You might want to be careful now though as apparently MS has started distributing region locked Live codes, making them on par with MS Points. If you're looking at one of these card sites ensure that they are still stocking the region-free cards and the one you order is definitely region free so that you don't get burnt (although I'm fairly sure they would make it clear enough on the site).
If you feel you'd be better off with an Australian based site then Gamecard.com.au is probably the best option.
1 Month - AUD$12.95
3 Months - AUD$25.95
12 Months - AUD$53.95
There are also coupons you can get from their Twitter account which can make it even cheaper. At the moment it is $2 off 12 Month Live Subscriptions by using the code "itstimetoplay".

It doesn't include the official Microsoft locations (xbox.com and via the dash)? Maybe the title should be renamed to third party locations for MS subs then?
You can also get it from dstore.com.au (although it's a bit pricey), sometimes they have a free postage days and you can be lucky.

I've used Maximus for years (they used to be called something else but changed to Maximus when they started offering Wii/PSN stuff). Awesome.

Sorry dude, didn't see your message till now.
I paid with credit card at, like, 9pm or something. Checked email next morning at around 11 and it was there. Not too sure on the bank transfer, but I’m guessing you should already have your code by now. All good, yeah?

^Sorry for the late reply, I had a busy week.
Unless you could find a good sale, most of the time, it is much cheaper to get Codes in the dashboard.
Microsoft Points (MSP) straight from Microsoft is $1.65/100 MSP. This means to have a save, a 1500 card needs to be below $24.75.
RRP is $29.95 (around $2/100 MSP)
EB sells in RRP
JB is having a sale on it for $27.99
Gamecard.com.au sells it for $26.95 (or 3000 Points for $52.95)
Edit - Look below

Actually RRP is $24.95 which is the price GAME sell points for retail wise.
JB and EB sell points at a premium, which EB wanting a premium of $5 per 1500 points (so $59.95 for a 3000 point card)

Please, oh please, introduce a metered Xbox Live subscription, rather than a yearly/monthly membership. Would be great for those who very rarely game online.

Would be great but it isn't going to happen.. MS is out to make every cent they can. I still gotta renew mine i have been on silver for ages but tbh i've been using the PC and psn more.. poor enough as it is without spending on xbox live.
