    I'm in a similar position, with around £70 in vouchers deducted and still not refunded, although they have not yet queried this. They did tell me to give them until 24th October while it was investigated though.

    I was told to wait until today and they did not get back, I made another phonecall this evening and was told to wait until Monday, I asked to speak to a supervisor, was put on hold for 10 minutes and then the customer service agent came back on the phone and told me that the supervisor had authorised the issue of a promotional certificate of the same value in place of my missing gift certificates, credited to my account immediately. :j

    Does anyone know if I could part exchange this "bargain" for a PS3? I have tried talking my son into having the XBox but, hes not keen, wants PS3 to play against his mates!

    thanks

    you would probably get more cash as a sale but nothing stopping a P/EX at game or the like
    given how cheap you got it you would probably not lose out
  • i just tried this and it went through at £197 which is a good price but not worth it to me, but going to my account i cancelled the order straight away
    this was the black elite xbox360 and the wireless &game pack going through the OP's link

    Sorry I'm a bit dim with the gaming stuff but what are the points for? I've bought the xbox for my son but was just going to buy him games for it :confused: so it would be good for me to be more clued up before we give it to him at xmas :o

    Thanks

    This is assuming he'll be gaming online, and you'll need to buy him an x box live membership.

    I use mine to buy new songs for the singing game 'Lips' :)
