Upgrade to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $1 is back

Upgrading for a buck seems to be back
In the past, Microsoft has offered a $1 CAD deal for users who sign up to try Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Now, with a new system in place, users who sign up for that deal will get the remaining years, month or days of Xbox Live Gold on their account converted to Game Pass Ultimate for the cost of that single dollar.

Can anyone verify that if the instructions in the summary of the last giant thread still works (meaning getting the bonus months and whatnot?)

I have the Microsoft Rewards points needed to get a 12 month gold
redemption but it seems like that reward has been gone from the store

I think there is a way to cancel it if you contact microsoft. Not sure how it affects the deal or already paid for services. Could be worth it though if you want 3 years

The max you can get for GPU is 36 months. But you got to have gold live fist before converting for $1

Costco membership isn't a requirement for this deal.
You can buy your Gold membership from whatever retailer you want.

If you are in Québec, you'll have to pay 16.99$ once to convert your membership. Only Québec and Russia are excluded from the offer.

Microsoft has now a "how-to" on how to get the deal on their own article Face With Tears Of Joy

At the bottom of https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2019/07/17/ ... -ultimate/
Start at your main Microsoft account page.
Go to the “Services and Subscriptions” tab at the top of the page — this will show which subscriptions you currently have on your account.
Before applying the “one month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $1” deal to your account, extend your Xbox Live Gold subscription by buying additional months.
You can get 12 months of Live Gold for $59.99 or go a la carte for $9.99 per month (for the non-math fans, that means you’ll save 50% by going for a full year).
Now, once you’ve extended your Xbox Live Gold subscription to the desired length, it’s finally time to add the “one month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $1” deal.
Once that deal is applied to your account, your Xbox Live Gold subscription will be converted to Game Pass Ultimate — and Game Pass Ultimate will be available for the length of your Live Gold subscription.
