Free Xbox 360 Games - This is legit

I know we have some gamers on here so I thought I'd let you in on my latest favorite thing.

Ok, as always I'm not going to go into a bunch of detail in here and make this look all spammy, but basically I was referred to a site a few months back by a friend who got free Xbox 360 games from it. I didn't buy it, but did some research on it and decided it looked legit. I finally gave in and signed up and completed the offers (basically free trials, though I had to pay shipping on one) necessary to get a free game and got it (Rainbow Six Vegas 2).

You only have to do 2 offers to get a game. That's the best on the net. Again, I guarantee this works. PM me if you want a step by step on how to sign up.

So if you're interested either sign up through my link to help me out, or PM me for more info on how it all works (or both).

I paid $4.83 for the Rainbow Six after it was all said and done.

My referral link
YourFree360games.com

As long as you sign up for the free trials and cancel in time you're only out like $0-$10 for a brand new $60 game. I assume they make their money off people who forget to cancel their free trials.

Like I said PM me for more info if you're interested. I wouldn't spam up the forum like this if I hadn't received a "free" game already.

Even if you don't sign up through my link I'll still answer any questions you have about how it works. I'm down with helping anyone get "free" or cheap games.



4/10/08
Got Rainbow Six Vegas 2 in the mail - 8 days after ordering it.



**UPDATE**
I'm now waiting on my 6th game from this site after spending about $23 total for $420 worth of games, etc...
Rainbow Six Vegas 2, Guitar Hero 3 with wireless guitar (I got two of these), FIFA 08, Rock Band game, Rock Band Drums.

Here are the offers that I have done and can recommend so far as well as the important info that goes along with them for cancellation etc.

Stamps.com
Cost: $0
Trial Duration: 28 days
Cancellation Number: 1-888-434-0055
Hours: M-F 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM PST
Special Notes: Must install software to receive credit (I didn't install anything, but some people had to install it to get credit, I just downloaded the software). You may receive a $14.95 bill on your credit card statement. This is an authorization charge, and will go away in a couple days. It is used to make sure the credit card is valid. I cancelled this one and was charged nothing.

Got Voice
Cost: Free
Trial Duration: 14 days
Cancellation Number: Cancel Online. Login, go to My Account, Options, then Account Settings.
Hours: ????
Special Notes: Be sure to cancel a couple of days before the trial ends. They have a weird clause in the T&C saying you have to give them "reasonable time" to cancel and if it spills out of the free trial they'll charge you. Just play it safe: 10 days. Also, don't use your cell phone for this offer. It requires a phone number. I gave my home number, marked it as residential, then SBC residential, and made up a 4 digit pin. I got an email saying the service wouldn't work for me, but still got a credit for it on the games site.

Increase My Margin
Cost: $1.95
Trial Duration: 14 days
Cancellation Number: 1-800-497-4988
Hours: M-F 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM PST
Special Notes: Same company as eAuction, yahoo success center, and Quickbooks. Must use a different credit card for future offers from this company!

eAuction
Cost: $1.95
Trial Duration: 14 days
Cancellation Number: 1-800-497-4988
Hours: M-F 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM PST
Special Notes: Same company as Increase My Margin, Yahoo Success Center, and Quickbooks. Must use a different credit card for future offers from this company!

Quickbooks Quick Start
Cost: $1.95
Trial Duration: 14 days
Cancellation Number: 1-800-497-4988
Hours: M-F 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM PST
Special Notes: Same company as eAuction, Yahoo Success Center, and Increase My Margin. Must use a different credit card for future offers from this company!

Yahoo Success Center
Cost: $1.95
Trial Duration: 14 days (read the Special Notes section!)
Cancellation Number: 1-800-497-4988
Hours: M-F 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM PST
Special Notes: Same company as eAuction, Increase My Margin, and Quickbooks. Must use a different credit card if you already completed offers from this company! Also, you will be billed on the 13th day, so MAKE SURE you cancel before that happens!

