How many days are actually in a Gold month trial?

Vandoux · Feb 12, 2015

As the subject states, I'm curious as to how many days are in an Xbox Live Gold 1-Month trial. I saw it on the dashboard and was thinking about getting it, but since it's February, I was wondering how many days are actually included. I mean is it 30 or
31 days after you start it? Or is it just the next month on the same number day? If it's on the same number day, does that mean if you start it in February, that you're getting shorted a couple days? Thanks for any insight on the matter, I appreciate and
responses. ^,^

Glad I did not pay for this........

Actually it refers to how in the old days Sundays were boring to many people because there was no drinking or liquor sales on Sundays. So a month of Sundays would literally mean four or five boring days in a row.

Why I still not receive code of GOW123 and Judgment?!!!!!!!!!!

so it does qualify. I am still waiting for my codes, it has been over2 weeks now.

Yes but 2 weeks doesn't make a month

Its 31days which is 4 weeks you are just going to have to wait for your turn in the waves

Thanks for stating the obvious, i am fully aware of how many days are in a month, and that 28 days makes 4 weeks, not 31.

Thank you for you helpful comments x

They are 30 days I believe

Well since I didn't get any definite answers, or many replies, I went ahead and used the chat with customer service feature. Apparently it's just until the same number day of the next month. So if you start a trial on February 14th, for example, it ends
March 14th.

So you do in fact get shorted a couple days, which is kind of sad, even if it's only a few days. I guess I'll wait and use my trial in March, so I get a couple more days instead.

Thanks for the reply though, Daft Badger!

14-day trials don't count as being a Gold member. It needs to be an actual Gold membership, 1-Month, 3-Month, or 12-Month. I'm a little fuzzy on the 30-day free trial you get when you start up an account, though, not sure if they count. But I'm positive
the 14-day trial codes, the 48-hour passes, etc... do not count for it.

Trials less than one month don't actually give you a gold account. They just allow you to try out some of the features of Xbox Live. Games with Gold can only be accessed with a paying Gold membership or the first one month free trial. 2 day and 14 day
trials do not count as your account is still considered silver.

Actually, gold subscriptions do stack. You can add up to 36 months of gold at a time. Gold trials generally don't stack if they're the 48-hour, 7-day, or 14-day trials. So the 30 day may have actually just added a month to your subscription. You can also
double check your subscriptions at
http://commerce.microsoft.com to see if it shows both. If it doesn't, then you would need to contact support.
