360 or original xbox? I had the same trouble last weekend and the guy on the support line was no help at all. I eventually logged in on one of my old GT's so I got my xbl fix while my 360 is vacationing in Texas. Are you trying to use a 48 hour card by any chance? and Did it ask you for an email address before you got the message?

I am using an original xbox but with a 360 gold card. I know that the card is not the problem though.
EDIT: it is a 1 month card

Well I never figured it out but my old account that I migrated to the 360 was still on there and still worked so I've been playing it. If you figure out what is wrong, post it here so I'll know myself. I was trying to create one with a 48 hour card that came with Crackdown.

I looked on some other threads but they were no help. I'll just wait for microsoft to get their act together.

360 cards don't work w/ originals. Need a credit card on file for an XBL account on the original which means you need to go to Xbox.com and take care of that. They'll give you the code you need.

360 cards work with the originals.
