Did you use a paypal account or just put your credit card details into the paypal site without using an account? I was refunded on a 4200 points card because they only accept payment from a paypal account and wouldn't process it unless had one, once I signed in and done it there was no problem. Check the email you got from paypal about the refund, there should be a sellers comment and it should tell you why it was refunded.

I wouldn't touch that with yours, at best, looks more to be a spam thing of a face book app on quick glance, could be more sinister but I didnt click past the front page.

Just updated briefly to show the latest price on CheapXBoxLiveCodes.com - just bought on there. 12 months Live, delivered quickly by e-mail.

Also - a tip I got from the Bargain alert forums, if you're paying via PayPal, on the payment confirmation screen you have the currency conversion. By Default it is selected to use the PayPal currency conversion rate, but you can select to use the rate used by the credit card company.

Using the PayPal conversion, the 12month card would have been €31.50. I used the credit card conversion rate and it worked out at €30.80.

I know it's only a Euro (more or less), but it's a Euro in my pocket .... Hmmm. Now, which cholocate bar will I buy with my savings?

You can redeem codes through Xbox.com - saves you typing out 25 random digits with the controller/on-screen keyboard.

Just bought a 12 month sub from Cheap Xbox Live Codes for £26.99; received an e-mail almost immediately asking me to confirm my contact details and received my 12 month sub 4 minutes later which I have redeemed successfully. Excellent service, I would definitively use them again.

If you click the link at the bottom of the front page, where it asks "Help! My code didn't work!", it will ask you to send them your password and gamertag credentials.

Other than the special packs of 1200 and 1600, there are 2100 and 4200 packs available. Thats all I'm aware of.

On another note, HMV are doing cheap points ATM. You can buy 2100 points for 15.91. Im not to sure of the delivery charges as its the UK site, but if you can get to a NI store they should be the same price there.
