    Thank you.

  3. I can't redeem my codes of gears of war 360

    Hey there Erickalvarezs55,

    Sorry to hear about the issue with redeeming the codes. Have you tried the Prepaid Code Troubleshooting guide yet? Sometimes that can help out. Where are you physically
    located currently? Does your account match the region? Is your console also connecting to Xbox Live within that region? Try to redeem the code on xbox.com HERE and let us know if you're also seeing the same error
    message and error code. Please also post the error message and error code here as well.
