MS Should send me a 1,000 points:

10/26/2007
Hi Evan,

Thank you for writing Xbox Customer Support!

We have received your email and as I understand, you would like to know if you can purchase MS Points online and then send this to a friend to serve as a gift...

(insert blah blah blah about how to buy points for yourself)...

About your suggestion of sending MS Points to a friend, we take comments and suggestions very seriously and review them daily. If you have more suggestions for new features that you'd like to be added to Xbox or its features, please reply back to me with your comments...

Sincerely,
Lloyd
Xbox Customer Care Team

US Only, figures.

And you can't "transfer" points, only buy them is my guess.

Purchasing a game or movie would be cool too. Although, there is probably some reason they haven't come up with this one yet. On the right track though!

Sniff... I just got suspended so I can't send out any points to friends...
They suspended me for my account name after having it for 3 years. and Now I cant even play Uno on my other account cause they have it locked to the first account it was bought on...
Im really starting to hate microsoft... even though I just got over 300 dollars in games. (AC6, AC, ME, and COD4.)
All I really want to do is play Uno... The game I have played since I was a kid.

If anyone is in a giving enough spirit to send me like... 400 points :-)
The email is StoneNbone420@gmail.com

This biased-to-america behavior is seriously starting to piss me off.

It's a matter of sharing bloody points, it's not hard. There's no reason it can't be released in Europe and everywhere else at the same bloody time. Just piss off MS don't sell your bloody country anywhere else if you're going to bloody ignore the rest of the world.

Hey, on the up side i guess christmas 2008 i can look forward to this feature, i mean, it took them that long to give us a video marketplace - right?

It's amazing. Everyone bitches about not having the ability to do this, then they start to roll it out, and everyon shits on them for it? Bunch of ingrates. Or P$3 lovers. Either one.

- Nice assumption that MS *hates* everyone but the US because they choose to start the roll out in the country that they're headquarted in? BETA?! HELLO?? Mind if they *test* it before spending more to roll it out internationally?
- You're suspended and you're bitching? Dude please. The people that pull the trigger on the Ban Hammer don't do it for the 'hell of it'. You deserved it, I'm sure.
- Toro, your P$3 is lonely and needs you to restart it so you can keep 'Folding@Home'. Someone posts a made up email and you assume it's some edited real life email that someone sent in for feedback? Oh, hey, I have this bridge for sale, interested?

It's friggen Christmas Eve people... wtf is with this negativity? Damn.... I hope you all get coal >

Kiss-ass boy, shut up.
Just because you have the ability to use this feature doesn't mean everything is all dandy. Those non-US members have every reason to bitch. You'd realize that if you lived out of the US. The range of the US-Europe realease dates are horrible.
Also what are you badmouthing TORO for, he's making a simple joke. But really I'm just defending him because how can you act like hes a PS3 fanboy when hes made about 800 comments on X3F and 12 on PSF.
So do as I said, shut up.

"Just because you have the ability to use this feature doesn't mean everything is all dandy."
- Wtf does this mean in regard to the topic? Oh you're whining because of a limited release for *testing*, I see..
- You don't expect me to apologize for where I live, do you? No? Good. Then you have some sense after all. Now quit whining when companies don't see it fit to release everything they do, immediately, internationally, and you'll really impress me.
- His joke is tired and old. I ragged on it. Deal with it.

Just like when European companies don't slate the US first for their toys, you shouldn't expect US companies to slate the European market for thier toys. But, like the jack asses here in the US that whine about being shafted, so too will we see idiots from Abroad whining. *shrug*

I just wish I could buy these points using PayPal. I hate having to use my credit card and rack up interest due to the other crap I buy on it.

as mentioned above you can only buy net-new points to send, not transfer off old points.
