    Xbox Live Gold not applying to account.


    I bought 3 months of Gold via the Xbox One console, I have a receipt from both Microsoft and PayPal showing that my PayPal was charged, but I still have no subscription.

    How to Join Xbox LIVE

    This is the final step before you start enjoying the most amazing entertainment experience on Xbox LIVE.

    The process is free and easy to follow.

    You only require an valid email address and a high-speed internet connection.

    There are two Membership levels available: Free and Gold. You can read more about what you get with each membership level.

    Before proceeding, confirm the following:

    If you have a Zune or Games for Windows LIVE account, it means you already have an Xbox LIVE account! All you have to do is to download the account to your Xbox 360 console, sign in and start enjoying the Xbox LIVE experience.

    If you have a Microsoft account, you can use it for your Xbox LIVE account.
    Note: "Microsoft account" refers to what was formerly "Windows Live ID". It is the email address and password you need to sign into Microsoft services (including Xbox LIVE).

    This means that if you already have a Messenger or Hotmail account, you automatically have a Microsoft account.

    So, during registration for Xbox LIVE, if you are asked for an email address, enter your Microsoft account.

    If you don't have a Microsoft account, you can sign up for a free account on your computer, or during the signing in process for Xbox LIVE.

    If you decide to go for Gold Membership, you should have your credit card information ready before proceeding with the process of signing up for Xbox LIVE.

    Steps to follow

    1) On your controller, press Guide then select Join Xbox LIVE.

    2) Follow the instructions on the screen on how to sign up for Xbox LIVE.

    Note: Make sure that you enter your correct date of birth when signing up. This will be used to determine whether you get a child account or an adult account. Once the account is created, you cannot change the date of birth.

    Join Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack

    With the Xbox LIVE Gold Family Pack, your family is given four 12-month Gold Memberships for less than the price of two. If you are interested, just select Family Gold on the Subscription selection screen.

    No option for Gold Family Pack?

    You might be using a child account, or the Gold Family Pack does not apply to your region.

    Here is a list of countries that have access to the Gold Family Pack:
    • Australia
    • Canada
    • United States
    • United Kingdom
    • Germany
    • France
    • New Zealand
    • Japan
    • Mexico

    Sorry to hear it. Currently your gamertag is showing as a Silver account, not Gold. This suggests the membership was not applied. Please log in to commerce.microsoft.com then click on Services & Subscriptions and see if the membership is listed there.
    If it is not then it's possible that you accidentally added the membership to another account.

    If the membership is not showing on another account or if it is and you wanted it on the one you're posting with then you should contact phone support for further assistance as only they can handle billing issues.

    If you live in North America dial 1-800-469-9269

    Windows Live and Xbox live question. Please answer ASAP.

    To get games on Steam or Games for Windows Live you do not need a Gold Membership. It only applies to your Xbox Live account.

    PLS HELP ME!

    Which xbox live gold did you buy? How long was it for? And when did you apply it?
