XBOX live gold free one month not shown in my profile

Hey there jithu0072002!

Sorry to hear about the live redemption issue. Sometimes it can take a few moments for your account to reflect the Gold status, especially if this is the first time you have activated Xbox Live Gold on that account. If this change does not reflect in 24
hours, please contact our chat or phone support agents through our
Contact Us page so you can get this issue sorted!

I believe you get one free month of Xbox Live Gold when you sign up for a Xbox Live profile the first time on a Xbox console.

Mister Gwyther

Does not count as one month, I am entitled to 3 months, not as I got my first gold in that month then this profile does not count right?

I can still create and all but 3 with Gold.

I have created another profile and this is with a 1 month live gold free.

You can close the topic.

And I'm sorry for my english xD

You should check out this support topic:

The Xbox Live Gold One Month Free trial memberships section should be able to help you.

In general, Smwutches is right, paid Gold membership is required to play online multiplayer. Exceptions include promo periods (free Xbox LIVE Gold weekends), trial cards (I've never seen any above 48 hrs), the free month trial for setting up a LIVE account
for the first time, and perhaps this situation...

IF you set up a LIVE account (without paying for membership) for the first time a month ago and you weren't using a trial card , then you were probably under the free month trial of Gold membership. All profiles get this free month for setting up LIVE for
the first time. Although, I think your status would've shown as Gold until it ended...

If, however, as I suspect, you've already used up that free month for setting up a LIVE account, weren't using any trial cards and thus your LIVE status is Free/Silver, then check out the following thread for others who experienced the same thing. Unfortunately
no one seems to know why it happened. Perhaps it was a glitch or a quiet/secret promo?
