    Unable to redeem Microsoft Points code


    When Microsoft announced the transition from Microsoft Points to local currencies, it was announced that Microsoft Points can continue to be redeem (https://majornelson.com/2013/08/09/an-update-on-the-change-from-ms-points-to-local-currency/). However, I
    got an error message when I tried to redeem a 4,000 pints gift card today: Check the instructions that came with your code. You might need to redeem it on a different web page.

    The support agent told me that Microsoft Points can no longer be redeemed. When I pointed her to the announcement link, she said the announcement was back in 2013 and is no longer valid.

    How can I redeem the Microsoft Points gift cards now?

    :)

    You are a couple of years late with this. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do now, just follow the direction of support on this.

    If you go to that page you linked to, it says at the bottom:

    "We’ll continue to accept purchased Microsoft Points Cards and codes
    until further notice"

    [Emphasis by me]

    So if I remember correctly, it was announced at some time that Point codes had to be redeemed until March or April 2015, after which you can't redeem them anymore.

    So unfortunately, you can't redeem your point codes nowadays.

    The cards aren't valid anymore. So unfortunately you can't redeem them anymore.
