Кланяються мені!

My friend is having issues adding a credit card to his account. He has a 3 month gold membership from a pre-paid card. I never had this problem and i still don't, but when i add the card to his, it just says "Cannot authorize payment method, please select another" WTF "other" payment method is there?? But anyways so we called xbox live. As usual we get a dumbass who can't help anybody. so now we can't play barely any MM cause xbl won't do anything. Does anybody have the slightest bit of advice so we can finaly get some time to play??!

I had this issue at one point. You have an Xbox 360, right?

I'll look into it to see if I can find what I did differently

You are trying to download the new Halo 2 maps? (Just double checking here)
Or something in marketplace? (Which was the issue I had)

I can help you with the marketplace one, but I'm not so sure on the Halo 2 Maps one... gonna check, since I believe they are free...

the main issue hes having is adding the credit card as a payment method. Every time, every card, valid indefinatly i had just put money into the CC account.

We go to accountmangement / memberships / 3 month prepaid gold membership / change payment methed. then enter the correct credit card info ( for many different ones, we all have our own personal cards, yet every one says, after we submit the info "cannot authroize payment methed, plz choose another" or somthing along those lines

ive decided for the sake of maps, im gonna recover my account to his xbox, use the credit card linked to my account and buy the maps. then delete my account from his harddrive. And vuala instant maps

HOWEVER for the sake of future downloads i would still like a solution to my issue if possible

EDIT: I successfully downloaded the new maps using my recovered account on his xbox if anybody else cannot get them this is a good idea if you know sombody with an account who is willing to lend 4 measly dollars. But im not always available so if anybody still knows a solution for future purchases help would be appreciated.

Remember to re enter the security code for the credit card. Or use a Visa Gift Card. OR wait till they're free. You have a lot of options.
