I bought this Xbox Live Gold 12 months from this person. I open it and it's security sealed,nothing wrong. But when I actually came to put the code in it didn't work! It's not because I've got the code wrong because I've put it in at least 20 times, and I haven't done it wrong because I followed the instructions on the card. So what do you think happened?

Hi JohnCena54

To start with, are you getting an Error Code 801613fb, or is it stating that the code is invalid?
Also, is the code 25 letters/numbers long?
Also, are you on Xbox, or Xbox 360?

It seems that there are a few problems with these activations. One way around it is to open another XBL account. This seems to have worked for others in the past.

The only other option is to contact XBL either by email:
http://support.xbox.com/eform.asp...l&ct=eformts&locale=en-us
Or by phone:
International (direct dial to U.S.): 425-635-7180

Not much, but I hope it helps.

Best wishes

Stuart

Hi,

Look At The Code Properly.. Sometimes You Get The Codes Wrong Because You Think A Letter Looks Like A Different One Etc..

It Should Work, By The Way It Won't Work If Its Not From The United Kingdom Or United States.

Thanks.

Well I've definitely got the code right as I've even got my Mum to read it and enter it herself and it's still not working. It says the code is invalid by the way. I might contact Xbox Live as soon as i've had an e-mail back from SS.

I dont know whether this is possible, but it may be out of date...

No Xbox 360 definitely and I've got e-mail from Swapits:

Hi there,

Thanks for the email.

Have you contated Microsoft at all to see if there is a problem with the code? I advise that you do this and please get back to us letting us know what they tell you.

Many thanks

Chewie

I'm going to try and contact Microsoft later.

So, did this get sorted then? If not, just send it back to "swapitshop returns" with a note inside expalining what happened and why you want a refund.

Sounds likely. Swapitshop aren't meant to accept items like this anymore anyway because they say they can't check them
