Download Code for halo 5 limited collectors edition iOS illegible, now what?

HuRRiCaNe G88 · Oct 21, 2015

so I scratched off the silver crap on the card that was in my $200 collectors edition and the code is illegible. About 3 of the characters look like the printer ran out of ink while printing. The stupid 14 day trial code for Xbox live is PERFECTLY visible,
but not the code for my game. 343 has ZERO customer support. I was on the phone with 2 different Xbox reps who basically said this was my only option or I have to return it to gamestop which is probably what I gonna do tomorrow.

Halo 5

No, however if you got the collectors or limited edition with a downloadable code for halo 5 it wont let you start the game up till Monday at 10pm. They released the collectors and limited edition a week early to give people a chance to download the game
so they're ready to go at midnight of the release.

Share your special editions!

I've got Killzone 3s Helghast Edition(was on sale for $25 at Best Buy awhile back) and that's about it as far as fancy collectors editions go.

.

I've got Halo 3s Limited Edition, Halo Wars limited edition, and Devil May Cry 4s Collectors Edition. That's all I've got.

This game specific forum doesn't get read by any xbox support staff.

You would be better off posting in the official support forums

forums.xbox.com/.../4271.aspx

Xbox staff do read and reply to them forums so if you get their attention they may be able to help.

Unfortunately though if they don't reply you may just have to return the game to gamestop.

I would say that exchanging it is your best option.

Xbox Support and 343 Industries are offering customers the opportunity to exchange digital codes for physical versions of the game. This offer is available in the following markets: North America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Mexico. In order to
be eligible, the following must be true:

You have received your Limited Collector’s Edition of Halo 5: Guardians.

You have not redeemed the code for the digital version of Halo 5: Guardians.

Fyi the reason they are doing this is because you got a prepaid to predownload it with the collectors edition rather then a disk

The limited edition is a disk copy vs the collectors was a code with physical items like the guardian etc

Hello

The support page on this matter only states the Limited Collector’s Edition of Halo 5: Guardians, but since you do have to contact official support for it you can always ask them if the code from the console is valid for this exchange as well. Just be aware
that you will only get the disc, you won't get it in a case because the case itself is supplied in the Limited Collector’s Edition of Halo 5: Guardians.
