    I have Xbox live gold but I can't use it because it says I don't have it.


    I recently bought a 12 month prepaid xbox live gold card to renew my expired gold subscription. I entered the code on my account and a message appeared stating the code was redeemed successfully. Everytime I try to play online it says I need to purchase
    a gold subscription again. When I look at my memberships it says that my subscription is good until August 9th of 2018. I checked my recent order history as well and it shows that on August 9th of 2017 I used a redeemed code for Xbox Live Gold. I am also prompted
    to join Xbox Live Gold when I try and download the games with Gold and on my xbox homescreen it recommends that I get xbox live gold. Please help because I know I have an Xbox Live Gold subscription but I can not use it like I should be able to.

    :)

    I bought Xbox Live Gold, but it says I don't have Gold.

    Hi there,

    please double check http://account.microsoft.com/services to see if the subscription is showing there.

    If the subscription shows, try the following steps

    Remove profile from the console (Make sure you know the account credentials for the account, since you will need them later)

    Perform the manual power cycle steps like mentioned on the following link, be sure to wait at least 60 seconds before powering on again:
    Restart or Power Cycle Xbox One Console

    Redownload your profile

    If these steps fail, then its best to contact Xbox Support (via Phone or Microsoft Support Chat) at

    I bought Xbox Live Gold, but it says I don't have Gold.

    I checked my transaction list and I bought Xbox Live Gold on 01/26/18, but now I'm getting the message to join Gold and I cannot play online or talk with friends in party chat. I have tried removing then re-adding my account onto my console, but that hasn't
    done anything.

    I purchased Xbox live gold but it is saying I don't have it!!!!!

    Excuse me but I've been having the exact same problem now and it's been over 24 hours since I purchased 1 month of xbox live gold and it still won't let me play online, and yet every person that I see has had the same problem, the only answer that xbox
    support can come up with is "remove your account and recover it again", even though I've already done that, reset my xbox, tested my internet and multiplayer connection, restarted my console, launched multiplayer games over and over again to no avail, and
    am STILL completely unable to access any multiplayer interactions THAT I PAID FOR.
