Microsoft: Errors made in real-world currency on Xbox 360 beta
However, the new Xbox 360 dashboard is still in its beta test period and, as with all betas, there are issues that will creep up. In this case, the company has confirmed that the conversions rates from Microsoft Points to real-world currency in some parts of the world are in error in the current beta test.
Joystiq got a statement from Microsoft, which said:
"We are aware that select regions experienced some incorrect game title pricing in the Xbox Live beta. This was an unintended error that we are in the process of fixing. We'll be reimbursing impacted beta participants for the difference in what was paid and what the price will be after the update is available to all members."
Microsoft's statement added that the company will continue to make "corrections and adjustments" to the Xbox 360 dashboard during the beta period before the update goes live to all owners of the console sometime later this year.

The is quite a big problem indeed, for those who haven't signed up to the beta best start buying the items they want before MSP retire.

Pudable I Personally don't like how they have changed it from MSP To currency now because u have to put your email and password or your bank account onto your account? what happens if you get hacked?
GF To your money
if you wanted to purchase MSP some people would do it from the xbox anyway and there has not been any breach that has compromised bank details
