nope, can't be shared... one card has one code which gives one specific amount (in this case, 1600 ms points). save it for future use la

i made a gamertag registered in uk,so my dad can buy ms points for me to buy rock band and guitar hero dlc.
then when he left to go home,i found that his credit card was still in my gamertag,so i downloaded death magnetic wink.gif
of course i asked him first....

basically,YOUR XBOX KEEPS CREDIT CARD INFO,YOU CAN'T DELETE IT

other than play-asia.com and GH, is there anywhere else where i can buy MS points online immediately, like http://www.microsoftpointsxbox.com/ without creating a new US account profile? blink.gif

also, if i were to buy some DLC, like the new Fable 2 DLC, using my US profile account, will i still be able to use it when i log into my original asian account? if yes, does this work with ALL DLCs? sweat.gif

rclxub.gif rclxub.gif are you sure? cuz its stated on the website:

QUOTE
According to xbox.com, the 1600 and 4000 points purchased from the U.S. can only be applied to accounts registered to the U.S.

The points is compatible with USA Xbox 360s only and USA Xbox Live Accounts on non USA based Xbox 360s. Example: If you are based in England, but have a USA Xbox Live account on your 360, the code will work for you. We have satisfied customers from around the world. The Gold Subscription code, however, works worldwide.
and my profile's registered under Singapore, not USA. are you sure it can work?

I don't feel safe using credit card to buy MS points. I just go to Gamers Hideout and buy the prepaid card there.

i cant seem to add ms points even via www.xbox.com.

if i enter my CC billing address (which is in Malaysia), it gives me an error that my postal code is invalid. (cuz my account is registered under Singapore with a Singapore address)

if i were not change my post code and jz enter the remaining details, i get back a "Server Unavailable" error....

*sigh* so mafan la this.... and i hate wasting time goin down to GH @ the curve jz to buy the points... waste time, parking and even petrol~

if buy from PA also still need to wait for the actual card to be shipped here sad.gif

got no website that sells Asian MS points which can be emailed me? like those websites like http://www.microsoftpointsxbox.com/ ??? sad.gif

I have an australian account, much worst, i even had to pay 40 bux just for trying to input a new CC, transfer fees they said. Just buy the points in card form, avoid the hassle. I can't seem to remove the expired CC from the account, so now I'm reloading live manually. I can't get Australian points unless I buy in Australia. The only way I can buy stuff is by buying SG points, load it into my silver SG account, and then buy stuff there, hoping that it runs on my Australian account. So far arcade games and COD4 dlc works for me.

i picked up the prepaid card from GH .. 1600 points for rm 89.90. less hassle. unless if u don't mind waiting then playasia is the other choice.

I just heard PA no longer has free shipping.

Haha good thing I stumbled upon this thread, because about a year ago I can use my prepaid AMBank MasterCard card to top up Xbox points with no problems with make up SG address, now not anymore, I thought my card was the problem, but I can buy stuff from PA with no problem. Turned some members here having difficulty as well.

Well i'm tired of this prepaid credit card anyways, gonna apply for real credit card ASAP.
