You should know, though, that there are some things that will go away. We’re talking about the Xbox gift cards purchased with Microsoft Rewards points. They have an expiration date, so whenever you’re thinking about buying one, think about it too.

This Reddit user was surprised to find out about it after they purchased the Xbox gift card. They’ve sent an email to Microsoft, asking for a refund.

What’s the expiration date for the Xbox gift cards purchased with Microsoft Rewards points?
