Title: Signing Up For Live
Post by: black_light on May 31, 2004, 10:15:00 AM
Well im in a bit of a problem, i dont wanna go out and drop 50 some odd $ on a 12 month subscription because i had like a million 2 month trail cards so i decided to use them. low and behold there ALL fucking expired. Is there anyway i can register and just pay the 5$ a month at a time insted of buying a year first? or does anyone here have a subscription code that needs renewing or such that they will be willing to sell? (as long as i can still make my own gamer tag and stuff).

You can not use someone elses code.

why would you want to pay the 5 bucks (5.99 i think) so 6 a month for live when you can get a year for 49.99

6 X 12 months is 72 bucks (60 if you go at 5 a month)
so by paying 50 bucks for a year, the yearly savings are 10 - 22 dollars

yeah, i also use coupons, so what, its my $




--- i checked it is 49.99 a year or 5.99 a month, so renewing yearly ya save 22 bucks

Just use a trial code, then choose the $6 per month subscription.

If you need a trial code, check the Buy and Sell board.

But, you won't have a headset. Unless you want to buy one, but it makes more sense to just get the Starter Kit

You make it sound like an effort had to be made to get these cards. So why didn't use just use your trials?...
