No free month of gold for first time user

I was told by a friend that if i was a first time user of xbox live i could get the first month of gold for free, but i dont see where that option is.

:)

 

help please

Consoles only come with limited number of times you can get a free month of gold on a new account, which is 3 or 4. If you have created accounts for the free gold more than that number, then you get no free month of gold.

 

Problem with Xbox Live Gold Abo

After buying an Xbox One S I received one month free of Xbox Live Gold. I bought a 3 month subscription card later and activated it either on the same day or one day later. During the Activation of three month Prepaid Live Gold I received an error that there
was some problems. Two or three days later I saw that one month free Live Gold Subscription was activated and the other one was there but with no details (I was sure it will activate as soon as the free time ends). After one month (on 28th December) 30 day
free Trial ended and 6,99 was deducted from my Paypal account for another month (which I was forced to give, in order to activate the first free month) and at the same time I did noticed that the 3 month Prepaid Subscription had only 2 months left. In other
words I had 2 Xbox Live Gold Subscriptions running at the same time (one free and one 3 month Prepaid) and no information or warning about it.

I already canceled the first "free" Xbox Live Gold Subscription and I only got 5,87 back from the 6,99 I paid. If it wasn't enough, it seems that I did not get any free time at all, because my 3 month Prepaid Subscription was activated straight away after
I input the code. What's funny about it I couldn't use all the futures of Live Gold membership (for example getting a free game) because you need to spend some money first (pay for the Subscription at least once).

 

Hey there v24o.

If you recently purchased a console it should include a code for a free trial. Unfortunately we don't offer free one-month trials with new accounts any longer.
