asked if I purchase from a non-irish website it won't work. I take it form all that is said in here that this is not true?
    Are the more issues with http://cheapxboxlivecodes.com/ and the phone numbers now? Do you get the code without emailing your numbers?

    Thanks.
    DOS.

    Play.com will send you a physical card with the code on it, cheapxboxlivecodes will email you the code directly, if you can wait then go with whoever's the cheapest, if you need it in a hurry then cheapxboxlivecodes is your only choice.

    There are USA (real cheap) codes that don't work over here, you need to go for a European one.

    It seems like threads looking for cheap Live Subscriptions and Points pop up every so often. Rather than saying the same thing in multiple threads, or having people search, why not have a sticky!

    I don't understand....are these third party retailers, selling MS points for less than MS do?:confused:

    Are you serious? Have you never used XBL?

    Microsoft Points are the currency with which you pay for everything on XBox Live (bar subscriptions).

    It's like buying a different currency. MS points is Xbox Live currency to buy stuff.

    12 month sub is 39.99 in Smyths toys according to their website

    Well done, why don't you ACTUALLY read it properly? That's for a 12 month sub AND 2100 MS points, 12 months live is £32.

    No need to be a prick. I misread it. Big woop.

    Anyway on second look its not a bad deal and have purchased it.
    I haven't done any online gaming for about a year now so should be good fun.
    Especially now I have the Kinect.

    Can vouch for Cheap Xbox Live Codes, ordered the 2100+12 month deal, had the codes with 10 minutes. As for that phone-number verification crap, you only have to send them the last 3 digits and they will send you the codes.

    Both codes worked perfectly when I input them into the xbox.
