  1. How do i get my game back? & understand the new gold for gold.


    so I've been informed you now have to have gold to play the free games you earned. However I'm still able to play some of them. Care to explain?

    Also, i lost a game through this. A game I've purchased years ago. It also allows me to own the Xbox one version as well. While i was trying to figure out this new games for gold, i had uninstalled my game. I tried to recover it, but it wants me to buy it
    again. Do i have to boot up my 360 just to download it from there and recover both versions from that?

    Is this a glitch? Am i being played? What going on?

    :)

    I am new to Xbox One games with gold and just had a quick question...

    I am a gold member, if I let my gold account run out, I understand I can't play this game any longer (like PSN) however, will the game become playable again if I re subscribe, or do you lose it if you let your membership lapse? (I mean when the game is no longer on Games with gold)

    Thanks very much!

  3. How do i get my 1 month free trial?

    The gold trial is only available during account creation.

    It looks like you will have to create a new profile to avail of it

    360 games can be played with or without gold. One games require that you have a gold subscription in order to keep playing them for free.

    As far as the other game, if it's a backwards compatible game, it should be in your ready to install section of your games and apps.

    Not recognizing I had Xbox Live Gold in Jan 2018

    Thanks, XBLRewards3 for responding to my previous thread and sending me my missing credits. But you closed the thread before I asked a follow up. I appreciate that I am getting my missing money but Xbox Live Rewards is still saying I am not Gold. What will
    happen when I get my Feb deposit in March? Is the issue resolve? How do I fix this issue? Xbox Live Rewards on Twitter said I need to cancel the 3 month promotional Gold. But how do I do that? Xbox Support said that is not impossible. How does added a 3 month
    promotional Gold turn my entire Gold into a promotion? Also, I just bought a new 3 month that I added to my Gold, so how come it didn't change it back to non promotional?

    Do not understand how gold works

    As long as your console is set as your home console,which it should be by default,then you can share gold.

    Details on using the home console feature can be found
    here


    The code that came with the console is just a trial which only give limited access to some xbox live gold features.

    Several games will not let you play online with just a trial,you would need a full gold subscription for that.

    Another thing to remember is that Battlefront 2 is an E.A. published game & you need to be 13 years old or over to play E.A. games online.

    [quote user="andersonap360"]I ve bought a new xbox and Im using my 1 Month Free Live Gold.

    [...]

    So, whats wront? Is it because my GOLD LIVE ACCOUNT is the 1 MONTH FREE???[/quote]

    Since your gamertag shows as Free here on the forums, I think the problem is that you aren't Gold at all. The 30 day Gold trial offered to new gamertags created on a console is a true Gold membership and shows as such on the forums; since your gamertag
    shows as Free, you didn't get the Gold trial. (In contrast, the 48 hour Trial codes included in some games offer certain online multiplayer features but do
    not show the gamertag as Gold.)

    Since you've got played games going back years, I think you've misunderstood the 30 day Gold trial. It is only offered to new gamertags created on a console (up to three new GTs). If you download your old gamertag to the new console, you do not get another
    Gold trial.
