Gears of War 2: Microsoft flubs gold Lancer offer [update]

I got the regular edition of the game and the gamestop people gave me a little card with a code that gave me the gold lancer for free

Anybody else get it this way?

Im not going to go into their tech support, just... no...

Get this. I try to upgrade my iphone 2G into a 3G (sorry for bringing the iphone into this) at an apple store. It turns out I have a hold on my account. But the connection people don't know why and they cant remove it. They tell apple associate to have me call CS and find out and get it removed. I call they tell me I dont have any holds, apple person speaks with them, apple rep is reassured that its a mistake and asked to call back.

He does and gets told of att I still have a hold, they try to push the phone upgrade through. No good.

I call ATT while apple rep is on the phone with ATT himself. I teld them what Im told and they still can't find it. Call gets disconnected.

try again, new rep, call gets disconected,
Try again new rep he finds the hold but doesn't know what it is, tries to escalate it to supervisor, call gets dropped.

Call again, and mind you each time I call I have to go through the automated service and then once I reconnect, I have to explain the problem all over because no rep will escalate it or transfer me even though I tell them to what department unless I tell them everything all over again.

Finally get someone that knows on the line.

It turns out that somehow in some weird bizarro sort of way, the fact that I was a getting a paper bill at my house was preventing me from getting the phone. Once they removed this "Feature" as they called it from my account I was able to purchase a phone. And this only took them a grand total of 3 hours.

This was just me trying to buy a new phone

So yeah, ATT worst service ever.

Now on to those tech support calls and trouble shooting.....

I thought his review wasn't as good as all the others. It felt really paced and bland, opposed to his usual fast paced and irreverent style that we've all come to love.

I don't know. Maybe he's loosing his touch

@ Saria the cat and Makishima

I am glad and somewhat surprised to see that your discussion didn't turn into a flame war or degrade into name calling. We need more people to act civilized in forums. Thanks for showing us that it's possible.

AM I the only who thinks that doesnt look like it adds much protection at all. I mean it looks like it's way too soft and wouldnt protect anything.
