    Worst rewards program/we should pay less for digitally downloaded games/preordered games don't ...


    I recently complained because I didn't get my star upgrade or any points in the last 2 months. I was informed by the xbox support person that I didn't receive my star upgrade or points because I pre ordered my games. This is outrageous! I spent around
    $250 in one month, but I didn't get any points or star upgrade because I preordered my games. When I preorder a game, I guarantee Microsoft that I am buying the game from them. I preorder through xbox live, which means, Microsoft isn't spending any money
    on a blu ray disc and packaging for the game. Why should I download my games, when I pay the same price as a physical copy? Why should I preorder through xbox live when I don't get credit for the purchase? This is the worst deal out! I signed up to Best
    Buy gamers club unlocked. I got a 2 year membership on sale for $15. I get 20% off the cost of my preorder, $10 in rewards for preordering (can be used on anything in store), and free shipping (game arrives on release date).

    Xbox needs to discount downloaded games! They are making a ton of money not paying for the disc and packaging. Also you don't get any money for trade because you don't own a physical copy. Also both Best Buy and Amazon give you 20% off the game for
    pre ordering. Other companies reward you for preordering, but xbox punishes by not giving rewards points. Well, Micrsoft just lost a huge customer. I own 4 xbox ones and 4 gold accounts (my family games online from different rooms). From now on, I will
    buy my gold memberships on sale from other stores, and I will buy my games from Best Buy (best rewards program out). I hope this helps people save money!

    :)

    Still haven't gotten my rewards points for Recore or Gears of war 4

    For help with the Rewards program, you'll want to post in the Rewards program forum. There were no offers to receive credits for preordering Recore digitally. If you preordered it as a physical disc from microsoftstore.com and did not receive the credits,
    Rewards support will have to look into it.

    Gears credits would depend on when you preordered it and if it was preordered digitally or physically.

    Myrewards preorder 15000 points

    For help with the rewards program, it's best to post in the Xbox Rewards Questions forum. Keep in mind that in order to qualify for that offer, the games have to be preordered as physical discs from microsoftstore.com. If you preordered digitally, the purchase
    would not have been eligible.

    Quick Preorder Question

    You don't need to pay for the PowerUp Rewards, you just have to sign up for it. You can preorder the game until the 4th, and you don't need to preorder to be able to do the game ahead program.

    What's everyone's thoughts if Microsoft offered some sort of buy back program or digital trade-in for credit in the marketplace?

    I feel like because they are digital, there is an opportunity for the price to drop. Not buying a game disc, manual, and case and cover should make the price less and yet I still pay much less for the physical copy than the digital. If the price for digital
    copies were lessened, we wouldn't need this mentioned buy-back program. Thoughts?
