    Well I got my money today, the issue was the address on file with Microsoft from way back when I started paying for my hotmail account. That address didn't match PayPal or the address listed with Live.com so they kept denying payment. I updated the address with hotmail billing and presto, money received.

    It isn't a scam but it sure isn't easy or friendly.

    Me too. They just keep trickling in, a couple at a time. It's pretty nice having money show up in my Paypal account every day without having to do anything to earn it. I kind of feel like a landlord.

    I got back about $600 from CB, but they were not instant!
    However, when the CB go up, the sellers also raise their price higher.

    Use the search term "Xbox" on Live.com, and change your search when you get to eBay.

    Both iPod and Xbox work, but it takes a few refreshes. I wish it would go up to 30% for at least a day.

    I need it to hit like 20% then I can get myself that Nikon 18-200mm VR lens I need for my DSLR.

    I was upset that I did not get it when it was 30% back in the day.

    lol, i'd get an SLR, another laptop, a tv, and go broke xD


    on that note, is there an overall cashback limit? because last time it was 30% i got like a total of $200 back, so is there a restriction to the total i can get now?
