Xbox Gold issues

Alright. So I bought my Xbox One S only just a few days ago. Connected it all up, connected it up to the internet, all well and good. put in the 14 day trial Xbox Live Gold code, it went through. Wanted to start a party so I can chat to my friends.. as soon
as I selected "Start a party" it took me to the "Get more with Gold" screen. went back to the parties section in the guide "To join a party and chat, you'll need Xbox Live Gold" went to my subscriptions and its only shown whats expired. What am I supposed
to do?

Microsoft giving free digital games for users with broken disc drives

I was just told this while chatting with an MS rep about a separate issue: "Every console sent in for repair will have a free 30 day Xbox Live Gold subscription after the repair. However for those with disc unreadable issue, on top of the free 30 day Xbox Live Gold subscription, they'll receive a free game token." They will email the code after the replacement XBox has shipped.

 

Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition doesn't load

Does anyone else have this issue with Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition for Xbox One? Whenever I try to start the game I get the Sleeping Dogs logo but then it just goes back to the xbox one home page. I have tried uninstalling and re downloading but always the same, Ive always had this problem since I got the game when it was on games with gold. I contacted microsoft and they say that my license is correct and that as I have Xbox Live Gold I should have no problems playing it so they said the problem is with the developer. Anyone else had this issue with Sleeping Dogs, or any other game.

Thanks for any input.
