    New family memberships

    MS have said that all xbox live memberships for xbox one will be family memberships.



    Does anyone know if it will be the same on the 360?

    Xbox live family pack and pro-rated discount

    Hi. I have 2 xbox live memberships with 10 months each left on them. If I buy a xbox live family pack (4 memberships), will I get a pro-rated discount for each one?

    Thanks.

    Family Memberships for Xbox Live Gold?

    Family subscriptions ended a few years ago. If you're using a 360, each account needs their own gold. If you're using the One you can share gold by using the Home setting.

    Until you add them to your Gold Family Pack, "Gamertag" will not have access to any Gold Family Pack features.

    Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack membership

    Although your existing Xbox LIVE Gold membership will work in the new region as long as it’s supported there (see the previous section, “Xbox LIVE Gold Membership,” for more information), the associated Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack memberships will remain
    active but might not work like they should.

    Even if these memberships stop working, if you have recurring billing, you’ll continue to be charged for your Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack memberships until you cancel at your My account page.

    If Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack memberships are available in your new region, you can start a new membership once you’ve changed regions.

    If you have trouble canceling your subscription online, contact Xbox Support.



    i think this applies to everyone who is already in the family membership not someone who transfers regions



    if you had created the family membership and not added someone this may apply you will have to contact support as this is a new tool

    my family received 8 3-month gold memberships as gifts. can these be combined to buy a family membership?

    Hey there! Your question is explained on the FAQ page:

    Gold Family Pack discounts and membership extensions

    If you currently have an Xbox LIVE Gold Membership, you will get a discount on your Gold Family Pack membership based on how many months remain on your existing Gold Membership.

    The discount varies by region, and is calculated by first taking the price of an Xbox LIVE Gold 12-month membership divided by 12 months (Gold monthly rate). The Gold Family Pack discount that you receive is the Gold monthly rate, multiplied by the number
    of months left on your existing Gold membership (rounded up to the next full month), then subtracted from your purchase price.

    Note Your Gold Family Pack membership starts on date of your purchase. Your credit card is charged immediately, after any discounts are applied.

    Do I get a discount when I add existing Xbox Gold members to my Family Pack?

    Yes. When an existing Xbox LIVE Gold member is added to a Family Pack, remaining membership time is added to the Family Pack membership. 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 his or her existing Xbox LIVE Gold membership, when you add him or her to your Family Pack, your Family Pack membership is extended by three months."

    xbox live family question

    Hey there Ignite!

    Karachi is correct. For more information, check out our
    FAQ: Xbox Live Gold Family Pack Conversion to Individual Memberships.

    And remember that while the Family Plan is going away for the Xbox 360, Xbox One has a very cool new feature called Home Gold:

    Any accounts in an Xbox Live Gold Family Pack are being converted to individual Xbox Live Gold memberships to prepare for new and exciting upcoming benefits and features on Xbox Live Gold. Through the new Home Gold feature, a single Xbox Live Gold
    membership allows anyone in your home to enjoy many Gold features, like multiplayer, access to Gold entertainment apps, and more on your Xbox One.
    I hope this helps clear things up. =)

    Hello

    You can easily convert an existing Xbox LIVE Gold membership, or you can sign up for a new Xbox LIVE account and Gold Family Pack membership.

    How do I convert an existing Xbox LIVE Gold Membership?

    When you switch your membership to a Gold Family Pack membership, all content, Microsoft Points, scores, and achievements associated with your gamertag are preserved. Here's how to do it.

    Notes

    • To sign up for a Gold Family Pack membership, you must be of adult age in your country (18 or older in the United States). The legal adult age varies by country and region.
    • If you’re on the Xbox 360 Entertainment For All Plan, you’re not eligible for a Family Pack for the life of the Plan.
    1. Sign in to the Xbox LIVE account that you want to be the primary account holder for your Gold Family membership.
    2. Go to Settings, and then select Account.
