    Adding an additional xbox one to an existing gold account so there are two linked to it


    Hello folks. I have my own Xbox one with a gold account. My 9 year old son is getting his own xbox one for Christmas and I would like to know if I can add his xbox one to MY gold account.

    All the threads I can find seem to say you can do it on the SAME xbox one but nothing about different ones. He just wants to play his friends on line.

    I have now spent ages with X box one support and they have been useless so I thought that I would give the community a go - usually where the experts are!

    Thank you for any help or advice you can give or any links you can point me to.

    :)

    Whats the deal Xbox 360 and Xbox One Live account, is the account a combined account or separate per console type?

    Will I be able to access my existing live account across the two different platforms? Or am I going to be required to create an additional account for my Xbox One?

    Family Pack X-box live queries?

    Yes, it's possible:



    Q: Can I add existing Xbox LIVE Gold members to my Family Pack? For example, my kids are already Xbox LIVE Gold members.

    A: Yes. When an existing Xbox LIVE Gold member is added to a Family Pack, the remaining time on their Gold membership benefits the whole family! For every two months remaining on their current Gold membership, the entire family receives an extra month of
    Xbox LIVE Gold. For example, if your child has six months remaining on their existing Xbox LIVE Gold membership, when you add him/her to your Family Pack, all four of the individual Xbox LIVE Gold accounts available in your Family Pack will be extended by
    an additional three months. If you have two children who have four and six months of Gold remaining, respectively, on their existing Xbox LIVE Gold subscriptions, all four of the individual Xbox LIVE Gold accounts available in your Family Pack will be extended
    by an additional five months.

    You would need to set his console as your Home console in order to share your gold. My Home Xbox Setting on Xbox One | Share Your Xbox One

    You can still access your gold on your console as long as You're signed into Live. However, if there are any other accounts in your family that are using your console, they will no longer have access to your gold.

    Account with gold status for two consoles

    I have an xbox 360 console, I plan to buy an xbox one s console, while continuing to use the xbox 360. Can I use an existing account on these two consoles?
    Is it possible to use one gold status equally on two consoles?

    Response:

    Hi there,

    a gold subscription is linked to the Xbox Live Account, which means that if you use the same Xbox Live Account on the Xbox One console then the gold subscription etc will be available, same for any other digitally owned games (that are supported
    on the Xbox One)

    Redeeming 1 Month code for Xbox Live

    Also for a little more info on the prize. Nowhere does it stipulate that you cannot use the One Month Code with an existing Microsoft Account Which already has Gold. When looking at the xbox.com/usagerules , No where does it state that a "Xbox LIVE Prepaid
    1 month Gold Membership Card." cannot be added to an existing gold account.
