Free Xbox Live

[testrada3]

I was just at the store trying to buy a 12 month xbox live card and the guy working there said that they can't sell them anymore because xbox live is becoming free!

I really don't think there's any truth to this.

 

[testrada3]

Microsoft won't allow stores to sell them anymore.

As nice as that would be, I seriously doubt it. Especially with features like Netflix etc.

Besides, why would they stop charging for Gold when Sony is about to start charging for PSN?

 

[smsff7]

I don't believe it ether. I quick google search also shows nothing on the issue

 

[testrada3]

Then why would a sales rep. who wants my money say he can't sell it to me cause they aren't allowed to?

Maybe he was pulling your chain, or maybe he didn't know what he was talking about.

Not much proof that it's a 'confirmed MS isn't going to charge for gold anymore', from one sales rep.

Haven't seen any articles or other form of confirmation from anyone else that it's true. If it was, it would be all over the place.

 

[testrada3]

I see your point. Well if it is true then i found out first haha

 

[Spikemaul]

That sales rep must have been HIGH on CRACK!!!

Think of all those refunds MS will have to give out for the amount of time our accounts have left

 

[testrada3]

On some forums its saying this also. They said that ms announced it at some convention.

I may actually use my 360 if this is true.

Perhaps it's just the 'Gold' multilayer component that is going free (like it should have always been) and all the MS points will only be available for purchases of DLC, games etc.

 

[testrada3]

The idea sounds good to me. I got pretty damn excited haha had to share it with you guys just in case it is true

 

[sergiogarcia9]

Never gonna happen

Besides, i'm good paying for it, it's just a few bucks a month

 

[Zepher]

If they do make it free, I want a refund on my 2 years that is left on the account.

I doubt it will become free anytime soon, besides, I just got an email stating I should add another subscription because mine is due to expire March 4th. Doubt they'd encourage you to buy a subscription if its going free.

As much as everyone would love it, best not to spread false hope.

Looks like they stopped selling live cards at radioshacks all over. I checked today at 3 different radioshacks. I am very confused

 

[valtonray]

have you actually seen the training these sales reps get? lets just say you dont have to know jack about computers to work at best buy.

 

[testrada3]

Very true haha. I just emailed radioshack. I am tired of this. I need answers!!!
