Sorry if you've read my plea before, but I don't want to fork out £40.00 or so on a gold card when they're are half that on e-bay. The trouble is that they are US
and I don't know if they are compatible on a UK Xbox.
Can anyone shed any light on this.
Please,
DK

Yes, it's an Xbox 360 live gold card I'm after.
It is interesting what you say because I've just had an e-mail reply from M$ to sat that the US ones don't work in the UK!!0 -

That's not a bad price for a UK card but the US ones are sometimes HALF the price!!!
Once again the UK gets ripped off.
So we can buy them from the US, but do the us ones work here. M$ say "No" yet C-Ronald, above did just this at Christmas.
Anyone else had experience of this?0 -
