As long as you are signed in, and have a valid Gold account, it always shows me 'Free' for any 360 Games with Gold.
I do have a credit card linked to my account though, if you don't then you may need to register one.
This is the screen when getting 360 Games with Gold:

Thanks for the reply , I have a full gold account , but I really don’t want to add a CC as my lad would have a field day on it

You could add it then remove it. I know what you mean though as I ended up with a £400 bill for damn Fifa crap a few years back haha

Luckily MS took pity and refunded me.
