Hey guys, I'm considering getting an XSX through Telstra on their 24-month All Xbox All Access plan.

I'm a little confused about how it will work with my existing Gamepass Ultimate credits though.
I did that thing where you max out your Xbox Gold subscription to 3 years then convert it to Gamepass Ultimate for $1.. I still have 12 months remaining on that.

What happens when I get the Xbox through Telstra?
Does it add 24 months onto my existing subscription?
(eg it currently expires March 2023 – would it then add 24 months and therefore expire March 2025?)

If it doesn't add to my existing credit, it's a serious loss of value..

    You could just forget the included Gamepass and just cancel your plan and pay off your Xbox within the first month.

    From Telstra's FAQ:

    "If you're already an Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass member, any days remaining in your membership(s) will be converted to Ultimate at a conversion ratio when you redeem the monthly Ultimate membership and add it to your Ultimate membership up to a maximum of 36 months.  Xbox Game Pass Ultimate memberships are limited to 36 months.

    "If you’re already an Ultimate member, wait until your existing membership has a prepaid balance that is less than 12 months before redeeming the 24-month Ultimate membership through Xbox All Access.  You will be unable to redeem with more than 12 prepaid months of Ultimate. To check your prepaid balance, go to your Xbox account. Note, once converted to Ultimate, Xbox Live Gold and other Game Pass memberships cannot revert. To find out more, visit the Xbox Game Pass page."

    It seems it gives you a 24-month code to add on to your membership, so I think you're good.
