Xbox Live Gold price is misleading and deceptive

Microsoft bills customers $79.95 for 12 months of Xbox Live Gold,

significantly higher than the current advertised price of $53.00. This

is misleading and in contravention of the Fair Trading Act 1986.

Microsoft Support was unwilling to remedy the matter. A complaint has been lodged with the New Zealand regulatory authority responsible for enforcement action

XBOS1005 error

same problem in entering 12 months Xbox Live Gold Online-Code from one website. We get error code Xbos1005. I am very frustrated and deceptive

 

Country missing

Our advertising re live and live gold when selling the product is deceptive, as in fact only very limited jrisdictions are available, where one can actually pay for the service.

 

Hi there,

Unfortunately no one in the forums can assist with a billing specific issue such as this.

If you're an existing Live member it does say right on the
Xbox page, the "promotional offer is not valid for existing subscribers".

 

I'm new to live. I'm not an existing subscriber

 

Then it should have charged you the promotional price. Did you reach out to phone support or one of the other support contact options? If you haven't tried
phone support, I would recommend trying that route by requesting a call back.

 

The price you see should be the price you buy it for. Contact support, and they should be able to figure it out for you.
