This is probably a glitch in their system so not sure how long it will last.
If you are looking to renew your xbox live subscription, sign in to the xbox live website, choose Xbox Live, Join Xbox Live Gold, then select one of the three options below (it still £5.99 for a month) but as soon as you go to the next screen, there is an option for £1 a month.
Make sure to turn off auto-renew once you are done since the price is likely to go back to normal once they have fixed this!
Enjoy while you can!
P.S, so far, I have only tested this on the UK store and not sure if it works outside the UK.

See if you can glitch it like you could in 2010 (ish), I got 4 years of Xbox Live for £48 back in the good old days.....

Good old days :smiley: I tried but you can't. It only lets you purchase this option if you are renewing for 1 month.

This came up as 0 for me, just tried it out and i can play on xbox live, just had a quick blast of WAW Zombies(the best one), and once done go into your account and switch of auto renew.
Free gold for a month, allow me to have a few blasts as BO2 again.
Oh and you can remove your payment method via your console after you have done this.

Unlike myself who left the payment details on for a few weeks whilst the 8 year old boy had an unknown spending spree of £45.
Fortunately it wasn't as a greater amount as a neighbour whose child racked up a £500 spend!

Can you see if you can 'buy' the free Games with Gold with your free month? Cheers.

Do I get an apology from OP for the rant I got for stating the obvious in reply 1?

it was because for black Friday they did your first month for £1 but now i think they can't get it off or something

We used to get for £1pm on 360 for quite a few months. I always thought it was the offer came up because I pressed the B button when asked if wanted to renew :laughing::stuck_out_tongue:

Odd, pretty sure he's had other trials in the past, and has also been a subscribing member.
Any ideas if trial members can claim the freebie games?

Just checked on my sons account and it's showing as £0.00 for 1 month? Anyone else got that?

I think everyone is entitled to a free month trial and your son hasn't claimed his yet. Cancel straight away after or they'll charge you full price on renewal next month.

No it does not, the 12 month deal is at £39.99 so why would they put the 1 month deal at £1? As I said, it is a glitch on their system and they are trying to fix it, put it back to £5.99 a month.

Not a glitch it showed up as an offer on my Xbox one. Make sure you unsubscribe to not get charged 5.99 per month afterwards

It was officially announced on the 20th with the first batch of Black Friday deals and even already mentioned in the teaser video leading up to Black Friday. Hardly a deal.

This isn't a glitch it's a way of getting people back onto gold. I had this offer on my 360 dashboard the other day
