Gold referral but still no credits

Volga-5E42A5A9-B901-4131-8801-01371E3FA58A · Nov 16, 2017

I got my 3 month Xbox Live membership 2 months ago from the Xbox store, where I was referred by a friend to get 5000 points when I subscribed to Gold. I was supposed to get it 1 month into my membership (according to T&C), but I still got nothing.

buy gold with my referral and receive 5,000 XBL reward credits

If you are thinking about buying gold then do it with my referral as you can get 5,000 XBL reward credits. What do I get? I get 1,000 credits if you buy gold when I refer you.

Xbox Live Reward credits can be deposited into your local currency after you get 1,000. You also get exclusive offers sometimes and can get thing cheaper. There are also offers that will earn you credits like pre-ordering games. more info is here: Xbox Live Rewards

Just to make clear as I know some people get confused this is a referral to buy gold. Not to sign up to xbox live rewards.

Xbox Live rewards is free to sign up to by the way!

If you want to get some credits for XBL Rewards then comment your Xbox Gamertag and I will reply back when the referral is sent!

Use the rewards support thread.

If their account has ever had gold prior to your referral, you will receive no credits.

Hello Volga,

You can only be referred to Gold once. Since you were already referred in June 2015, you cannot get those Credits again.

In order for support to check into it for you, you'll need to post in the support section of this forum. Keep in mind that for gold referrals, it can take up to 75 days to receive the credits.

Hello MindFlayer1983,

From the FAQ:

I was referred by an Xbox Live Rewards Gold member and purchased an Xbox Live Online Gold membership. I'm also an Xbox Live Rewards member. When can I expect to receive my 5,000 Rewards Credits?

To receive your 5,000 Rewards Credits, you must join Xbox Live Rewards and upgrade your Xbox Live account to Gold Online membership within 14 days of receiving the referral and retain your Gold membership for at least 30 days. If you meet all these requirements,
Credits may take up to 45 days to be deposited into your Microsoft account.

We see that you were referred August 2nd, and that the Credits for that referral have been pending since September. You can see these pending Credits on your MyRewards page.

Hello FabricioPedrazi,

From the FAQ for this offer:

How many Rewards Credits can I earn for referring friends?

While you can only refer up to 5 friends a day, there is no limit to the number of Rewards Credits you can earn for successfully referring friends. A successful referral hinges on a referred friend(s) upgrading to an Xbox Live Online Gold membership within
14 days of receiving the referral email and signing up for Xbox Live Rewards (if they weren't already a member). Credits will be awarded once your referred friend(s) has been Gold for at least 30 days.

Since your friend referred you on January 1st, and you did not purchase a Gold subscription until February, you did not upgrade to Gold within the 14 day period of receiving the email.
