Hopefully someone can answer this....
I've got Xbox credit ... Looking to get more , but this credit will have a use by date of Feb 2019.
If I buy something , will Xbox use the limited time credit first ?
When you go to buy something via the MS store it should give you the option to choose between any credit OR your registered Credit/Debit card. If you use the credit it will use the earliest expiring credit first.
One thing to note, if you purchase a pre-order title and make a part payment with Xbox credit and a Credit/Debit card, Microsoft only take payment 10 days before so if your Xbox credit expires before this, you will lose it. Had this happen to me after a Microsoft Store Support assistant said that it wouldn't expire and said to contact them 24 hours later. Needless to say the credit did expire as the pre-order hadn't been billed. Thankfully Microsoft credited me 3 months of Xbox Live for the £5 Xbox credit lost.
