Thanks again for your earlier post about getting Game Pass on the cheap, had a look into that trick and just got 3 years for about €100, saved myself nearly €400, absolutely delighted with myself, hah!

It's dirt cheap.

I think it's especially good for parents with kids. Get an Series S and 3 years of Game Pass for €400. Includes EA Access now as well so there's loads there to keep kids entertained.

my xbox gold ulimate not up till August 2022 just hope the third party 12 month xbox gold codes are still in stock in 2022 since Microsoft discontinued 12 month gold.

This is the downside to xbox will be we be left with no option but to buy the full price ultimate and 3 month gold.

Isn't there rumours of Xbox getting rid of Xbox Gold fee?

Just got an xbox series S on game.co.uk who still have a few left it seems.
Delivered it to parcel motel because it wouldnt let me send it straight to Ireland even though it allows international shipping.
Weird but I got one so I dont really care. Roll on November

They won't ship hardware outside the UK.

PM/PW and a UK issued card like Revolut usually gets around that.

You should be tine then. Have had issues with this exact problem before as I tried an Irish card. Once the order actually completes you are good.

Anyone still suffering issues with completing the pre order from Currys?

Great to know, trying not to get ahead of myself and start ordering games until I see the price of the console go through on my card.

I availed of the 1 euro trial a while ago on my PC game pass on my Xbox account last Xmas, is there any way to re stack it or am I screwed?

You just leave your current sub expire and then you can stack XBLG.

I had the link working but was waiting for savings to be transferred to pay. Typically the site went down and now I can’t access it. Supposed to be a new batch of emails coming today which are valid for 12 hours

Must sent individually I've nothing in.

I tried the pre order link and it generated an email to be sent to me that said it was now corrected but still not working just and endless cycle of entering my email and receiving the same email again with the same link.

Legits

Did your Email work?

Same here the link just regenerates the e-mail.

Fuzzy Logic

Seems to have worked for me. Tried on my work laptop and got authentication failed and then tried on my mobile phone which worked as I needed a verification text and then when I went through the top of the page said "oops we encounterd the following error, This product either does not exist or is no longer available" but when I scroll down it says it's paid.

Just got an email then with ;

Loading 100% complete.
Your Xbox preorder is now complete. Very exciting...

Please ensure you visit your chosen store for collection from November 10th*. Your console will be waiting for you.

Also, note that you will have up until the 17th November to collect your Xbox console. If you are unable to do so, unfortunately, we will have to issue a full refund.

Just a little reminder

Please bring with you your preorder number found in your confirmation email along with a valid form of ID to verify your purchase (Valid forms of ID include a passport or driving licence)

I got the same error message at the top of the screen after completing the order, I guess it becomes ‘no longer available’ because you’ve bought it now. I got the confirmation email and funds immediately taken out of my account, you should be sorted. 18 days

Fuzzy Logic

Yeah I'm not worried once I got the confirmation email. I still had the fall back option in Gamestop and the Series S booked in Smyths.
