    Default XBox Live Gold Fail

    Can anyone get the Live Gold Deals With Gold to work? Or is it another XBox thing that doesn't work for South Africans?

    Don't you have to buy the things off your xbox? I know that's how the free game thing works.. maybe its the same?

    I get the same error here. Seems to be a technical issue on that page though. Go to the UK one: http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-GB/Pr...eals-with-gold

    And then open the links and change the url from -GB to -ZA. The deals I checked were correctly discounted on the ZA marketplace, so likely just an issue with the Deals with Gold landing page.

    I normally get the free game from the website. It's just much easier to do at work.

    Thanks Denouncer, I will go have a look. I thought that there were no games on sale for South African gold subscribers but if it's a technical difficulty maybe they will fix it one day.

    The SA website is always a little broken. You should be able to get it here

    The thread isn't about the free game. I can get to that.

    It's about the Gold Deals. But yeah the SA side is a bit broken.

    I migrated my account from SA to USA the other day. It was a move I do not regret.

    Is there more stuff? I migrated to UK a while back and I'm not disappointed either.. I think you can move every 3 months or something.. (if I remember correctly)

    ya you can migrate every three months. USA has loads and loads of stuff, think it would be very similar to the uk.

    I remember when they first enabled migration, you wouldn't be able to re download stuff you had purchased before you migrated. Is it still like that or have they sorted that out now?
