I'm on T-Mobile and it was within seconds. Users over at CAG say it's not working with AT&T.

I say it's not working with AT&T.

If anyone snags an extra code, I sure would appreciate one. I've been a Free member for a couple months now.

Sucks to have the family account when these deals come around. No fun for me.

Worked for me on Sprint, although I had to do the original message in all caps to get it to go through (I know it shows that in the original post, but a lot of these don't seem to be case sensitive. This one appears to have been for me.)

And thanks!

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines

So....my account got hacked or whatever and drained of the 3000 points I had sitting on it. Awesome. Anyone else had to deal with this recently? I wasn't on for the past few days, but saw it showed me playing FIFA 2012 yesterday, which I don't play, and noticed my points were down from 3000 to 34. Changed my password info and opened the case with Xbox, but they're telling me I have to stay offline for 6-7 days, which blows. Awesome.

Damn that sucks. Sorry to hear it.

j/c : What did they do with the points? Transfer them to another account or spend them on something? And does it show in your account purchase history?

They spent them all on packs or whatever in FIFA it looks like. Luckily I don't have my CC on the account and luckily they didn't do something smart like change my password so at least I could get in and protect it all again before calling Xbox.

The FIFA 12 hack has happened to alot of people, and I have not heard for sure how this actually happens. There have been 4 or 5 of us on this board that got hit by it.

I thought it was pretty telling that one of the questions they asked was "Have you ever registered a game with EA." Uh...yeah...do they even give us an option anymore?!

Yeah I had bought my first EA game in years, NCAA 12 right before I got hacked. EA and MS swear that the servers were not compromised, but I think idiots like me who had the same EA and Live password prove this wrong.

I had the FIFA hack a while back, it sucked but MS refunded most of the points and I changed all my emails/passwords.

Had this happen in the fall. Same deal. Said I played FIFA 12. Don't own the game. Points went from 4300+ to 50.

Took Microsoft about 3 weeks before I could use my account and got my points replaced a few days later. Not to be a downer, but unless they are getting MUCH quicker 6-7 days is a pipe dream. Plan on a minimum of 2 weeks. Good news is they will take care of you, eventually.

I've actually heard from a few folks via Twitter that they got resolved in 3-4 days when it happened to them last month. So it sounds like they may be pretty well versed in dealing with the problem at this point. (Which also says a lot about the cause IMO.)