Consumer Direct
Cost: $1
Credited: Instant
Trial Duration: You must cancel within 5 days if you don't want to be charged.
Cancellation: (866) 914-8906
Hours: 24/7

Identity Sweep 360
Cost: $2.95
Trial Duration: 30 days
Cancellation Number: 1-800-511-9165
Hours: 24/7

Rising Star Learning
Cost: $4.83 Shipping and Handling for them to send it to you. Then I cancelled and it cost me about $1.50 to ship it back.
Trial Duration: 10 days (read the Special Notes section!)
Cancellation Number: 1-866-441-8416
Hours: I didn't check, but assume normal business hours.
Special Notes: You can't just ship it back to them, you have to call the number above and tell them you want to cancel. They will give you an RMA # to write on the outside of the box ("prominently") and then ship it back. A few days after shipping it to them I got an email confirmation of cancellation. I called them on day 7 to cancel.


And finally here is a screen capture of my membership page...you can see the offers I've done, and the games I've received. The Rock Band drums aren't on the list yet since I just ordered them and they haven't shipped yet.

Re: Free Xbox 360 Games - This is legit

Just out of curiosity what kind of personal information are you providing to these companies? More importantly what are these companies doing or plan to do with your information?

Re: Free Xbox 360 Games - This is legit

The only information that is actually mine is my name....the companies you do these offers for let the game site know that you were referred by them and you get the credit for it.

I use a false address and phone number (that I keep on file for when I cancel, so as not to forget it). To make sure I don't get tons of junk mail or phone calls.

Don't worry, I'm not giving out valuable personal info, not willing to risk my identity for some video games.

Re: Free Xbox 360 Games - This is legit

Get your facts straight before coming in and bombing on my thread August. That snopes article isn't even about the offer I posted. It's about an email scam, COMPLETELY DIFFERENT and UNRELATED.

You linked to a snopes.com article about an email claiming that "prize bounty" is giving away free xboxes.

I know nothing about that at all.

I am not forwarding an email here at all. This was my friend who referred me to something entirely different that what you are referring to. He referred me to it in person after showing me the games that he received.

The company that runs the site I linked here is Trainn aka Transcendent Innovations. NOT Prize Bounty.

Basically you've come in here and called me a liar. I PERSONALLY received 5 games already with 1 more on the way. I said that above and showed a picture of the first one I received with the packing info from amazon (they order the games through amazon and have them sent to you. I also provided a screen capture of my membership page...get over your personal vendetta against me August.

I think it's downright rude and irresponsible of you to come in here and indirectly accuse me of lying while linking to something entirely different from what I am representing.

Re: Free Xbox 360 Games - This is legit

And further proof....

Here is Rock Band when it came to me today before starting this thread....

THE BOX




OPENED




PACKING SLIP



GAME WITH GIFT RECEIPT




AND WHO IS IT FROM? Transcendent Innovations aka Trainn who runs the website I linked to in the original post.



Check that against all that I've said, all the info on the website that shows you it is run by Transcendent Innovations (Trainn) and my membership page from the first post showing that I ordered the game (from the site) on May 20th, then the Amazon receipt that shows that the amazon order was made May 21st.

IT IS LEGIT. I really don't even care if people sign up under my referral link or not. Just wanted to give them the opportunity to get free stuff.

Re: Free Xbox 360 Games - This is legit

Well friend, .. if I got it wrong then I got it wrong.. you found out pretty easy that SNOPES wasn't talking about the same exact thing... so I don't think it would be hard for anyone really interested to do the same.
.
Nice note when you slammed my rep:
.
"You have to actually know what you're talking about before you say something. Be more responsible August. Don't link to something entirely different in an attempt to disprove something that I know firsthand is true."
.
Maybe I should knee-jerk slam your rep! but who cares? .. absolutely nobody except you.
.
Good luck with your (not a) scam!
.
Have a great day.

Returning an old favor.

Couldn't care less about my rep either.

Plus, the rep was justified. You need to be more responsible when you try and disprove something with facts relating to something else.
