Is great success! Thanks.

This would be great if the Microsoft points website didn't keep telling me there was an error processing my request when trying to add the points.

edit: scrap that... cant use it in my region

just add next time you sign in on your 360

US only, I used a US address and tried to use the code, but it would not accept, I assume that it also checks if your live account is US when redeeming the code

It worked, thanks a lot.

Yup not working for uk

Not working for me

In case anyone was wondering you can only do it once. If you use another email address to get a code you will not be able to add the points to the same Live ID/Gamertag.

In that case its a waste of time anyway whats 100 points get you?

You must be mad to even want to buy a gamerpic

code isnt working on my gamertag

I just get the error “A problem has occurred while processing your request. Please try again later.”
Im using a USA Live account and connecting from a USA IP address.

If you can only do it once per account then I don’t really see the point either

Doesnt work in the UK :0( anybody from the US want a promotional code without having to bother registering just PM me.

ive got 1 codes that wont work for me who ever registers them first can have them

VXGCG-JMRHG-X3R87-YR7RT-V8JJW

CFMG9-6TKPT-G6BVV-VKGP7-KXFWW

is that through the xbox live page or through your actual xbox?

Good find! Thanks man.

Is it me or is the UK always left out of these promotions? The US and Canada seem to get them all the time but we get diddly squat.

If only I knew of a us address to use...

Awesome, free points!

Maybe someone has just few enough points that they can't buy something without buying 500+ more points?
For example, if I wanted to buy a game or add-on that costs 800 points but I only have 700 in my account.

Or you could just buy gamer pics

KY3FP-GC4JH-PFCJV-968JD-P4248 here you guys go

Yes because 30 seconds of your time is a waste for 100 MS points? 100 points is 100 points, especially if it only takes 30 seconds to do.

Just put anything in the other fields and Ca/90210 for State/zip thought everyone knew that one HeHe

That’s on http://points.microsoft.com/
It’s the only place you can register them from what I gather.

Is it actually working for anyone in the USA? Just wondering as I’m in the UK but trying using remote desktop to a server in the USA.

You can also redeem codes on the XBox Live website

Here's two from me

V8WXG-BDDB9-KHDHQ-FDQ4C-329F8

MXG7C-FY997-QJHPH-F7BHG-MGXF8

the UK never has offers like this. the number of times i've wished that a offer like this would run for UK users is immense, and i don't know why they just don't do something nice for european's like this.

anyway here's a free code for whomever use's it first
RG4FF-DYYF7-94C79-73FDG-GT32J

ain't workin here in canada either.

Thanks, 100 points will be handy =].

Worked for me. I just used 123 Fake Street CA 90210

works, but i wonder what do we get for 100 points

You can tell a lot of people are just submitting random entries to get the points =P

Look at the submissions and all you see is red cars after red cars [no customizations ]

you can only valid it once I believe..

My friend made a script but since we can only redeem codes from the promo once...

US Only

Its working again now, I can confirm it only works once per account however you can actually get more points:

When you sign in, click browse showroom and rate a car, you get 50 points.
Create a new car and you get another 50 points.
Do these activities each day.

The points you get from this will be emailed to you when the promotion ends from what I’ve heard



Looks to work anyway, no harm in doing a few mouse clicks a day anyway!

Bah! can't even buy a theme with 100 points.

No, but do what InsaneNutter said above you and you can get up to 2000 points.

-Spenser

Worked here (in The US Obviously)

For those saying what can you get with 100 points? Not much, but those 100 points can go towards something else, like the 480 points to rent an HD movie, so no complaints from me, free money is free money.

Indeed!

well I can always save up for songs for rockband.

For all the people that say they can't redeem them, if you read just below the code in the email



I tried from the xbox.com website, it didn't work, so I went to points.microsoft.com, they added fine to my Canadian account.

actually im starting to like this thread

Hmm, are you in the UK? I thought it only worked for US and Canada.

im in India, but i do have a USA based Xbox live account so no problems for me ,

I am in the UK, however if you create a new msn passport account on http://www.passport.net when redeeming points on http://points.microsoft.com you will be asked what country you are in, pick USA. Now you will have access to USA only stuff and be able to create a USA Xbox Live account.

No idea if I will actually get the points but I’m on 750 now, its not exactly wasting much time creating and rating a car each day

They ran out of msft points

^^^That's too bad - I've been forgetting to do this every day, so I've only banked about 300 or so points (I think the rules said you could get up to 2000).

-Spenser

actually i have 5 accounts & i have got 950 from 2, 850 from 2 & 800 from 1

so with over 4000 from 5 accounts , i guess i got game

I got 700 points now, but how do i get them to my 360?
