BTW, since nearly every one of my family has a credit card I used different names and credit cards but the same address. Strange...never had a problem until now. Infact the order that I placed on monday arrived on thursday.

How many times have you ordered to the same address? They cancel orders once they see too many has gone to the same addy.

Yesterday I got a letter from Target (the store I "work" for). It had some bullshit written inside of it, I just threw it away. I hope they don't sue me now or anything, oh well I don't care. I'm gonna go order Project Gotham with my 1500 points now.

It's funny how you guys try to fuck with MS, and it's perfectly fine, but when they do something to stop it, you get all pissed off, lol.
Why don't you try and actually GET A JOB at one of the stores, and who knows, maybe you'd be able to afford some of the crappy merchandise you drool over.

comppimp,

I ordered a total of 6 times using 6 different names and credit cards but of course same address.

Nubs,

I also work at Bestbuy. Yep, you just can't resist free stuff.

Vladipuss,

Keep us informed about your order.

Chibchacan.. your answer are old... the price of the xbox is $199.99 not $299.99

Its the same thing for fuzion frenzy.. the price drop to 29.99$

I decided not to place my order yet. I e-mailed one of the reps and asked them if they will be offering new games in the prize shop. If he says yes, I'll wait. If he says no, I won't.

What we should try, once we have received the first package,is to change the information in the "profile section" (change the name, the address etc)for something fake..

Then in the new account, put the real info.. maybe it will work..

but maybe they keep the previous info somewhere else..

Guys,

I emailed microsoft to fix the charges problem (I had requested ~13 games and the charges went through). They knew I received 3 games and told me that I would have to pay retail price on the games since I wasn't qualified. The reason this is a really risky thing to do now is because they just hired some big hot shots to revamp everything. They weren't thinking about cheaters before but now its become a priority. They're hunting down violators. Don't do this anymore, it's not worth it.

"Hi, I ordered 1 Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding and 1 Xbox Knit Cap from the XBOX RETAIL TEAM...

I received an email confirming that my order has been received and that "My credit card was charged $12.49."

But , the problem is that when i click this http://www.microsoft.com/retail/xbox/prizehistory.asp.
I dont see any order, and my point are still there...

I dont know what to do, I have tried to refresh the page, clear my history... but it s not working

I dont want my credit card to be charged for nothing!

What should i do ??

1)re-order, and pay another $12.49?
2)wait to see what happen?
3)maybe delete this account (i m not even sure if thats possible)

Thanks for your help"

"The system rejects orders to the same person from multiple accounts, you card
was not charged. To order anything you will need to email me an image of your
pay stub as proof of employment.
