Is it a free gold month or something?

My Xbox live ended back in august on the 13, I used a two week trial and I've had "gold" ever since. It's been telling me to buy it but I can still do everything gold can do, play online, join party's, etc...

Is my account glitched or are all these features just "standard" now and I didn't get the memo. I am definitely not paying for gold because my card isn't even linked to my account. Anyone else ever have this happen or is it just a free gold month or something?

Someone has your box set as their home xbox and your reaping the benefits.

I didn't even know this was possible, it has to be my girlfriends account. She doesn't even play on it or play anymore, so I'll just ride it out till it ends I guess.

Thank you so much, I didn't even know this was a thing!

She could just be paying $10 a month without knowing, it will auto-renew if you have a credit card added.

Thats not entirely true. Myself and friends included have had gold subscriptions last long after their expiry with no plausible reason as to why.

This happened on 360 as well.
