GamePass (Free 1 Month Promo for paying with PayPal)

When you buy from xbox store you do not get any code in email unless it’s a gift, rather subscription gets applied to your account by itself.

You should already be subscribed to game pass. You can confirm it here https://account.microsoft.com/services/

Login with the same account you used to purchase and you will see your subscription along with details such as purchased date and next billing date.

Note, the offer does state it is for new members only. So if you've previously had Game Pass, you would not be eligible for the free month.

*Existing Xbox Game Pass members who use PayPal as their recurring billing payment method and make an automatic Game Pass monthly payment will be entered into the sweepstakes; they will not receive a bonus 1-month bonus Game Pass.

Hello Rainbow

Being that you had an existing subscription to game pass you was only entered in the sweepstakes. As the extra free month was for new subscribers. As the previous posted that line is at bottom of the promo link.

Thanks,

Having just spoken to support, I am very annoyed about the way this promotion was advertised. I received an email from paypal regarding this free month via paypal. These were the T&C's at the bottom:

* Xbox Game Pass “Bonus Month” offer cannot be combined with any other offer and is only available in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom to all consumers who purchase a single 1-month Xbox Game Pass from Xbox.com, Xbox console or Xbox app using PayPal as their purchase instrument and consumers who currently use PayPal for the their recurring Xbox Game Pass membership payments (does not include purchases or payments made with any PayPal branded debit or credit card when used outside of the PayPal wallet). Limited to one bonus month per person. This offer ends on 31 October 2018 or while supplies last, and is not redeemable for cash. Codes are valid until 29 January 2019. Please allow 2 weeks for delivery of your bonus 1-month code via the Xbox Message Centre. Microsoft reserves the right to cancel, change, or suspend this offer at any time without notice. Xbox Game Pass subscription continues to be charged monthly at the then-current price (subject to change; plus applicable taxes) unless cancelled.

So this made me eligible for this offer. The email doesnt state further T&C's. As I subscribe via recurring billing I didnt go to the Game Pass website. I also wasnt directed there to read further T&C's. The next time I receive a promo from you, please make sure the T&C's clearer than the above, expecially when they get amended 2 days before I receive the promotion and dont state this.

Hi,

I ran into the same issue, which was also advertised on Windows Central stating that it also applies to existing accounts. I didn't had reoccurring billing but changed it last month and was billed twice already and also no code.

Here's the link: https://www.windowscentral.com/snag-free-month-xbox-game-pass-when-you-buy-one-paypal

I also read that it will take up to three weeks to receive my code. If it's a sweepstake I would consider the promotion as a rip-off.

The Support Agent also confirmed that I'm eligible for the code.

Thanks
