Funny, if it's such a good deal then why are people not using the plan? Now I can't speak for everyone but at least in the area I live in nobody is buying an xbox through this plan. I've worked at best buy since last october and only 2 people have bought an xbox through plan when I work.

We always get people asking about this "$99" dollar xbox but as soon as we mention that your locked into getting live at $15 a month they either laugh and leave or ask how much it would be to get it up front. Which I tell them $420 vs $460 and they opt to just save their money to buy it outright. Hell half the people who buy xbox's at the store I work at don't even have wi-fi so this plan isn't even an option.

Also last time I did one (which was a few months ago) it did require them to have a credit card and checked their credit history. The fact is when it comes to a gaming console this plan just won't work when most people don't want to pay $15 a month for 2 years for a service they may or may not use. Plus remember you have to cancel the plan after your 2 years are up otherwise it auto renews.
