    Cancelled the Xbox Live Gold automatic renewal but... it got renewed anyway


    In January 7th I accepted an offer consisting of 1 month of Xbox Live Gold for just 1 euro, and the same day I cancelled the automatic renewal of the subscription, but today, February 7th, it got renewed anyway, despite my actions.

    I contacted Xbox via help chat and they didn't offer me a solution, they just said it's not refundable. I'm 100% positive that I cancelled the automatic renewal through the Xbox One itself, but it appears that "the system" kept it active anyway, so now I'm
    going to have to pay 6,99 € for this month subscription that I not only didn't want, but explicitly asked for non-renewal.

    What can I do? Can I just use Paypal to return the charge? I don't want to become a debtor and be banned.

    :)

    How to Turn off auto renewal or cancel Xbox LIVE membership

    How to turn off auto renewal

    It is recommended that you cancel your Xbox LIVE Gold Membership using the option of turning off automatic renewal. If auto renewal is "off", your membership will expire at the end of its current term.

    Steps to follow:

    1) If you are not already signed in, click Sign In at the upper right hand corner and sign in using your Microsoft account.

    2) Proceed to My Account.

    3) Click Change next to automatic renewal. Change the setting to OFF

    You will be able to continue enjoying all the benefits of Xbox LIVE Gold Membership until your paid membership time expires.

    Note:

    If you want to cancel or disable your Xbox LIVE Gold Membership immediately, you should contact Xbox support. Use the Request a Call from Support option on the official Xbox Contact Us page. Your account cannot be canceled through chat or email.

    If you disable your account immediately, you will lose the time remaining on your membership subscription.

    If you are on a 2 Year Xbox LIVE Gold Contract, and you want to cancel before the end of the 2 years, you will be charged an Early Termination Fee and other applicable taxes. Once the two-year agreement period is over, your account will not be renewed automatically.

    You can cancel the 2 Year Xbox LIVE Gold Contract using the option of self-cancel your subscription on Xbox.com

    Xbox Live hard to cancel

    I got a deal when I set up my new profile on a 3 month subscription to Xbox Live. I paid $9.99 for 3 months. Then I forgot to cancel it and they automatically charged my card. I just figured out how to remove the automatic renewal but I have a charge pending for another 3 months. It is so hard to cancel a subscription.

    The recommended option for canceling your Xbox LIVE Gold Membership is to turn off automatic renewal. With automatic renewal “off,” your membership will expire at the end of its term. To do this:

    Go to My Account.

    Click Sign In (upper-right corner) and type your Windows Live ID information (if you’re not already signed in).

    Next to Automatic Renewal, click Change.

    Change your automatic renewal setting to OFF.

    Important: If you turn off auto-renewal, your Xbox LIVE Gold Membership will expire at the end of your paid membership time. Until then, you can continue to enjoy all the benefits of Xbox LIVE membership.

    Note: If you would like to immediately cancel/disable your Xbox LIVE Gold Membership, please contact Xbox Support using the Assistance information at the bottom of this page. From the contact us page, use the Request a Call from Support option. You cannot
    cancel your account through chat or email. Immediately disabling your account will forfeit the remaining time on your membership.

    Note If you are on a 2 Year Xbox LIVE Gold Contract, and it is before the end of the two years, you are effectively canceling the subscription and will be charged an Early Termination Fee and any applicable taxes. At the end of your two-year agreement, your
    account will not be renewed automatically. Auto-renewal is not activated to renew your subscription when
