3-Month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Membership (Digital Code) Expired

Where in the heck did you get 3 years of Gold for less than $150? This deal is 3 months for $25 which would put you at $300 before you pay for the conversion.

I don't know how any of you are checking out.
ApplePay declined 3x now saying it was suspected fraud
CAp1 said the same, I marked the transaction as not being fraud and tried again, nope, denied
Fidelity CC, denied
BOA Denied

Gave up

I'll wait for Target Black Friday and buy them there like I did last year.

Any reason people prefer this over the South Africa deal for $36/12 months? Yes, you need a VPN, but it comes out much cheaper?

My credit card company keeps flagging this site as fraudulent and I have to call them to tell them it's really me. Was unable to get a transaction to work via CC, PayPal not ApplePay. I think this site is probably known to be used for fraudulent transactions and I am going to avoid it now.

I see a lot of questions and misinformation on here about this deal and Game Pass Ultimate in general in this thread, so let me clear some of that up.

This deal:

1. Ok deal, cost is about $8 per month

2. CDKeys does not use stolen credit cards to buy these and then resell them to you. The credit card company would cancel the sale and then MS would cancel the key. Looking at history on this site CDkeys has been around a long time and the most common complaint is the key has been used, but from comments they seem to get those folks new keys pretty quickly. Pay with a credit card/PayPal you should be good.

Gamepass Ultimate FAQ

1. Cheapest reliable way to get it is and has always been to stack Xbox gold, even at full price ($60/year = $5/month) up to 3 years max can be stacked. If you have GPU right now, you need to let it expire first.

2. Then you get/buy 1 month of game pass ultimate which will convert all of your gold time to GPU for whatever you paid for the month of GPU. MS may offer you a deal for $1 for 1-3 months of GPU (this is typically for those brand new to GPU, but quite a few folks have reported getting it again after letting it expire), you can buy a month at full price ($14.99), or any other month deal you can find between. Trials (typically 1-2 weeks worth) won't work for the conversion.

3. Once you have GPU you can either extend it with deals like this (likely to be legit retailers if you just don't want to deal with CDkeys with prices close to or beating this on BF) or you can let it run out and start over at step one to maximize savings.

4. ymmv - MS may offer a free month of whatever prepaid code you are adding if you turn on recurring billing. You must turn it off before entering the code to be offered the deal, and then not everyone is offered. You can turn it off between each code to get additional free months. Again this is ymmv.

Let me know if you have more questions, I have helped many many people get GPU for cheap.

I cannot seem to find the best way to extend my game pass ultimate subscription if I am already a member. It seems every thread is about joining for the first time or rejoining after expiration?

Can anyone please advise the best way to extend membership at a discount for another year?

CDKeys WILL 100% try to screw you over if the codes don't work so make sure you buy with Paypal or have a credit card company who will have your back. I've had two past codes not work (tried to use them instantly after receiving) and CDKeys was a pain in the butt each time. Both times I was able to dispute the charge via paypal and get my money back. Most of the time the codes have worked, however.

Just realize it's a overwhelming chance these are bought with stolen credit cards and you are helping them. But besides that don't forget you are risking getting your account banned by microsoft
