Slighted from a xbox live referral promotion post number 2

Okay so me and my brother from another mother hooked him up with an Xbox one. I've been playing Xbox since the original halo and the last system he had was like a 64. Any who as we hook him up about a week ago we see
that Xbox live is offering a referral reward. we're like awesome he gets half off his first subscription to Xbox live and I get 10 bucks so I can get that DLC I've been eying but couldn't justify my self to spend money on when I have like, adult bills to pay.
but he deals mostly in cash so we have to wait a few days until he can get a new debit card to link to his shiny new Xbox account. So I waited on referring him because I didn't know how the process works if there was a time limit or if he would be asked to
enter a card right away. So yesterday Friday he's got his new Card and we sit down to get him Xbox live. he links his card to his account and I boot to the home page to refer him... except there is no referral tile... I putts around the Xbox a while trying
to find it with no luck, its just gone. I look online, I check the Xbox rewards page, I try searching for it through the website... nothing.... its gone. I figure we missed out. wouldn't be the first time and wouldn't be the last time my s**t luck strikes
again. (that's a funny). we decided we've waited long enough so we run to the store and get him a 3month card, because he would rather use cash, and we can get a discount because I used to work there. Well lo and behold today I pop onto my Xbox and there it
is the referral tile, smacking me in the face like an ex girlfriend who suddenly loves a**l and I cant have any of dat sweet booty. It seams petty but I would really like my 10 Xbox live dollars just to that I didn't bring my friend into the Xbox clan when
I should have sold my Xbox one and bought a ps4. I contacted support and Van S. the representative I talked to "who is 101% man" (his words I hope he reads this. chat reference 1427609308) tells me that basically all I can do is whine to the user forums and
pray that almighty Microsoft takes notice of my plight. Here is my complaint I hope you find it amusing enough to get noticed by an admin.

Free Xbox live and promotions?

I really need Xbox live, and other promotions would help. Is there anyway I can get free promotions? Maybe from helping out the Xbox community? I have this referral number from Xbox: [MOD Removed - Please see
