Ciaran: So that has been sent to our investigation team for you here. Our investigations usually take about 3 days or less to complete. But your account will be locked and subscription frozen so that whomever is using it at the moment, will no longer have access
3 God damn days?!

That happened to me earlier this year. I had my credit card saved on my account and it was used to buy downloadable games. Unfortunately xbl investigators couldn't find a shoe in a show store. In the end they told me they found no suspicious activity on my account. WTF!!! Lol!! Good luck!

Yes, Jeff get your card off your account. It can be used by anyone who takes over your gamertag which is rediculously easy to do. Its on youtube how to do it. I just buy a yearly membership card for $49 every year, and enter the code.

Hell yeah Microsoft found malicious activity. They refunded me the 4,000 msps and reset my live account. I should be on later hopefully.

Oh, good!! I'm glad it worked out. You must of found someone competent at XBL!! Lol!! Now you can catch up in the 2v2 tournament, so me and Jeff can beat your ass and move on!! LMAO!!!
Mine was hacked too, just found out today. I downloaded that new Xbox Live app for iPhone/iPad and when I tried to sign in, it said my account had been tampered with. I had to go to the website and change the password information. Apparently whoever got into my account wasn't smart enough to actually change my password, cause I logged in there and changed it. Gtg now. I still need to check my recent activity to see if they fucked with my ms points

That's so fucked up! If Xbox security would have cooperated with me a little bit I would have locked up my hacker myself. I just needed to know what state the hacker was in, and that was it. They couldn't figure it out so they covered there incompetence by telling me there was nothing suspicious.
I didn't find anything out of order yet. But it won't let me remove my credit card from my account...:mad:

Actually my problem hasnt been resolved. The password reset they sent me was to the wrong Windows Live ID. Yahoo has the worst customer support on the planet. I am working with the Windows Live team to reset the shit so I can access my account long enough to change it to the new stuff.

I changed up all my Live account info recently, and have to agree about Yahoo sucking balls. Not as bad as Flixster, but damn close.

Check that Finch. You can't remove it cause it's linked to your membership. You would have to input a pre-paid membership card to be able to remove it I believe.
I finally got my account back after some sparta-kickin' in the throat area of all the technical supports involved in the making of an XBOX 360. Game on.

Yep. And sometimes they have deals where they'll knock another $5-10 off. Or newegg sometimes does the same thing (but Amazon has free shipping).

hmm this sounds like the way to go with the card.. but do they offer gold family cards?? its cheaper to be on a family plan with my kids then buy separate accounts..
**ok after looking up possible solutions.. NO there is no card i can buy for my Gold Family Membership.. but for everyone wanting to remove your card info.. i found a way!! enter in your Paypal acct info.. paypal will auto cover up to 1500 automatically i think in case of fraud.. but its safer then just having your card info on it!!

I have the family pack as well, so I was looking for a way to avoid the card. Thanks for this! I'll change it tonight.
