How do I redeem a 12 month Xbox live gold subscription and keep my ultimate for 12 months...

If you currently have Game Pass Ultimate and attempt to redeem a 12 month Xbox Live Gold code, it will convert to a 3 or 4 month Ultimate subscription. If you want to continue with just Gold for 12 months and not Ultimate, you would have to wait for the
Ultimate to expire before redeeming the regular Gold code.

If you don't currently have Ultimate, then you should have no problem redeeming the 12 months of Gold.

If you redeemed the 12 months of Xbox Live Gold and it was added to your current Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, I am not sure if you will be able to get the 12 months back, if you did not redeem the 12 month Gold code, then simply follow Smwutches'
advice.

Yes the auto renewal is off already. I have the Game pass ultimate until May 25. I already bought a new 12 month xbox live gold card but when I try to redeem the code it says my 12 month
gold will be automatically convert to a 4 months xbox game pass ultimate which I don't want. I want the 12 month of xbox live without the game pass. Do I really have to wait until my xbox game pass expired before I can redeem a new xbox live gold (without
the game pass ultimate)?

So if i cancel my Gamepass subscription will it give back my 12 months of gold?

Hi The SolidEgg,

No, it will not give you back the 12 months. By cancelling your GamePass Ultimate subscription, it will not renew after 15/05/2020.

The 12 month voucher has been redeemed against Ultimate in line with terms and conditions of the subscription.

Hi! My name is Pam. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

Good question. I'm afraid 12 months of game pass ultimate is not being offered on the Microsoft store but if you can find a 12 months of Xbox live gold from game shops near you, you can redeem that and purchase 1 month of Xbox game pass ultimate to convert the Xbox live gold subscription.

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.
