Thread hijack :D

So I assume that means you can only buy it if you have a live account registered for those regions? What about UK Live (mine expires today :( )

Since my $ is tight I think I'll go the 3 month route. Whats the current Pound/Rand exchange rate?

Thanks Optioncarduser!

EDIT: Just bought a 3 month Gold card via Take2. They finally have stock of that. No MS Points though.

With gamepointsnow it seems you have to register a Paypal account. With their system you must register with your country of residence as they post stuff to you to verify your details. I don't see SA in that drop-down list. How do you get around that?

damn iv got a british one.. and im in the edenvale bedfordview area, think il maybe snoop around or try ask a friend to do off a site
do they send you the code straight after payment?
 
Search eBay. There are lots of sellers of 3-month and 12-month subscriptions, you but if from them through Paypal and they e-mail you the code. Done this a few times now, not one single problem. You normally get the code 1 to 2 hours after purchase.

Not anymore, they've changed to use Google checkout, now you don't even have to register on the site.
 
hey there.. need some swift help if at all possible

im putting in the credit card details in to get live access and it keeps telling me my payment method is not accepted, please help?
 
Don't put in any of those details when creating an account, you can't buy live through the 360 from an unrecognised region - the Credit card address validation fails.

Do as follows:

Create a Silver account - locale UK
For your address, you just need to specify a UK postal code, I typically use Buckingham palace: SW1A 1AA ;)

Do not go for Gold, just take Silver (you'll get a months free gold anyway) - There's no CC verification.

Once the month is up, go to https://www.gamepointsnow.com/ to buy your subs and Points, use the Google checkout option if you have a choice. (It's cheaper and easier than MS anyway!)

Happy gaming ;)

There are still a few guys playing Halo locally. Send a friend request to Kommandant1234 as he still plays a lot. I can see that he is playing it right now as I type.

Also go to the local xbox forums and find people there.
