 DOESN'T WORK WITH EA GAMES IF UNDER 18!!!!!!! BEWARE! February 12, 2008

Please don't make the same mistake as us and register this in somebody's name who's under 18 as NO EA GAMES WILL WORK ON XBOX LIVE! That includes Fifa 08 and Tiger Woods 08 which are 3+ games.
XBOX LIVE support were totally useless and amazingly offered no help whatsoever. I consider the fact that there is no mention of the age restriction on the front of the games (next to the XBOX live logo) to be disgraceful and misleading at best!

The review by "Mr. S. A. Brown "yentilsale1" sums it up for me as I have just had the same problems. Why cant Microsoft do the decent thing and make a simple way of cancelling your membership via the console. You start your subscription this way, so why cant you cancel it this way!? Apparently, its for security and information reasons!! What a load of rubbish!! Blizzard are able to do all of this with World of Warcraft on the internet through your own personal account.
Microsoft, sort your public image out, its all an excuse to take money from people who forget to cancel their memberships. Shame on you!

Xbox Live is definitely worth 40 a year; providing you don't get unlucky like me and go to pull the card out of the box only for the sticky substance holding it in place to rip half the chuffing code off rendering the whole thing completely useless.
Ring Microsoft support up to try and get some help deciphering it and they they tell me to ring Microsoft in person? But they don't know the number so how am I supposed to do that? Email them? Fat lot of good that did. Gave them the part no. etc and they tell me it isn't valid or something of that nature.
Great. Cheers. Thanks a lot Microsoft. And amazon. For selling dodgey rubbish.
Geez... 40 I could have spent on Mass Effect...
Cancellation Nightmare October 21, 2007

I love Xbox Live, but I feel someone has to draw attention to the immoral sales tactics used with respects to cancellations. The only way to cancel is to phone a customer service number where you're kept on hold for a lengthy period of time and harassed by a customer service representative concerning your reasons for cancelling the service - why do I have to justify cancelling the service exactly? What's more, it took me several attempts to actually cancel my account (which is automatically renewed) because the operator had "no record" of my gamertag - despite my account still working perfectly.
This is completely unacceptable and quite frankly Microsoft have ruined a terrific service by opting for the gutter tactics of making it easy to sign up for an account but as difficult as possible to cancel. With this said, I love the product and I can only hope that if enough people complain or don't resubscribe - and I point blank refuse to resubscribe given the way I was treated - Microsoft will eventually change their sales tactics.
