Same thing happened to me, mostly everybody is getting this problem actually. You have to wait a couple of hours to be active.

Mine is not working either, I hope it will work tomorrow after the game has been out for more than an hour or two.

I posted on another thread, but yes. It seems like its going on for everyone. I'm just going to wait until tomorrow and try it.. maybe they didn't release the download until the dashboard updates...
Or* they give you a code to hand on to until the official release in November which I hope not. I went to best buy to get this just to save the 7$ that Microsoft is charging for the robin download.
Looks like all we can do is..... wait.

you have to wait for the marketplace update which is around 6am (i believe or maybe an hour earlier)

Is it just the robin DLC having this issue? I preordered from gamestop, so I didn't get the robin dlc (obviously because that was a best buy exclusive). I got joker carnival map and some retro batman skin. Those both worked fine when I downloaded them though o_0. odd.

Funny, because on PSN, my Catwoman code did not work. Yet on Xbox LIVE, it did.
Anyway, as mentioned already and elsewhere, you need to wait for the XBLM to update. Pretty stupid, given that three of the four redeemable codes I have worked, but hey, street date is broken so I couldn't care less about one add-on.

As far as I know, Catwoman Pass will only work after official release.
That's only my saying for the German market, though.
There's currently quite a debate and forum ranting considering Batman: AC; WB apparently send out their copies to the distributors too early, thus many merchants started selling their copies last week already (Europe OR is 21.10), then WB prohibited sales until 20.10. They also said that the Catwoman Pass will only be usable when the game offically launches.
Maybe that goes for Robin as well.

Robin doesn't work for me, but Catwoman worked. However, regardless of it downloading, the game keeps saying the DLC is corrupt, and shutting down at random times. I'm not sure if the DLC didn't download right, or if something else happened, though.

For what it's worth, I was getting disconnected from Xbox LIVE, but wasn't getting the message to download the update. Happened 3 times to be exact, then it disconnected and I received the message to update.
If that is anything to go by, then it could be a bug with the game itself and updates (title update or add-ons).

Guys, the Robin DLC isn't out until November 22nd... you won't be able to download it until then. Same thing happened with Dead Island's Bloodbath DLC. You get the code with the game, but you don't get the content until it is actually on the marketplace.
Actually Nightwing will be out first on November 1st. I think both will be 560MSP if you don't have a code.

That is partially incorrect. Yes Robin is widely available to the general public for purchase on Nov 22. But the exclusive Best Buy Code is for early access to that. That was the point of getting the game at Best Buy.
BTW, all DLC exclusive will at one point be available for purchase at sometime, so don't waste money on Ebay for codes. Also the Skins are only for Challenge Maps, not the main campaign.

According to SarahMay the European Community Manager at Rocksteady here is her response "The code redemption is handled by Microsoft, sadly we have no control over it. However I have started an official thread here for people to post their problems so I can send them on to our rep at Microsoft."

Aww, man. That sucks. Now I can't gallivant across Arkham City as the animated version. Oh well, not gonna spend 400 points on skins I'll barely use.

Wow, that is quite early indeed. Good to see Rocksteady handle their shit better than Techland.
Hopefully if there are supposed to be achievements those get up before they fix the codes. :p

Well, JB hifi is the exclusive dealer in Australia for the Robin DLC and I too am having issues trying to redeem my code.

Actually, I've heard that skins are available in the campaign, but not in the first playthrough. Can only be in new game+. Unless the site I saw it at was misinformed.

The skins become usable as soon as you finish the main story line. They can be used in the free roam as well as NG+.

Having a unique problem with my DLC code. I originally inputed the code and got it to work, but cancelled the download before it finished. now the code is saying it won’t work. What should I do? T

It should be in your download history somewhere, either in the dashboard or on xbox.com - you can restart it from there.

Ha, yeah! At least the code works, kinda weird, since I almost had a mini-heart attack!

Robin came up invalid then I put in Catwoman and it worked. Then I tried Robin again and it went through. Weird.

I was having a similar problem with the robin code. But, thankfully, it's worked now.
The only thing I can think of is that the game was released 2 days earlier than expected and then 2 days later it worked.

It appears to be working now - my code was coming back as invalid earlier today, but just tried again and it let me download.

I just bought the game today from JB in Australia went home and the Catwoman DLC didn't work it was invalid. Tried Robin and it downloaded fine, it also said Robin and had his picture so the cards weren't mixed up.

I get fucked up too. Catwoman is fine and working, but Robin is always invalid.
I´ve use two different codes, none works. Can anyone tell me where to contact Rocksteady for this problem??
Also, is changing codes illegal???
