Live account start fail on Xbox360 made me loose money

Don't bother, I've been given the round around for over a month only to be told at the end that "too bad" it can't be reset and need to start a new account. You loose all those points and credits. Say good bye to it because Microsoft just made money off
of you.

I have the same problem my xbox360 is connected to the internet and fails in xbox live although I pay for it, I don't understand the information you have to put in it keeps taking me back to the start my subscription works on my laptop

There is more info on how to trigger achievements which are not unlocking right here

forums.xbox.com/.../1958241.aspx

Together with a survey if all else fails staff might be able to trigger it for you

if the game sent the criteria out to 'pop' the achivement, you'll be fine. fire up the achievements App and have a look at the two achievements in question. they'll show as unlocked, locked or 'done unlocking' - LIVE is back up and running now.

Unlocked - You got the achievements! hooray!

Locked - Game has failed to communicate unlocking of achievements - load an old save and redo the criteria

Done unlocking - Wait 36-48 hours and they should unlock. sometimes the system gets a little caught up.
