Comment Microsoft sucks... (Score 1) 379
Microsoft closed my "Gold" membership live account quite a few years back because they had problems billing my credit card. When I called to get things resolved their response was "the account is closed". I asked them to re-enable the account but they refused. To access my saved game data I was told to boot my console with no internet connectivity and I'd be able to access old content again.
Now, with game licenses being bound to the account, people will lose a lot more than a friends list, saved game data and achievements. You will lose the licenses you own.
Their policies have ruined them for me and others with similar experiences.
Microsoft can go to hell!
