Xbox Gold discounts to Buy games

It's holiday time and there are many game discounts. However, I see they all need Gold subscription for the discounts to apply. If I get the Gold subscription for a month and buy the games on discount will I be able to play them even after the gold
subscription ends?

I don't see why they shouldn't work, you've purchased the game.

Same problem here. First i tried claim the games with gold and didn't worked. Tried support via chat and they addded the game on my library. Then i tried buy one game with the Deals with Gold discount and not worked. Contacted support again today and they "made" the purchase for me with the respective discount and charged me only the promotional price of the game.

It's really annoying. The Live Gold subscription is not working about a month now. My case is still open with microsoft and i encourage everyone who is trying to buy games with discount to reach support via chat and request the game with the promotional price.

Update: I've contacted support again via chat and they cancelled my subscription and reactivate it. It's the second time they did this and now IT'S WORKING. The person at the chat told me that since yesterday, doing this method helped all te users so i recommend everyone with this problem to contact the suppor via chat.

Now i can buy the games with gold discount and claim the games with gold.

Update 2: I noticed that now the Game Pass discounts on games are not applying. The Live Gold discounts are working but the Game Pass discounts aren't. I still can play game pass games and play on the cloud, but the discounts are broken.

You keep the games bought with gold, unfortunately if you run out of membership and want to play these games, you won't be able to do it, until you get gold again, but the original Xbox 360 and Xbox games can be used

If you buy the game at a discount or not when you are gold status stays yours since you spent money on it, the only thing you do not get if your membership goes out is games with gold each month.

Games bought (with discount) will always be yours.

Games with gold (monthly free) won't be playable after your membership ends
