  2. Need help redeeming my xbox live code

    I tried redeeming the code in my browser on my computer using these instructions, big mistake. It said "thank you, you redeemed your code" and then exited me out. No gamertag registration whatsoever. I thought the whole point of redeeming my code was to create a gamer tag, but no just exits me out. I then tried redeeming my code on my xbox (so that I could create the gamer tag) and it said "sorry, code already redeemed."

    so what the... what do I do now?

  3. XBL Code Redemption / Account Management Error

    Hi there, so was the code for MS currency or was it an Xbox Live Gold subscription? Please note that you cannot use currency added to your account to buy gold subscriptions.

    Have you tried redeeming on the console itself? Steps here:
    support.xbox.com/.../redeem-prepaid-codes


    I believe you can also try at the following link, scroll to the bottom and select 'redeem gift card'

  4. Cannot redeem my xbox live gold prepaid code

    Hi there,

    The forums work best when users share details on what their particular issue is.

    Where have you tried to redeem the code (console, Smartglass, Online-including browser).

    Are you getting an error code? if so what? No error code, what specifically is happening when you try to enter the code?

    Does your billing information match the region for the code you are redeeming?

    The more details a user can share, the better the support.

    Let us know some more details so we can help.

  6. Looking up the XBOS1005 code, it could be one of a couple reasons:

    -Make sure your account location (region) matches your physical location.

    -Make sure the code you are entering was purchased in your same region.

    -Make sure your billing information matches your physical region.

    If any of those items don't match, it will cause issues trying to redeem codes.

    Only other reason could be some sort of billing suspension on the account, and you would have to check with phone support to get that cleared up. If you don't have their number you can go here

    trial code not working

    Hello OliviaDavid,

    Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. We recommend checking the
    account subscriptions
    to make sure the prepaid code was redeemed successfully. Has the account ever used Xbox Live Gold before? Once an account has utilized the Xbox Live Gold subscription, the account cannot redeem prepaid codes for Xbox Live Gold trails.
    Be sure to let us know the results!

    Xbox live gold - redeem code for free 1 month

    Hello FellHaddock1099,

    Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. Have you used Xbox Live Gold on the account that the prepaid code is being redeemed on? The reason we ask is due to the fact that Xbox Live Gold trials cannot be redeemed on an account that has used Xbox
    Live Gold before. Be sure to let us know the results!

    Sbsidized Xbox LIVE Gold for 2 years

    Sign in to Xbox LIVE with the account for which you want to use the prepaid code.

    Press the Guide button on the controller.

    Go to Games & Apps and select Redeem Code.

    picture

    Enter the 25-character prepaid code and select Done.

    When prompted, click Yes to confirm the redemption.

    Here is what happens to your account when you redeem different types of prepaid codes:

    Xbox 360 Entertainment For All Plan: You cannot “stack” or combine prepaid subscriptions during the life of the contract.

    Xbox LIVE Gold Membership: An Xbox LIVE Gold Membership is added to your account, or an existing membership is extended.

    Microsoft Points: Microsoft Points are added to your account.

    Xbox LIVE Marketplace content: The content is added to your account and begins downloading.
