Logging on to play some Street Fighter 4 after a hard day of work. Oh hey, my Gold subscription is up today. No biggie, I renew you!

Couple minutes later, restart the box. Yay, I am Gold again. Open up SF4. Why yes, I do want to play some online ranked matches, thank y-- wait. I can't? Why the hell not? Look at my profile here on the blades, it even says I'm Gold right-- well that's odd. Silver? Let me get back to the desktop and set this straight.

Hey, it's Gold here. Maybe it was just a hiccup. OK, those streets aren't going to fight themselves! Let me just check my blades before I go in... yep, Gold here too. Restart the game aaaaaand... Silver.

WHAT THE FUCK.

    Probably some kind of delay...give it a few hours.

    How inconvenient.

    I tried calling Microsoft and they told me I need to recover my GamerTag. It's loading now (and taking forever). Have any of you ever had to recover after renewing?

    OK, recovering worked. Thanks and sorry for opening the thread before the obvious.

    Heh, I almost burst a vein when I booted up my xbox after a month of non-use only to find my XBL account was invalid.

    After 30 minutes of raging I tried recovering my gamer tag and it worked.

    I was then raging for another 30 minutes looking for the game I wanted to play. :P
