If you bought 3x Xbox Live (XBL) Gold cards, make sure you do not enable recurring billing when redeeming each card because it will add a month each to your XBL service time. The system limits you to 36 months total.

For example, redeeming 2x XBL Gold cards /w recurring billing gives you 26 months. The system will not allow you to redeem the 3rd XBL Gold card.

YMMV, but a Microsoft (MS) rep was able to get around this limitation. Here are the steps he took:
- I converted my 26 month XBL Gold into 26 months of Gamers' Pass Unlimited (GPU).
- Since I already have GPU, it converts the 3rd 12 month XBL Gold card into 4 months of GPU, for a total of 30 months of GPU.
- The MS rep then manually adjusted my GPU subscription from 30 months to 36 months.

Your comment cannot be blank.

Costco has 24 month Xbox Gold for $94.99(at least price online but I'm assuming in store is the same as well), so you could couple that with 1 year from Newegg for a slightly better deal.
Yes we do, its two separate topics entirely.

One if for yearly membership at Newegg.

The other is a slick deal on Ultimate pricing.
I am actually using it with my computer. You can play xbox live on any pc now.

Alright guys, here's the actual slickest deal: 37 months for $135 ($3.65/month). I just did it and it worked. I've never had Gamepass before (no trial or anything).
  1. Buy 2x 12-month XBL cards from Newegg via this deal [newegg.com] ($59.99-$10 coupon). Make sure to buy these on the same transaction because you can only use the promo code once!
  2. In a separate transaction, buy2x 3-month Gamepass PC cards from Newegg [newegg.com] ($19.99-$3 coupon). Make sure to buy these in the same transaction because you can only use the promo code once!
  3. Redeem each GC to your Microsoft account. You can get 1 free month for each code if you turn on auto-renew. Make sure you do this! Then turn off auto-renew before inputting the next code.
  4. Once everything is added to your Microsoft account, you should have 34 months of total time (26 months of XBL and 8 months of Gamepass PC).
  5. Now sign up for the 3-month Gamepass Ultimate deal for $1. Once you do this, all of your XBL and Gamepass PC time from the cards you purchased will be converted to GPU. Because this deal is technically buy 1 month, get 2 months free, your purchased month is added to your account, bringing you up to 35 months total, and your 2 free months are added after the conversion (getting the total up to 37 months).
Thanks for this, just completed step by step and was able to get 37 months. A bit nerve-wrecking but works! Now just waiting for my xbox series s to arrive.

Just to verify what others are asking about. I had an xbox live sub through 12/24/2023. I chose the ugprade to ultimate for $1 promo and it converted my entire sub and still added the additional 2 months that you get for free. So for $1 I now have a game pass ultimate sub through 2/24/2024. So basically this verifies you can be at the max 36 months for xbox live and still do the upgrade and get your additional 2 months. Awesome deal. Enjoy!

This post somehow needs more attention. Maybe added to the OP. I just bought 3 years from Newegg before reading this. Good job Omizzle.

Just to confirm, you redeemed the full 36 months of Xbox Live Gold cards, plus had extra time left on the Game Pass PC? Did it give you 38 months total when you converted, for an expiration date of 2/26/2024? Or did you need to redeem less than 36 months of Xbox Live Gold cards to prevent hitting the cap? Thanks in advance!

My gamepass for PC was expiring 10 jan 2021 and never subscribed to GamePass Ultimate.
I deactivated the auto-renewal, added 2x 1year of XBL and 2x 3 months of gamepass for PC.
Between each redemption I activated/desactivated auto-renewal to get 1 free month.

Now my subscription is ending 19/02/2024 (paid 135.96 USD)

Thanks @supfreak. That sounds like the best approach for having time left on Game Pass PC as you were able to get almost the full 38 months.

I talked to a friend today that had nearly a full month left on his Game Pass PC subscription, then was able to activate 3x 12mo XBL cards (it didn't block him since it was a different subscription). But it seems that he capped out at 38 months of Ultimate after the conversion, so 1 month was lost. Basically cost him $146 (costco + newegg + $1), so the method you used was slicker.

I am new to this and created a brand new Xbox Live account with a 12-month pass. Unfortunately it added the 1 month because of the auto-renew so the 24-month pass I tried to add gave me an error message because of 36 months being the max. Is there any way I can get this added to get the 36 (or 37 with the added month from auto-renew) months on my account so I can then convert it with the $1.00 GPU conversion for all months on my account?

I tried to talk to an MS rep over the phone and they said that I will have to wait a month which will then leave 12-months on my subscription so I can then add the 24-months to make it the max of 36 months. But I'm afraid this $1.00 deal won't be around in a month for me to benefit from the 36-months of GPU.

Please help!!! (And thanks in advance)

In addition to my post above, is it possible to convert the 13-month one I have now to the GPU plan for $1.00 and then once I add the 24-month pass next month, it will then extend GPU for the 24 months as well for a total of 36 months?

Can anyone verify that after the Ultimate pass, one month or three month trial is over it doesn't convert you back to gold?
