FOX is giving away 200 MS point codes for FREE! [update]

Update: All of FOX's free Microsoft point codes for this promotion are now gone. Congrats to those who got in on the fun.

Come and get your free Microsoft points! As part of their marketing fun for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, FOX is giving away 200 FREE Microsoft points to anyone with an email address and a gamertag. Yes, FREE with no strings attached. Simply head on over to the official Sarah Connor Chronicles website and look towards the bottom right hand side. There, you'll spot an "X-BOX FREE POINTS" form where you can enter your email address and gamertag. Then, wait a few seconds, check your email and tada! You should have received an email with a code you can redeem for 200 Microsoft points. We aren't sure how many codes they are giving away or how long this will last, so we advise heading over to the Sarah Connor Chronicles website stat. We love you FOX ... free Microsoft points FTW!

[Thanks, Eddie Barrera]

You mind giving me 200 points...missed the chance :,(

ey

I can't find it, and i'm not using firefox,, please help me !!??

greetz

It's going to be a great day!

I'm not seeing it...

Nvm...It shows up in IE, just not in FireFox.

If you have Firefox make sure adblock is turned off

That's what it was!

yea thanks for the tip about AdBlock.. thats what my problem was! hahaha

Just got my code. I wonder if there is any way to get multiple codes....

yea, you need to use different emails though.. unfortunately they've blocked most temp email sites.

mailinator.com work 40 and counting

Holy crap! Your are so right. Thanks man!

i used mailinator also but it doesnt show me my code, any ideas?

I can confirm this works on UK accounts as well. Which is nice.

Don't abuse it, you'll ruin it for everybody.

Works for Canadian accounts too. How nice!

what a day to be not home =(

Well, it should be interesting how much this offer gets raped. As many email addy's you have, you can get the offer. Just go to hotmail and make up new accounts for 200 points.

Man, it would be cool if Microsoft was looking at accounts that had a lot of these points (through the use of multiple e-mail addresses) from the form added and banned them from Xbox Live. Just as thanks for ruining it for everyone else.

I was thinking they might have a tracker on which gamertags were entered and have a system that throws up a red flag if you have the codes for different gamertags entered on you account

I like how when somebody does something nice, some people exploit it to no end.

I will gladly rip every penny away from the PoS that is Fox any chance I get. The world would be a better place without the one company that makes even Sony and MS look like saints.

@Ryan:

You aren't taking any extra money from Fox, you're taking it from fellow gamers.

Well I can't even find where the hell the form is to enter once, so I'M not taking anything from anyone, lol.

i fail to see how marketing for a new show can be construed as "nice".
Just make sure when you send your "thanks for the favor" email to Fox, leave the rest of us out.

You miss the point, Ryan... people like you have simply made the allocated points go faster for other people who would have wanted them. You haven't left Fox any more out of pocket.

Nice nothing. Welcome to spam hell.

Yea if you guys seriously think you are going to make off with like 5000 points or something ridiculous, scott-free, you really are nuts. Your points will be wiped at the least and you'll probably get your account banned. And thanks for trying to ruin it for everybody at your own gain.

Are they going to check? I'm scared now

I see nothing that says there will be any negative repercussions for entering multiple times.

Having said that, Fox can burn in hell.

I dont see it.

anyone else having troubles?

It's not letting me redeem it, says the code is incorrect and ive checked it twice

The fact that xbox is spelled wrong on such a big site is pretty crazy, especially since they have to be working with MS to get these points, you would think someone would notice

Actually it's not checking if the gamertag is even real, which makes the whole thing even more confusing.

Sweet !! Got my email w/ code almost immediately.

To be honest I can't be even BOTHERED to use other accounts to get points...

Thanks for the tip!

I put in a mailinato address and it worked pefectly. I put in another and to my surprise it worked again...

Not gonna cane it but someone's head's gonna roll on this one :O

Ok, just managed to get 28 codes from there before they removed the box and switched it with an american idol ad.

Sue me.

Wait that means you made it with...4600 points...lucky bastard you are!

You =

http://a1468.g.akamai.net/f/1468/580/1d/pics.Drugstore.com/prodimg/164996/300.jpg

As it turns out, I only managed to get 14 proper codes (rest were duplicates or "-02") :/

Oh well, I still raped that cow pretty nicely.

Also, no making/using many different email adresses, just put a dot or two wherever the hell you feel like in your gmail adress, and you'll still get it, but the fox site sees it as a different address.

eg:
myemail@gmail.com = my.email@gmail.com = m.yemail@gmail.com = m.y.e.mai.l@gmail.com

Sure this is of no use to you now, but next time something like this comes up (and it will), that's what you do.

You might wanna write that down or something.

PS. I FUCKING RULE

Wait what the fuck...after I tried to register for my JAP and US accounts , it got replaced with some American Idol ads. Does that happens to everybody?

O yeah I just realized it got removed...shit it seems like I'm the last person who actually got a code. Didn't even have time to get more than that...oh well I'll probably get an PA or Halo 3 theme

and its gone.

Damnit. I only got 1 code before they switched it. Way to go us :D

If you want more codes, just type in more than one email address. I did, used my same gamertag and got two sets. 400 points for the win, baby. You guys rock, X3f.

i got me 1000 points now it changed to american idol :(

man i manged to get 600 points but i was about to get more when it said american idol lol
