Subject: do I have free xbox live?

I subscribed to xbox live in december of last year to take advantage of the $1 christmas deal. Eventually, it gave me a note asking me whether I would like to disable the auto renew when my monthly subscription ends, so I disabled the auto renew.

So now, I still have xbox live. I can play halo reach online... i checked my bank statements, and I have not paid any money to microsoft.

I don't get it. Am I going to get a huge bill at the end of the year? because as far as I know, microsoft bills you monthly. And it pulls money directly out of your checking account/credit card. so.... I don't understand

Im afraid i can't help you though, i have never experienced anything like this before.

It'll ruin you, Microsoft want ALL your money. Expect a MASSIVE bill.
I once heard a story where this happened to a guy....
Now he's dead. He had depression and when he had no money left to fuel his drug habit, he promptly committed suicide. i lol'd

Ready are you? What know you of ready? For eight hundred years have I trained Jedi. My own council will I keep on who is to be trained. A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmph. Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless.” -Yoda

What is your gamertag? The one linked to your Bungie.net account hasn't played since last year.



I wouldn't count on it. I once had made a silver account and the trial when on for a year.

I made a bunch of gamertags, which was a really stupid move because I don't remember it's live email and password.

You could possibly expect a charge of about $200?

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

Same thing happened to me. It'll charge your credit card at the end of the month. You need to go to Xbox.com to get it to stop.

Frank O'Connor said he doesn't think the Halo series needs to be taken in a radical new direction... it just needs to go "deeper"

"Ultimately the core game mechanic and strength of the universe doesn't need to be changed, it just needs to be taken deeper. We want to make Halo games - we don't want to make Call of Duty or Ridge Racer. We want to make Halo games because we understand what's special about Halo."

Don't tell anyone about this.

My friend has had free xbox live for over 2 years and he has kept his mounth shut, and nothing has happened.

Lucky you >:)

You no troll? a similar thing has been happening for a friend where he has free live for quite a while now .... do you think he should pay for a month just to get them off his back a little?

Knock it off. Bad troll is bad.

OT: if you go to the billing section, that should tell you everything. I think it's billing.microsoft.com or something like that.

You can access it from Xbox.com too.

  • 02.12.2012 3:22 AM PDT

see like I said, I made a bunch of accounts, and I don't even remember the email I used for this particular account.

But january has passed, no bill, and febuary bill is coming up. We'll see.

  • 02.12.2012 11:58 AM PDT

There are three people I serve. God, Chuck norris, and Evilcam.

Probably OP, I would't tell microsoft about this though.

  • 02.12.2012 11:58 AM PDT

^^ yea that's why I'm not calling them

plus, I disabled the auto renew to be turned off when it prompted me to. so I should not have xbox live gold. that's the issue
