After reading my own reply, I realized I don't need to link any payment methods if I just buy Game Pass codes externally right? (Shopee, SEAGM, etc)
Yes. Can buy code from shopee tooXbox Game Pass / Game Pass Ultimate Discussion

Hi guys, before I buy a pass from Shopee, anybody here is selling? Can PM me. Or if you want to recommend a seller, please by all means do so.
Btw, give acc to seller is okay also right? Kinda odd see some sellers for different lengths of subscription, they say either give code or give acc. |

Haha, I don't have Taobao, but it's a matter of just creating an account.you have to decide and if you can accept the risk or not if give account, so far my account can use and no problem. no one will know what's gonna happen in future rite. Hmm you're right, but if its something simple like changing password then it's alright too. |

guys, I strongly do not recommend you all to get your game pass from those seller that either sell you an account or you need to give your account details to them.
In most of the cases, their fund are coming from stolen credit cards/funds, MS will have a records on the payment details used on your account, once they've flagged it, it's very likely your account will be banned as well, worst case scenario: your console are banned as well. I suggest you buy the codes instead, safer that way |

Try to avoid buying GPU that gives access to seller, unless your MS account is just for Xbox alone it doesnt matter if it gets banned. If you are under MS ecosystem you are basically giving him the access of everything, be caution.
Best way to buy GPU is through gift cards or codes, different region GPU subscription cannot be stack, they need to be expired first. Tbh GPU is only $180 a year, roughly RM750 its about 3 new game cost? this is the max you will be paying This post has been edited by IccyAsd: Sep 7 2021, 04:55 PM |

RM750 a year is crazy compared to how much it costs compared to stacking xbox live gold and converting.Best way to buy GPU is through gift cards or codes, different region GPU subscription cannot be stack, they need to be expired first. Tbh GPU is only $180 a year, roughly RM750 its about 3 new game cost? this is the max you will be paying Anyway, I just recently let my GPU pass lapse after 2 years+. Turns out that it's not that easy. I bought 3 years worth of xbox live gold US codes thinking they would be the least hassle. Unfortunately my xbox region was still UK and US gold codes are not global (I seem to remember them being global the last time i bought codes to stack). I had to migrate to US region to redeem the codes even thought I had already been buying stuff on the US marketplace for ages. Once the migration had taken place, it still wouldn't let me redeem the XBL codes as there was a region mismatch. After online chatting with tech support they suggested waiting until the next day or 24hours for the migration to complete. I gatal gatal went and applied the codes a couple of hours later and they worked. Unfortunately when I tried to convert to GPU it didn't work as they said there was a region mismatch and the 3 years gold was denominated in GBP even though I had redeemed US gold codes. Waited the full 24 hours and it took another online chat with MS to sort that problem out and i finally upgraded my gold to GPU on the US marketplace. Still jumping through the hassle and paying RM690+USD15 for 3 years instead of one year is well worth the hassle. Additionally, even though i would have gotten a cheaper deal on shoppee with the link that was shared previously, i didn't really trust the seller as my MS account is a really old account with lots of details and services and i didn't trust their dispute resolution solution which involved giving my accounts details to them. I just went with a code seller (offgamers) which i have been using for years for that peace of mind. iguana_dude_619 liked this post

I remember it is easier to do that with subscription ended, so you can redeem those codes on your xbox due to region free then it will work on the conversion. Not sure if the steps you take could work with subscription still active, kinda afraid that it would auto convert XBL gold to GPU, i remember 12 months only get you about 4-5 months GPU if it converts that way. ![]() This post has been edited by IccyAsd: Sep 29 2021, 04:56 PM |
