Hiatus

I'm sure this has been asked before, but the search capabilities of the forum are not very useful in finding it.

My question is, Can I pause / suspend my Xbox Live Gold subscription for a finite amount of time? I have multiple years of XBL Gold stacked, but I will be traveling in the future and unable to use the service.

I believe I am able to cancel my subscription and received a prorated refund of the remaining time, but that seems far more cumbersome and problematic than simply pausing my subscription to automatically or manually resume at a later date.

If this is possible, please let me know how. If it is not possible, it should be added.

:)

I was thinking about getting DR3, maybe I will this weekend, I gave my black flag away, wasn't my cup of tea, I keep trying BF4,it was my favorite Shooter series all last year an the year before BF3! Just glad I didn't sell my 360 like I was planning on,
I did how ever sell all 70+ games I had..

BF4 has been working like a dream for me lately.. you should give it a try again!...also go pick up black flag and DR3 those two games you can just get lost in for hours!!

 

Hey there, unfortunately you've nailed it. There is no pausing, but you can get a refund on the time you have remaining.

If you'd like to make this as a suggestion, you can do so here:

Unfortunately if people could pause their gold, I am sure they would pause it every time they weren't online. Gold isn't currently available by the hour. And just the amount of months you buy it for. I would certainly look into getting your refund for the
time you will be unable to use it. As suggested, you could suggest it as a suggestion. But hopefully you will be back home with some more gold soon!

None the less, enjoy your travels, and hopefully with a little more spend from that refund

 

As DigitalAssassin suggested, I found a similar suggestion on the Xbox Uservoice. If anyone would like Xbox to add this option to their service, please visit

I found the idea posted on the Xbox Uservoice as DigitalAssassin suggested, but when I attempt to post a link to it, my post is auto-deleted. Strange since I'm simply linking to the official Xbox feedback site.

Regardless, if anyone else would like to see Xbox implement this feature, please visit
