They have fought me for three months for one month of Xbox live. The code was already used and they ask for screen shots but you never hear from them again. If they are going to rip me off for 8 dollars they won't have any problem ripping you off for larger sums of money

Poor service
March 30, 2020

100% poor customer service.

I purchased a Xbox live gold 12 month member ship code not realizing until I attempted to redeem that it was for the wrong region (not EU/UK).

In total I have received 2 emails from them, one automated confirming they will respond to me in due course and then a second generic email a day later.

In total I have sent 4-5 emails requesting a full refund under the distance regulations act and they just choose t ignore.

Im fortunate that I paid using my credit card so i've decided to go through the credit card dispute route.

Disgusting service by cdkeys and I will never use them again and would not recommended using them so beware.

No issues, received key. Had to provide my cellphone number to receive the key which I wasn't told of ahead of time. Didn't contact customer service.

Fraud
March 25, 2020

I purchased Call of Duty from this provider... It never worked continually got a please insert CD error... Tried to contact customer service and never got a response. I should have known this site was a scam when it only accepted my debit card and no other credit card. I am sure most credit cards have caught onto this scam

I bought a Fifa 20 CD PC key from CDkeys.com in October and i hadn't redeemed the code on Origin until attempting in February for the key itself to be invalid. I paid £47.99 even after sending over 5 emails for some support from CD keys i got a reply twice with the same automated email telling me stuff like check with xbox and a key linked with my account blah blah which goes to show whoever looked at my emails is stupid. Terrible customer service currently looking into taking legal action. I imagine some people have no issues with CDkeys.com my experience was absolutely terrible and after i attempt to get at least what i paid for I will never use and will tell a lot of people i know to never use it.

The First time i used cdkeys everything worked alright, the made me use skrill and it worked i got whatever i was buying.(This was in 2016)

In 2017 when i was buying a psn code, They took my money but then decide to review it before they even release my download, I then get told i need to send in my bank card picture with the date and time written on a piece of paper! This is completely bizarre. - never before have any reputable company asked for this kind of information. I do that.(Should have known better)
A few months later skrill stops working on their site and i am now forced to use paypal(Ok),
In 2018 when i was buying a code from their site using paypal, after checking out i got this message: "Your payment was declined by the payment processor" but they took my money from my card but i NEVER got the code, 2 weeks the same amount is deducted from my card for the same purchase, i was smart enough and i called my bank and alerted them of this situation and they cancelled my card and i filled a form which they would use to get the money back for me, the process took like 3 weeks and i got my money back

After that i got a new card(Debit card)

From this point i set paypal to use "paypal balance" as the first choice of payment t, then my card
2 months later i tied to buy a code from cdkeys once again(just a test) and this is the message i get: "Your payment was declined by the payment processor".

So the story is: this site will use your personal information to steal money from your acount(if you use a debit card), NEVER give your personal info to sites that ask you to send a photo of your id / passport and written paperof text of their site

Worst customer service!
February 11, 2020

Order process was fine. However I made a mistake with the email address I had used. I reached out to get some help with this and in 2 days time only received 1 reply. They requested me to send a picture of my cc, which I immediately did. After a few more reminders I gave up.
Hopeless customer service, definitely don't recommend for anyone to do business here.

Really poor experience using this company. Purchased GTA for the PC, 2 of the files would not download. Spoke to them about it and they said my PC was faulty and that i had to speak to Rockstar (GTA) about it. We did and after 4 hours they couldn't help us.

Went back to CD keys and they will not refund despite sending a faulty game. Bunch of scammers will never touch these again and i would advise anyone considering using them gives them a wide birth. Just pay a bit more and use a reputable company.

SCAM!
January 6, 2020

I haven't ordered anything from them for years, on new years day I got a notification from paypal that I got charged 96 from cdkeys using paypal express. Logged in and changed the password immediately.
Contacted support and they answered after 4 days that the confirmation email with the codes was sent to my email address (that's a lie!) They cant do anything, and that I should contact paypal. Paypal denied the refund, since it was "not unauthorized". Did a formal complaint, but that will probably take a long time.
Warning! Do not use paypal express with this site!

Scammers!
December 13, 2019

Bought two codes for my son. The second Dark Vertex did not work, already redeemed. They've asked me to try the code again and contact Microsoft - complete nonsense. I've asked for a valid code or a refund but never heard from them again. I've taken it with paypal and waiting for a resolution. Will never buy from them again!

Fraudulent Company
November 28, 2019

They knowingly sold me a old destiney 2 key for blizzard when you can no longer redeem it.
I did not know this and used it on blizzard and tried to transfer it over to steam and could not.
When i emailed them they told me the key had be used and i could not get a refund.
They sold me a product you cant us. How the heck am i at fault.

Beware of this company fraudulent behavior.

Ordered a key, they blocked my order, demanded pictures of my credit cards and IDs and after providing them, they rejected my order without providing a reason. I got no refund either. All of this just because i used a Revolut virtual card.

Proof of purchase added.

Reddit is full of reports of these scammer scum demanding pictures of people's credit cards and IDs. That is one thing, but rejecting an order after providing said pictures is the lowest of the low and the absolute worst purchase experience ever.

Lost money, time and got no key either. Trash site.

AVOID THESE SCAMMERS!
October 15, 2019

Purchased 3x Xbox Gamepass codes from them but could only redeem 1 of 3. Turns out they are selling trial codes which are limited to 1 per account. This is misleading as they don't mention this anywhere on the product page.

CDKeys wouldn't reply to support requests whatsoever. After posting on Trustpilot, they've been in contact through the site and promised a partial refund.

It has been 2 weeks now since they claimed to have issued a partial refund. I have not received anything. So not only was their product page misleading, their "support staff" are straight up frauds. When all goes well they often have great prices but if you ever need support (and you will) they WILL scam you. It's actually quite clever.

So my advice.

AVOID THESE SCAMMERS!

On 07/10 i bought a code for fifapoints it was already used. I messaged to the support of ea they said the code was used on another account. Tried to reach them via email, twitter, messenger, the site thrustpilot. The only thing i got is an automatic response. It is just impossible to reach them i am still waiting for a single response i tried everything. I am sure they just scam people sometimes for money.

I ordered a key from cdkeys.com and they sent me a legitimate key. I didn't know this though, I thought I'd been ripped off. The problem was that the key could not be activated via blizzard.net. You actually need to download their new stupid steam-like app in order to run the game I bought. So, I owe CDKeys.com an apology and I should be more wary of games produced by blizzard.

This website is scamming you for your personal info! In the ordering process, they ask for your phone number (requires phone verification), real address (they will know if you use VPN). Once I've made my order, I've received an email that my order needs to be further approved and that was followed by another email, asking me to photograph my credit card along with time and date, so now they have that piece of information as well. In the end, in yet another email they've decided NOT to approve my order by writing the following: "Unfortunately, the review team rejected your order. So as not to inconvenience you any further, I can confirm that your order has now been cancelled and the transaction voided/refunded." I've used plenty of similar websites before, but this many privacy violations are one big giant red flag. Stay away.

Bought a cd key for three kingdoms, recieved straight away and immediately typed into steam to find out it had already been registered/used and invalid. Steam confirmed time/date that the key was registered, this was BEFORE I bought the key. Sent evidence to CD keys (my reciept and steams message) they were not interested and insisted key was not used (despite evidence) they are refusing to refund or give me a key that is valid! Basically sold me a invalid key that is already used, will let paypal and my bank sort now. Ill stick buying direct from Steam... lesson learnt
