    Yes you can buy a 3 month gold card to get the free games for gold.

    You do not need a credit card.

    Be sure to buy a subscription card and not a microsoft credit points card, your microsoft balance can not be used to buy gold time.

    Why is a credit card needed to download a FREE games with gold Xbox 360 Game?

    Why is a credit card needed to download a FREE games with gold Xbox 360 Game? This is the most dumb and frustrating issue for games with gold. If on a Xbox 360 you don't need a credit card so why need it on the Xbox One. Some people do not want there credit
    card on their account for one reason or another so why alienate an entire group of users? If it is free then make it free. I also tried on Xbox.com but the same result...must put in a CC on the account. Microsoft, get it together.

    Is there ANY way to get FREE games without having to enter a CC?

    Thanks

    My account was hacked - now what?

    Sure it can be hacked, someone just has to brute-force the password.

    I don't get why a credit card would be tied to my gold status if I never actually bought gold with a credit card... I used prepaid cards, I didn't even HAVE a credit card on file until about a year ago. (And I've had Xbox Live Gold since 2009)
