How do Malaysians get on XBox live? I heard from a retailer that Malaysia isn't listed when signing up, is this true?

yes, malaysia isn't listed. many opt for singapore address to register. but any other listed country can also be used to register, like mine is USA biggrin.gif

Yup. You can put anything in the first few lines. You only need to put a valid US state and zipcode after that.

Same, then if we happen to get billed, we don't get screwed. I just looked at the terms and agreement (my dad wanted to see it before he pays for live) its solid as a rock. I can't see any initial loopholes.

there's one loophole when you charged by CC. when coming next year and the subsequence, they will auto debit to the CC, the only way to stop it by calling directly to MS, which for my case will be the US-of-A sweat.gif

I came across this article about Maybank having an Xbox Live. Someone point me out but the news is quite old. Is it still applicable for XBox360 owners?

it's actually a 'prepaid' credit card from Maybank SG, available in most game stores, sells for S$12 with S$10 preloaded (or S$20 with S$10 preloaded, i forgot). Can use it on XB live or on other stuff like a normal credit card. the thing is its issued in SG, need to go back to their branch to reload value, even if can online i dont have a maybank sg account.
