Xbox live question

[red rider]

Having just bought an Xbox live gold membership for 12 months, i assume its a scratch card what you enter the revealed number in, my question is is it better to start live membership from the end/beginning of the month to get in the full 12 months or does it not matter. Does the 12 months start from the minute you get on live then exactly 12 months after it ends?

Yep.. 12 months from when you use it, so whenever

It's not like car tax lol. You can also renew it before it run's out and it will take effect from they day it should have ended.

Thanks guys the answer i was hoping for.You never can tell with M S if they can squeeze more out of you they will.

Also, if you get any 1 month free trials or 48 hour free cards in your games, remember to add them on too, they will just add 1 month/2 days to your expiry date.

Cool I didn't know any of that. I assumed as well that MS would be on maximum thieving!

Ouch!

£27 from a few places online...

a friend of mien hunts for unused scratchcards at car boots, usually finds the odd one or two!

if anyone knows of a cheap place for MS points, some are needed!

I think I ran out of XBL and wanted it then rather than waiting for it..

i'm pretty sure it was £30+ from MS direct.
