Xbox Gold Problems?

OddP0rcup1ne · Jul 14, 2015

Do you have to purchase separate Xbox Gold memberships for every Microsoft account on your console? My father had purchased one for himself, and said that my account had it too. Yet when I sign on, it tells me that I have the free one. any help would be
appreciated.

Here is the link for the info, not family sharing but benefits of 'home gold'

I think so yes but for a single xbox, it takes the single live account and all users can access features behind the paywall as if they had gold on that console.

arthurdentpc has 3 xbox's tho, and the old "family" bundle allowed each user to effectively have their own gold membership, so gold on each user which translated to gold on each console, now its gold to anyone on the single xbox....

So I assume on single xbox families the new system is much better, but on multiple xbox families its not as good. Its not super clear tho how this new gold system will work on xbox one, but it does read like arthur is shafted rather unfairly in this new scenario.Click to expand...

If that is the case who gets to use their gold account on other machines? They've clearly said that. Just like now, your live subscription follows you to whatever Xbox console you use. So who on that original console can take their account to another console?

Yes on the 360.

On the xbox one you only need one gold account that has gold sharing switched on.

Only the actual gold account holder will show as gold though.

If the memberships were transferred from Xbox One to the 360, does it allow them to keep Xbox Gold?

Only the person who actually has the gold attached to their account would be able to use it on both consoles. Anyone who is just sharing the gold will need their own subscription on the 360.

I have xbox gold. I have had xbox gold. I tried repurchasing xbox gold and it won't let me because I already have and can't buy it again while I currently have it. The problem is not that I do not have xbox gold. The problem is that I have it and I cannot
access multiplayer functions.

Hey, avi!

I'm sorry to see any issues playing Games with Gold on your console! That error is a generic one for failing to get a response. Are these Games with Gold games that you have redeemed on your account? If not, it might be that someone who has redeemed them,
who used to have your console set as their Home console, might have changed their Home console to another one. This tends to be the most common scenario of users not being able to launch Games with Gold games.

However, if that's not the case and it's games that you have redeemed yourself, post back with the game titles so that we can dig into this a bit further. We look forward to working with you on this!

go to https://account.microsoft.com/services and turn off recurring billing/auto renew on the Game Pass Ultimate subscription before you get a Past Due Balance on your
account.

if you get a Past Due Balance you will need to pay that off before you can get Live Gold or Game Pass.

wait till the Ultimate Game Pass Expires before getting Gold or it will convert to Ultimate Game Pass

Try removing the account from the console and then re adding it. That can usually fix this issue.
