Just Cancelled Live... and he laughed at me..

gord · 29 Apr 2006 at 13:15

Well, just downgraded my xbox live account to silver. Went through the old options quite painlessly. Naturally, its a rather accented chap, but i can actually understand him so everythings fine.

I get all the questions to make sure its me.. and then.. he starts laughing.. which got me going because some Indian type chap on the other end having a good old laugh i found quite amusing.. anyway, ended up id set my secret question quite.. interestingly..

Back in the day of Hotmail, you could change peoples passwords be cracking their secret question.. so i used the same philosophy for my xbox live question, which he read out to be "HaHa.. your not gonna get my xbox live account you xbox heads"..

Overall, it was quite the interesting phone call.. but really, trouble free, as opposed to a lot of the cancel nightmare stories.

None of you are safe.

I am already back at uni indeed, and although i can access the dash, cant connect to other people.. so theres no need for gold..

I used to work for an ISP and I had a user whos secret question was "Why are you such a star out the complete swear word or your suspension will be longer next time - Davey".

It was a most awkward moment.

Yeah, Uni is a bast for Live and all that. I didn't even have internet in my halls last year.

I had a similar problem when i had a *shudder* CompuServe account when i was about 15 and my adolescent Q was "how long is my (ahem) sock" which sucked cos my answer was "10ft!! BABY" which i had to relay in full to a completely humourless dude over the phone when the con died.
