I just recently purchased a 12+1 months subscription to XBL, and currently I am running under a 1-month free trial of XBL that came with my 360. The question is if I register it in, will it drop the remaining time on the trial, or will add it to it. I mean it may be just a week or so, but hell thats a week more you know, I am just curious if it will just add on top of it. The more time of it, the better, since XBL is so great. So if I do register my game card on, will it drop my trial? What do you think on this current situation and what do you know? I think I know where to find out, but I might as well ask, how do I check for current time left, adding on more time, etc on my 360 or so? Anyways all your answers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I had the same question I had a month left on mine as well then purchased the 12+1 and was worried I'd lose that month, but it just adds on, so you'll have 12+1+1 week or however long you have left. As for the question on how you check, im not exactly sure on that. And for adding on time, I think you go to redeem code, or you go to profile managment and it should say in there.

Hope I helped, and I hope someone answer's your other question.

I believe it completely cancels, because the free membership is to the silver i believe. If it's for gold, then it'll add on top of it. I never registered the free month one, just forgot to.

I wasn't sure myself, since trials somewhats get overrided in things.. I know some MMORPG did that with trials, but I wasn't quite sure. I read you can have up to 36 months of time subscriptions on your account off the package. Just thought I ask for a trial, as for a regular card addon.

1-month of free gold. Silver is always free. You register it when you register for free silver, and then it asks if you want a free gold 1 month.

Wait out the final week of trial, and then purchase the year subscription.
It completely cancels the trial. I lost about three weeks of free live when i bought my 360.

I know it adds on if you have a membership and enter another membership code. So even if you're on a free trial, it SHOULD add on as long as it's not one of those 24hr trials.
