[atomsk]

sadly, i've still got points from when i used to work retail back in the summer.

good luck trying to scam the system though

Well several months back they were doing pay stub checks. This caught many people and had their accounts closed. So I think starting an account now probably won't go through because they will request a pay stub before they send everything out.

But, you may just be able to fall through the crack of security checks and still be able to recieve products while not working at a participating retailer....*cough* *Cough*.....

*whistles and walks away*

Do they keep your 10 bux if you get caught?

PM LOL

too bad they didnt keep the same precautions as the one they had for the xbox...that thing was better... :lol

I had a nice surplus of points before they wiped my account out. I did work for a Eb Games for a Xmas season and just kept using the site after I stopped working there. I got a email stating that I had multiple accounts and my account and points would be wiped out. Jerks.

What? What is this MS retail zone? I've been working at a department store since 2001 and I haven't heard anything about this...

 

[BioFan]

you have to work at a game/electronic store to get this benefits...sadly

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

I was registering and my store (Zellers) is listed, but it keeps on saying I have an invalid shipping address which leads me to believe Microsoft is an invalid company.

 

[jooey]

no, canada is an invalid country.

OH! OHHHH!

 

[Kabuki Quantum Lover]

Ah... the revenge for Iraq...

Fine, have it you bastards.

 

[Manick Joe]

Yeah I just picked up PGR3, Kameo and PD0 for $17.32 shipped! I don't even own a 360 but they'll make for good trade-in fodder at EB. Or if I'm really devious mucho store credit at Walmart (problem being I would have mucho store credit for Walmart )

360 games aren't available through the retail site yet.

EDIT - Wait, they are? I'm not seeing them listed on the site at all.

EDIT 2 - Ah, they're under the same heading as Xbox games. Sneaky.

 

[The Faceless Master]

wow, too bad i already own all of the 360 games they offer...

 

[Nutter]

:/ i see no (xbox or 360) games being offered.

Do the rewards depend on where you work/ed at?
V
like say different reward items for people who work at something like Compusa and Staples?

I work at eb, I'm in canada - I have completed all the trainign, i've ordered tons of games, and have gotten them.. Canada is elligible.

I ordered PGR3, Kameo, and PDZ, so yeah, some 360 games are there.

They ask for your store chain, number, phone number, and they verify it with the district you work in, via the msft rep for your store.

 

[Sgt. Killjoy]

Hell yea, got my 360 games, now i either have to get a 360, or go to walmart. I know going to walmart is pretty underhanded, but i need money dammit.

 

[bumpkin]

I knew there was a reason, other than a little extra money and a discount, that I got a part-time gig at Best Buy.

I'll probably pick up one or two 360 games so I have 'em when I get a 360 later this year. Sure, it'll cost me 10-20 dollars for them -- shipping charges -- but that's still cheaper than than any launch games will be by year's end.

guilty.

That was the only GOOD thing to come from my 3 week time of torture at KB Toys.

Damn I have a lot of points to earn so I can get the 3 games I want.

I'm sorry, but as a forum, we try not to condone or solicit fraud.
