Question

i have one account with gold for the year ($50) can i cancel that and then make a new account and give it gold for "x" amount of time and not pay for the $50 because it hasn't been a year?

Answer 1

if you are trying to cheat the system (not pay for your xbox live subscription) it is nearly impossible. The year long membership is prepaid and renewed every year at the time you first redeemed your xbox live subscription code. You will have to pay for the second account, but if the reason why you are doing this is because you want to change your gamertag just buy some microsoft points and do it....not worth all the hassle you are putting yourself up for

Answer 2

No, if you've already agreed to pay for the year, you'll still have to do so.
