a friend sent me a gift, a code to redeem, but i lost the email that had the code. is there...

There are two ways to gift to friends. The first, email gifting, will give you a redeemable code after purchase (usually sent to you via email). This one you can then send to your friend. The only drawback is if you get their email address wrong and they may not receive it.

The second method which is the best is gifting directly to their gamertag on your list. That code will be sent to them via the Xbox Message Center and can be redeemed directly on the console.

If you have you can also have your friend look for the code. Tell him to:

Go to his order history page and look for the item.

Select View gift code. If the code was redeemed, check the name it was sent to.

If the code is still active, select View gift code and then Copy. Paste the gift code into the body of an email and send it to the recipient.

Hello, ask the friend to go in their account and resend you the gift code.

Hi,

As far as i know there is no other way. Try talking to the person that gifted to you otherwise i dont think i'll be able to help you.

Sorry

Greetings

I bought as gift and emailed them to him the he redeemed the codes that were sent. I'll check this and reply back.
