Microsoft Account Money Not Usable for Gold

I have checked the forums as to why I am unable to use money I have on my microsoft account to buy a Gold Subscription. The only thing close to getting an answer was one guy telling another that you are unable to use Microsoft Account money to buy Gold
at all. So really... Are you freaking kidding me? I have money already on my account ready to use and I am unable to buy Gold? I was in the middle of playing when I was kicked. Someone tell me this is a very bad joke... the only other option is that it's
a freakin cheese scam. Oh... and how do you get a straight answer from someone from Microsoft? Killing my game time here.... what a drag.

How to buy stuff on xbox.com with my local currency from previous Microsoft Points ?

Hi,

Since the update, I can't buy anymore stuff on xbox.com website with the credit I've got from my previous Microsoft Points. I have to purchase on my Xbox 360 console. I can't use the credit on the website even if there is money on my Microsoft Account.

Is it normal ? Can I only use a credit card on xbox.com, even if I already have money on my Microsoft account that could be used for purchasing stuff on the marketplace ? The money from the Microsoft Points is only usable via the console, not the website ?

 

MONEY APPEARING IN MICROSOFT ACCOUNT!?!?!?

Do you have to sign up for microsoft rewards or will they just send some extra cash to anyone who purchases from the store? I recently bought a few games and would love a kickback haha.

 

Because dashboard memberships and promotional memberships require a reoccurring payment option

Currency has never been used as a payment option for subscriptions

When you click on the dashboard deal or membership you are told this membership will renew

You do have other options like prepaid membership cards at full price and sometimes with promotional dlc

 

Right. So basically I've now gotta go spend more money to renew instead of just being able to use what I believe should already be available to use. Yes I understand that it is not a reoccuring payment option, and No I still believe this is just a money
scam which i'm still going to get my Gold back today... Lost game time to this garbage joke.

 

AddamBomb2002, the ONLY ways you have EVER been able to purchase Gold is either with a credit card/paypal or with a prepaid gold subscription card. This is how it has always been. Nothing has changed. Not a scam.
