Xbox Live Rewards 5th Anniversary

Member since 12-02-10

Haven't gotten anything, would have loved to get a code as I just got my Xbox One on Black Friday. I need games.
 
Xbox Live Rewards' Twitter said that "Winners were chosen at random from our global VIP community. This is just the start of what we're giving away, though!"
 
Been a member since 2006 with some breaks here and there and got diddly squat.

[edit]

Oh wait, this is for rewards? Hmm, pretty sure I've been signed up to that since around the time Reach came out.
 
Got a $25 code. First time I have ever gotten anything. Never got the paper cake or even the 10 Microsoft points when they did that. It's nice to finally get something after having an Xbox live account for 10 years.
 
I got $25.

Been a Gold sub for 9/10 years on this account.

Been a Rewards member for ages, but I usually get very little from it as I've gone 100% digital this gen (outside of getting RotTR from Dave & Busters' tickets).

I even have an "Xbox Diamond" card for my gamertag; remember that shit? None of those businesses who were involved with that were even near me, lmao

Been a member since 12-01-2010 and didn't get anything. I don't buy enough digitally to boost that VIP rating past a Star or two. Maybe the folks they are choosing buy tons digitally?

I know I bought Forza Horizon 2, FarCry 4, Ori, Shovel Knight, Strider, Styx, Sunset Overdrive and Peggle 2 digitally. It didn't make a dent to the star system they have. lol Thats alright though.
 
Been apart of the rewards program for over 5 years almost 6, nothing here. I'm from UK so I'm not expecting anything anyways.

Edit: Or actually I guess I'm just going on 5, it must be in US date format.

Man I'd give anything to get my old Xbox 360 account back :/ but unfortunately the email tied to it is effectively dead.

You can recover accounts even tied to old emails. Do you remember the PW associated with it? Even if you don't, you can go through the steps to get it recovered. Just takes some time on the phone.
 
I've been an Xbox Live member since it was in beta and a rewards member since 12-28-2010. Got $5 today. Better than nothing, I guess.

you know why, because digital prices in the US match store prices so there has to be more online buyers, while everywhere else you go retail to save half of your money, and US superiority when it comes to microsoft and xbox stuff.

I think the rewards scheme is a good idea on paper but it's terrible when online prices are hugely inflated for a lot of regions, and that they changed rebate value from gamerscore total to how much you spend to rank up the charts, completely turning me off buying anything and bothering with rewards with gold.

Nope don't remember my password and back when they made everything account and password based (effectly locking me out of Xbox live until I got a One) I tried calling tech support multiple times but they kept asking for my account info which I only knew the email address but not the password.
 
They sent me $5.

LOL

I'm a thankful person, but darn it Microsoft...I've been using Live since the OG Xbox.

:-P

Edit** looks like the rest of us get $5.
 
I also got $5. Eh, it's better than nothing. Not like last year where I banked on over $250 worth with that gamestop summer stuff haha.
 
I'm in the US and have received nothing. I never get anything from them and I've been a live member since 2004 it's complete bs.
 
Starting to wonder if it really was random or maybe based on purchasing behavior? Nearly all of my library is digital, plus I also buy movies from the Windows Store (formerly Xbox Movies) and I have a Groove subscription.

Xbox Live and Xbox Rewards are two different things. I don't know why people come in here with the whole "I've been a live member since xxxx" thing when that has nothing to do at all with Xbox Live Rewards.
