So, you think that it is easy to cancel Xbox Live? Think again

BKnight of SFG writes: While I have nothing bad to say about the Microsoft Xbox Live Network itself, it does what it is intended. It allows you to play games across the Internet and to manage a friends list. It also allows you to have private party chats and a bunch of other cool features that Xbox Live competitors do not have. Some gamers see this as justification for the price tag, some do not. But, what happens when you decide that you no longer want to pay for Xbox Live and wish to cancel your subscription? For some it is as easy as placing a phone call to Xbox Live, for others it is a whole different ball game.

I just removed my card details via their website... can't auto-renew if there's no card.

BrianG4765d ago

Yea my bro went through a very similar case when he renewed for a buck for the one month.

Apparently you have to remove it from the website, simply deleting it off the console wont suffice.

Mr_Bun4764d ago

I still have my XBL subscription (expires Dec 17) and it still won't let me delete my original credit card. It seems that once you give them a credit card, they want to keep at least one on file.

Luckily the one they have on file has expired so I don't have to worry about the auto renewal.

BrianG4764d ago

I know bun, thats what I was saying, but apparently people disagree haha. My bro had to call the bank and MS at the same time to handle the situation of removing his Debit Card info and cancelling the renewal feature.

SixZeroFour4765d ago

cant you just call the bank and cancel/stop any future payments for LIVE?

Chaos694764d ago (Edited 4764d ago )

Doing that disables/bans your account (stupid, I know)

Godmars2904765d ago

I once made the mistake of getting XBL during the Xbox1 era through Circuit City. When I tried canceling it nether would even take my calls saying the other had the account. Not only had to cancel the card finally but argue - with MS - about the excess fees I wasn't going to pay.

And no, this isn't why I'm anti-360 which I'm not. I'm anti-360 fanboy. Not that I will ever go near XBL - Gold anyway.

earbus4764d ago

Another lets try and take the heat of sony articles nice one.

Father Time4764d ago

Because you can psychically predict that this article wouldn't have been made if Sony wasn't hacked.

You forgot to add "thank God" at the end of the headline.

tomr29922531d ago

Indeed... Praise the Lord!

V0MIT_M0NSTER2531d ago

So glad that they won't mess with Banjo anymore.

-Foxtrot2530d ago

So you wouldn't want a proper Banjo-Threeie, Jade Empire or Kameo 2...really?

AZRoboto2530d ago

Or Crimson Skies. That was the shiz

FallenAngel19842531d ago

It's a shame we can't get another Banjo-Kazooie game

-Foxtrot2530d ago

Literally one that's called Banjo-Threeie and they start the game with Kazooie waking up in distress telling Banjo of a hardly nightmare while recapping Nuts and Bolts.

PhoenixUp2531d ago

Microsoft never could maintain a longrunning decent 3D platformers series of their own

AZRoboto2530d ago

I don't think "longrunning" is really necessary... Isn't Blinx the only one that got a sequel?

darthv722530d ago

Blinx needs to return if at least to show up Bubsy.

ninsigma2530d ago

Not sure if it was Xbox only back in the day but I'd love a current gen jet set radio!

Paytaa2530d ago

Jet Set Radio Future was only on Xbox. Fantastic game. Even better than Jet Set Radio for the Dreamcast in my opinion. Such a good soundtrack too

ninsigma2530d ago

Game was beast and deserves to come back on current gen. And hell yeah plus one for that soundtrack!

Review: Table Top Racing: World Tour (Xbox One) by The Gamerscore Whores

Without a doubt, one of our highlights from EGX Rezzed 2016 was Table Top Racing. It was almost a classic love tale…”As soon as we locked eyes… (enter mushy crap here…)” – We think you get the picture. It just reminded us of a time where gaming was much less complicated and way more colourful, however at the time the game was only due to be released on the PS4… That’s not a bad thing. It just mean’t that being my primary console of choice is Xbox One, we wouldn’t get to play this any time soon as the majority of my games and friends reside in the Microsoft ecosystem – so when we got word this was getting a release on Xbox One, we immediately put our hands up and said “Yes, Please!”.
