when you try to sign into xbox live it should tell you when it will expire. btw what did you do get your console suspended?

There is no such thing as a temporary console ban. They are always permanent.

You have to mean that your profile is suspended.

You must have been careless to get a ban ... only know one person who got a ban, and he was very obvious in what he was doing.

Mind you he also got away with swapping his console @ j-mart.
Buy a new box, swap drives, take console back for refund, make sure you mis-spell your name on the return docket.
They never take note of the console id's - guess they "could" follow it back to the original owner, but guess thats down to microsoft as they obviously cant be bothered.

Yes there are...

I have a TWO WEEK CONSOLE ban from matchmaking... TWO WEEKS. I'm not stupid, I can read.

And it doesn't tell me my ban sentance when i sign into XBL.

Other line of attack ... report it to ur local consumer protection agency.

Will take longer than the ban, but you will get AT LEAST a 1 month gold membership. And if you then go "lost my recon as well" you never know what you can squeeze out of them.

They do cave easily ... just can take a while.
Best to get the govt agency to push the case - keeps them in a job anyway, so think of it as ur way of helping out with the GFC ;)

Stupid bans.
They forget the old "cutomers are always right" rule, and need to be reminded. If you are not meant to do something then prevent it in the first play. Its like the latest quit ban - why put a quit option in the game and then ban people for using it ??? stupid or what.

No, you get a temporary console and account ban. He's talking about Halo 3 MM bans, not XbL bans.

The only person that can tell you is Achronos. It's probably best to PM him, otherwise no-one can tell you.

I've gotten host banned but still don't understand why, I don't cheat or standby and I'm running 10 megs.

But console bans are perm.
