Hello guys,

So I've been using game pass for like 2 months now. Seeing the Black Friday discounts, i thought I'd get the 6 month subscriptions with 50% off. The problem is that the Xbox/Microsoft Store doesn't accept even the Microsoft Wallet amount i have. I purchased a game from the same wallet amount, but I'm unable to purchase/extend my game pass subscription using it (says i should contact microsoft technical support). I plan on stacking my subscription to at least a year. Lemme know if any you have a work around.

yeah i dunno if this is new or happened from start but i tried getting that 1$ gold for one month offer and even though i had 20$ in credit they asked for a credit card, i even supplied them with one but they still didnt let me get the 1$ gold :( saying the same error as you.. even went behind vpn to purchase but same error.

Hmmm.... It is the same problem. I think the issue is that since it has recurrent payments it needs a backup payment method, which needs to be US based. Will try to find a solution and share if anything works.

In the meantime, there was a good deal on cdkeys and i got 3 months for $21. Not as good as the deal Microsoft are offering, but still better than paging full price.

I want to cry right now. Will buy 1 more year of Gamepass.


Edit: Just realised that you are talking abt XBL Gold. I wanted Gamepass not Live.

Even though the sale is over. I didnt have any issues buying the 6 month gamepass.. and i used the Xbox cash that i have... maybe its an address issue.. im using my brothers US address as my billing address and have had no issues.

I faced a similar issue pretty recently, was unable to purchase the 1 buck deal for the gamepass, having more than enough store credit. Contacted the microsoft chat support and they actually made the purchase on my account in just 5 minutes.

    no idea how that is a steal by wasting 3500 rupees per month and for games that are removed before you can finish them off.xbox gamepass is garbage with no local prices

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
    There are no such thing as "bad design" bro, its all "artistic vision" now :ROFLMAO:
