In my email It just states "click the download button below to retrieve your purchase" I click it then it just says under review. Has all the order details there, payment was done with PayPal. Been like this for about 30 minutes now

If this is cdkeys I had to wait a few hours last night for the same thing for an Xbox credit code before it unlocked. Was highly annoying but part of a security check I think.

OK ta. It was CDKEYS. The email shows I bought x3 of the 12 month gold, but when I click get codes, it's only showing just one 12 month. Was it the same for you?

Lucked out with Amazon, makes up for the 3080 fiasco. Going to be a very expensive month November. Was going to get a 3080 for Cyberpunk on the PC but going to get the Series X version now, The S is for my boy and I'll share gamepass with him.

Me too mate missed out on a 3080 so i bought a series X cyberpunk,assassins creed valhalla and watch dogs legion will all be bought for the xbox and the graphics will be just as good as PC plus gamepass for console is a lot better than the Pc version more games.

I'm a little confused looking at what games to buy at launch. When looking at watchdogs legions for example, the game states it is for xbox one x / xbox series x. Surely it should be one or the other? The series x game shouldn't run on the one x as well should it?

Smart delivery. It will give you the best version for the console you have.

If we buy a physical disk, do we still get a free upgrade to the enhanced version? I assume via their online digital delivery system?

Yes mate you get whichever version for the console you have a lot of older games are getting upgrades plus games are cheaper i think PS5 games are 60 quid Xbox is the better value console and more powerful too.

As long as it is supported. All first party MS games are but they have left it open to other devs to support if they wish with a strong but not definite push to supporting.

Are you going to play Cyberpunk when it comes out or wait for the proper 'next gen' patch whenever that is.

None of the guides mentioned it :/

I think support will cancel my sub, then credit me 24 months so I can add my third code, then I'll have to ask support to help convert it because I tried with the 26 months I had and it said payment error.

Argh!

On the plus side, code seller has offered to refund me on the one if I don't get anywhere.

Shame you didn't see the guide posted here as it's highlighted.

tolen from another kind member.

Buy up to 3 years of Xbox Gold either UK or Brazil to get it even cheaper from cdkeys.

If using the Brazil codes, connect to a VPN with a server in Brazil and check your IP location shows you as being in that country.

Go to microsoft.com/redeem in an incognito window to avoid any saved logins, login to your MS account and redeem the live codes, do not accept the free month for renewing if you want to add 3 years as it will take you over the max 36 months.

Log out, turn VPN off and then either use the xbox app or website to use the £1 upgrade offer. If you have already had a game pass sub you can buy a 1 month Ultimate code from CD Keys for £8.99 and just add that on the xbox app. It will say you are buying 1 month of ultimate but if you check your subscriptions after it will be prepaid until however months of Gold you had.

It's only when you add Gold to an Ultimate sub that you get the rubbish conversion and existing customers with an expired gamepass sub can do the same thing but they might not have the £1 offer so just use a 1 month prepaid code instead.
