Live Account Hacked

[Sanctus]

I have a saved payment method, but its just a prepaid so it never has money on it until I'm about to buy

That sucks, glad I cancelled my account months ago (they tried to charge me for another year but my bank blocked them ). Had a similar incident where my iTunes account got hacked and someone spend $20 on frecking Beattle music I believe, good music but not something I wanted. Ended taking off my credit, resetting the password and everything. People I swear...

If you try to cancel your subscription on their billing website, it links to a page that doesn't exist anymore on Xbox.com

So I just changed my CC info to wrong values . Have fun trying to renew that shit MS!

Had to call them to cancel, since it wouldn't let me on the site. The dude told me the account had actually renewed but once I told him my bank blocked it he canceled it.

I cancelled my account in September last year. The guy was chill and it took like less than 5 minutes to get through the whole thing. I dunno, I guess Canadians don't fuss other Canadians like Americans fuss other Americans.

I got 1000msp and 1mo of XBL today. I actually came out of this with more shit than I had before, heh. Still not renewing for the foreseeable future.

Just found this, pretty useful if you wanna cancel:

"As it turns out, Illinois passed a law that requires internet gaming service providers to have an online method to cancel the service. So here are the steps to turn off auto renewal for Xbox live:

• Go to the account page
• Go to Billing Account Information and change the address to somewhere in Illinois
• Back on the account page, go to Manage Payment Options
• Edit the credit card's billing info to be somewhere in Chicago
• Back on the account page, click Upgrade/Manage Account
• Under your avatar where it says Automatic Renewal: On, the On should be a link, click it.
• You are going to have to click next quite a few times but eventually it will give you the option to turn auto renewal off.
• Profit

It takes a few minutes, but is far less painful than calling support and having them potentially cancel your account instead of turning off auto renewal."

On top of the 1000MSP I got for free, I can still access those shitty indie games. Too bad they didn't spend my old MSP on shit that was worth it...

Also, it turns out they did do a license transfer (if I had waited an additional month before doing mine last year, the cooldown period would have still be active). I have to wait until May to re-transfer.
