Diamond Card Typo? Uh oh!

Posted Apr 6, 2006 at 8:18AM EST by QJ Staff

Ó

Someone named X SHORTY X received his Xbox Live Diamond Card today, along with some dire news! If you look, the word 'THRU' has been spelt 'TRHU'. A proud Diamond Card owner, reduced to shambles... Poor guy... I bet the GameStop clerks will make fun of him.

This is the first I've seen of this sort of thing, but it gets worse. Apparently some people have been getting cards with random numbers and letters rather than gamertags. So far we've been sent plenty of pictures and/or links to news about the Diamond Card, but nothing this unfortunate.

Microsoft says that a Diamond Card can take four to six weeks to be processed, printed, and mailed, hopefully within all that time they would be able to get it straight.

Did anyone else get something like this? Please let us know if you did!

WHY would you buy one of these? What is the point of having one in your wallet? Do you have any idea what a fool you will look like when you open your wallet and someone sees that in there? Chicks will despise you, others will laugh at you. Well hell you might as well end up in the guiness book of world records as the biggest loser of all time. But its cool... give more money to microsoft in return for something completely useless.

# Ummm, Yeah...Guest 2006-04-07 03:18
To the last comment, you don't buy these, they're free. Do some research before yapping your jaws. Just because you can't afford a 360 doesn't give you the right to start talking trash. And no I'm not some kid, I am a 29 year married male.



As for the trhu syndrome, it's the new Microsost L33T speak :)

# stupid people all overGuest 2006-04-07 03:59
I've seen thru on cards many times before.....this was completely intentional, when was the last time you saw a card fully spell through....I just looked in my wallet, I have 3 bank/credit union issued cards that say thru...intentional people, intentional.



And to ^^ you get discounts on stuff and the card is 100% free....what kind of dumbass WOULDNT get one unless they are too cheap to get xbl.
