xbox live gold 14 day trial

GasmanIG · Dec 30, 2014

my son has his own account with me as parent overview, he rebelled the code for the 14 day free live gold trial but nothing is showing on his account, or mine. when we reenter the code it says it has been redeemed? any ideas what has gone wrong, or where
i can access it? thanks Ian

Have you tested any features to see if the trial is activate.? The only notification you get is when you first enter your code and begin your trial. Remember though, with trial memberships not all Live functionalities are available.

Identical issue here:

- chose not to add payment details when first setting up the console (bizarre thing to require on first install). This meant the live gold trial option disappeared.

- added subscription from included code on flyer a few days later once we'd added family accounts and set appropriate levels

- subscription looks to have worked; the December games are zero cost in shop (yay!)

- download of content is fine but installation fails with no error code and 'Renew your membership'

The 'activated' trial membership is not listed under subscriptions. There are no meaningful error messages and I cannot find any reference to any restrictions on functionality. (I know the game would be locked out if I didn't set up ongoing subscription.)

A trial membership should be just that - I want to be able to see what I would be getting. I am not exactly falling in love with this service at the moment.

My questions would be: How can the 14 day trial membership (included in the box) be used to view, use and evaluate the service?

thanks

Dear Support,

Thank you for the fast reply!

Er...my question is that a 'xbox game pass ultimate 14 days trial codes' could be used/sold as 'xbox game pass 14 days trial code' or 'xbox gold live 14 days trial code', right?

I understand that a xbox game pass 14 days trial code or a xbox live gold 14 days trial code can't be used/sold as xbox game pass ultimate 14 days trial code for sure.

Because a 'xbox games pass ultimate 14 days trial code' equals a 'xbox game pass 14 days trial code + xbox live gold 14 days trial code', so for new Microsoft/Xbox accounts, a 'xbox game pass ultimate 14 days trial codes' could be used/sold as 'xbox game
pass 14 days trial code' or 'xbox gold live 14 days trial code' , right?

Please help to clarify.

Thanks again for your time!

Hello Cianka,

that is why unable to get the backward compatible games. They will not work with the 14 day trial unfortunately. In this link

describing Xbox live gold there is a section explains the trials.

With an Xbox Live Gold 2- to 14-day trial, you can get Xbox One Games with Gold, and discounted Gold deals.

If it was a one month trial you could get the backward compatible games.

Thanks,

Brad
