I wonder....can you change your credit card info after you've signed up on XBL?

If so, you might go that route. See if someone would let you use their card # 'til you got yours. :confused:

Actually, thrAsher...my initial credit card expired and my Live wouldn't work...until I updated it with my newly released credit card...so, I would say, likely not.

I'm not sure what you're saying here Maxy. Seems to me he's just suggesting putting one CC# in, then when the new CC arrives, just going into billing and entering info for the new card.

I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work. I was canceling the CC I had originally put on my account during the 1st year. Before I did that, I put in the info for my Visa/Debit card. No problems whatsoever.

I have some trial memebership cards that can tide you over.. They last for a couple months so just go get the kit with the headset and I can PM you the code and stuff on the card... PM ME
