Microsoft Live Club

i've only ever seen the numbers 8-12, but I wrote an e-mail, and now they are saying it's 12 weeks to make sure you aren't a cheater, and then they will send after the 12 weeks if i'm lucky. it sucks.

e-mail for reference:

Dear Live Search Club Participant,



Thank you for contacting Live Search Club Support. After any order is placed, it is has to pass a mandatory fair game play check, as noted in our Terms and Conditions. After it passes the process, which may take 12 weeks, it will ship (unless the product is on back order, in which case it will ship as soon as it is available). When the order is shipped and assigned tracking information, you will get your 2nd confirmation e-mail.



Kind Regards,

Live Search Club Support

[ninja] i ordered the dvd camcorder in early february, it's been exactly 8 weeks now
 
I cheated back in July/August '07 and just got one of my items about a month ago - a T-shirt. Better than nothing!
 
Gah! I swear, if they don't ship until 12 weeks after you placed the order, I will have to kill someone. Well not really, but still... in the confirmation email it states that it will take approximately 12 weeks to deliver the prize, not 12 weeks to ship it.

At best I can hold out for 11 weeks and 5 days before I leave for the summer.
 
ordered the wireless desktop on 2/3/08 (about a week before it got taken off as a prize)
recieved on 4/23/08

i kept my old wired mouse and plan to buy a new wired generic keyboard

as i wont use wireless mouse for gaming....and this keyboard trys to mimic touch screen features, so its bad for gaming. i will however keep the keyboard for my daily comp use etc
 
looks funky, are those laptop style keys? shallow and... shallow? at least you got something, right?

also, why wouldn't clublive ask you if you wanted something else as replacement? i mean, i know it's free, but if they're out of something, why don't they ask you if you want something else, or even refund your tickets? seems like a viable option to me. it's probably too much to ask though

i ordered the kyboard combo...i didnt want a replacement...unless ur speaking of the people that got cams instead of their set?

the keys are shallow like a laptop...and even feel like one (i havent used a laptop in many years)

the escape... F1 ...(top row keys) are completly FLAT....(IE nothing pushes in AT ALL when the button is pushed)

its impossible to use this for gaming
 
Well, they just shipped my one ringtone that I ordered on 3/3/08.... but no sign of my 360 controller that I ordered on 2/20/08. This tells me that they just enjoy making us wait. I mean, if they verified that my points were legit and sent my ringtone then you would think that they could ship my 360 controller, but nooooooo..... not that I mind waiting, but I'm only going to be here until the 11th of this month.
 
I ordered a bunch of stuff on July 7...they just started shipping it to me at the end of march. I've received 3 things so far and I just got another email today saying they shipped a new item.

4 more items to go.

LX-3000 headset, Sony Sports Ear Buds, Behind the neck headphones, VX-6000 videocam, Wireless XBOX 360 controllers, Microsoft Laptop Tote Bag, and other things I forget.

and a zune i think hahaha
 
I just got 4 zune cases from my order 7/07.
What a suprise, I forgot about it.

Wonder if that is where my zune is too.
 
dang, that's a little longer than 12 weeks, huh?
 
dunno ust ot be big on these freebie sites, but stoped putting time into them after having trouble getting the prizes...

wut? i only got tired with webrides since they are dickholes, club live is the shit though
 
I got a Zune case last week that i ordered in October or Nov 07. I had also ordered a zune at the same time. MS zeroed out that account after i placed the order because they suspected me of cheating. I guess they finally figured out I didnt cheat. hopefully they will send the Zune also.

On another account that I had already ordered and received a Zune on, they gave me back 22,000 points.
 
cool bean, i just got a email that told me one of my order was shipped 1 of 2, no word on the other one.

but i got Flight sim instead of my heard phone...what a bummer...oh wellz but than nothing.
 
whats the deal with cheating and how do they figure you cheat if your not using a bot just wondering thanks

the bots gathered tickets at like 10 tickets every like 2 seconds, so when you get 20,000 tickets over a period of an hour, its easy for them to tell, when each game normally takes a good 3-10 minutes to complete
 
ahhh ok now ive been playing around with it yeah i am not cheating but I can type fast and using a scrabble word helper to help me on the chicken game fun site to bad they got no 360's
 
I just got SHAT on by Live club.

I ordered 3 Xbox 360 wireless controllers, which was a stupid mistake since they say they only honor 1 type of prize once (even though others have received multiple prizes of the same type), and they sent me an email (over 3 months after I ordered them) stating that I have ordered an excessive amount and that they were cancelling the orders entirely and refunding me my tickets.

The controllers used to be 2500 tickets, and now they are 5500. Now I have to use 5500 tickets for my puchase when I should have at LEAST received ONE of the controllers even if they didn;t want to honor the other 2 I ordered.

Oh well.. just ordered 1 controller.. we'll see if it shows up.
 
got my dvd camera today, it wasn't the model they had on the site (when they had it). the one i got was the samsung sc-dx103, it's still pretty cool though, i'll get use out of it with a baby on the way.
 
i just got a 2nd Zune delivered to the house.
White. Looks nice, will be a good suprise for my wife.
 
Just received an email my Webcam will be here on 6/2. I placed the order on 5/22 and it shipped 5/29. Still waiting on the bluetooth headset I ordered back in March.
 
Well, it has now been 13 weeks since I ordered a 360 controller. No sign of it or word from them. It seems like they purposely take longer on higher ticket items. I mean, I got my ringtone which I ordered after the controller in like 7 weeks, but it's been 13 weeks and I haven't gotten the controller.
 
after getting my FSX, i emailed live club about my other 2 prizes ( headset and a 360 controller) that was ordered on 2/28 this year. apparently it was back order and they just got more and those will began shipping them within the next 3 weeks.

so if you ordered around the same time, when they replaced some of the prizes, you are probably in the same board. so just hang on tight and look out for the guys in little brown shorts.
 
I somehow missed this Live thing originally. Is it even worth starting now? I got my 1000 points doing Chicktionary tonight, and just want to get a 360 Controller or Zune. How long would it take to do those now?
 
All you have to do is check the prize cost. The controllers now cost 5500 tickets, so if you got 1000 points in just one night, then it would take a little over 5 nights of play and you'll have enough to order the controller. Once it is ordered theey say it could take up to 12 weeks. My controller has been about 14 weeks now and still no sign. But I ordered mine on 2-20 so I am probably in the same boat as the person above.

I hadn't seen anything clearing up if you could only do the 1000 points once or every day with Chicktionary, but found out you could yesterday. So in another 4 days I'll be ordering my controller, which hopefully I will get.
 
Well, so far I've gotten a ZX-6000 headset, VX-3000 webcam and Flight Simulator X Deluxe.

Returned Flight Sim back to walmart with no receipt and got a $53 giftcard, and I should have a MS Office 2007 and one of those new keyboards on the way also.
 
How do you guys get so many points? I played for a bit and only got a few lol
 
I spoke too soon. The controller was shipped to me yesterday so I should have it tomorrow. They just cancellled the other 2 orders. Which kinda pisses me off since they say on their site now that you can have 3 of the same hardware.. but now the points are ddouble for the controller
 
I just ordered my controller after 5.5 days, so hopefully I will get one and receive it before 2009. :)
 
hey y'all just to tell those who doesn't get emails from live club search, there will be a double ticket day on june 11th.
