My moms credit card expired and she got a new one, same number just a different expiratory date, but xbox live won't let me either update the old one or add the new one. This shouldn't be this hard Microsoft.
Does anyone know how I change this?

You have to go through the xbox.com website to do it. I tried doing it from the dashboard, and it just looped me back to the first page.

Did you know? Microsoft now IP blocks credit cards depending on country of origin. Expats screwed again! That'll teach us to leave the country

:lol
putting CC info in to Live

Using mom's CC.
I'm only 19 and just haven't gotten my own yet.

No, I have the little pamphlet to fill out sitting on my desk. I just didn't qualify for the one I wanted until I had been working 6 months and had made a certain amount.
-
uh, you could have just gotten a debit card long ago.
-
Wait, you're fucking 19? You look ten years older.

Why is everyone on his ass for not being X age or having Y number of credit cards? Big deal.
And my mom's credit card is still my primary LIVE signup thingy since I got it when I was 15 or 16 and didn't know it was a bad idea to resub using credit. I'm paid through 2010 using discounted cards so I'm not worried about it yet.

Don't use your (or your mom's) CC info on XBL. They will just autobill you forever for the max going rate.
Take your mom's card to a store and buy XBL there. You usually can get 13 months and if you're patient you can find a sale. Either way, at least you don't have to remember to cancel and they won't REMIND YOU YOU DIDN'T CANCEL WITH A $50 CHARGE.
