Anyone else get their code and when trying to redeem you get an error?
Never been from such a high when I saw the message from xbox live to such a low when it's yet another error.

Ah well.

Edit: Entering the code on Xbox.com works, enter it there > go to xbox > My Games & Apps > Ready to Install > Install.
Thanks Morpheus183 & Speedman100 for the tip!

I had the same problem when I tried to redeem the code through the "redeem code" link on xbox.com with a copy and paste. I then just clicked directly on the message containing the redeem code and it brought up a separate "purchase" for the pre-paid code which worked. It is downloading now.

Give it a try.

Could be an Xbox Issue, 343 don't flick the switch. They do.

Again, don't type the code in.

Go here:
Xbox.com > My Xbox > Messages > Click on the redeem code in the message
It should then bring up a pre-paid code "purchase" screen. Once this completes then you can access from your ready to install queue.

Good luck.
