I had a right chew on. I got multiple emails i thought nothing off then next i know my account was suspended :homme: bad ass yer. Straight on the blower, i got them to phone me and they did i paid the £11.95 i owed for 2 months then the irish dude sais "yeah bud sorted"

A week went by and i checked my emails to see another EMAIL! :wall: :fcuk:

Checked my account to see i had "auto-renew" still on and i couldnt even take it off myself! and it rolled over onto this month. :cry: so i owe another £5.99. fml. I went on a online chat and managed to get it sorted from there. Once its paid im taking my paypal off and using the cards you can buy. I aint getting shafted again.

BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER PUTTING YOUR PAYPAL ON XBOX. AVOID

Well when you cant take off "auto-renewal" (it wouldnt click 'off') then find out how much of a chew on it is lol.

Honestly...

Ive not had any issues on my PS3 like this ever.

It's always been perfectly well known that the only way auto renewal can be turned off is by phone. HOWEVER, they have recently made it so you can do it via Xbox.com

Xbox live can be a right BITCH!! :wall: ffs.

I tried to buy a map pack the other week, on blackops.. I bought 1200 MS points, when I went to buy the map-pack, It got to 99% and FAILED!

To cut a long story short I wasted £14 on the points then another £5 trying to fix it with a VPN and a whole night/day of messing about.

Its making me want to move to Playstation.. I have more mates that use one anyway!

If it fails (Which i've never heard of) you simply click "Download again" and it costs nothing.

So it isn't "wasted" at all!

I also have both....from World at War to MW3....not a patch on BF! You should download CQ for BF, it'll make you think your playing COD but it will come with awesome graphics and people who aren't 12 year old kids

I'm sure if I actually played it a bit more I would get into it.

It so different from MW (MW2 I've reverted back to btw)

thats because the 2 after are just the same right and most people actually play MW2 lol. But yeah, give BF a good few hours etc and you'll love it!

COD snipers can't hack the bullet drop lmao

Get playing it then! Yes quick scope spoils the whole game for me, and the fact they are all the same....after getting used to BF, I kinda expect to be able to send my rocket through a wall to kill someone lol yet MW doesn't let me :(

It's a known 'issue' (read: scam) that microsoft don't honour the auto renew.. Indeed I know for a fact I said no, I remember doing it and they still charged me and continued the subscription.. Bastards.

if they dont honour the auto renew off thing then phone them up within 30 days for a refund, just had to do this with mine pain in the arse massively but still got refund
