bruser_inc Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Bought the new Halo 2 maps on my 360. Needed a credit card to buy them, and I don't want that info sitting on my system for anyone who plays my system to see. Plus, I really don't really want the card up for myself for I don't buy Arcade games all the time. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just cancel that card, get a new one, and buy the MS points either at retail stores, or from Amazon.com that's a hell of alot safer.

I'm sorry I don't understand that last comment. Care to explain it? If it helps I didn't realize you can't buy Halo maps with MS points...I don't have Halo.

ubersaurus Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Frankie over at the Bungie site recommended buying a little prepaid card for like 5 bucks or so, and using that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also get 1-time use credit cards for use on the internet for things like this. Use em once and they expire instantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 I found this on other forums: To remove any credit card details you have to phone M$ and ask them to remove your CC details, there is no other way to remove them from your 360 account, as for everything else you can just delete them from the system blade. Http://billing.microsoft.com - Sign in with your Passport info. It still keeps the "record" of your card as being removed on your account, but it will no longer show up under "methods of payment" on your console. I've done this myself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If that doesn't work, he should just call them, ask for the billing department, and tell them to cancel the account. Canceling the account does not cancel or delete a profile (AKA Gamertag), it just removes the billing data. Not sure if either of these will help you. I haven't ever tried to remove a CC from my profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmOneGarand Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 (edited) You can't because microsoft likes to make everything hard to do, you have to call customer services to get that info erased from your account, if your using your .net passport profile it's saved to that so it's kinda a pain in the ass :/ Edited April 21, 2007 by EmOneGarand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone doesn't feel safe with their CC info on the Xbox, or anywhere else on the internet than just cancel out that card. Seems like common sense to me, but apparently was taken as an asshole suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
