Xbox Game Pass Increasing to £22.99 / month

[asimtahraf]

For those of us that use Game Pass Ultimate as our inclusive extra, what’s going to happen now that Game Pass Ultimate is increasing to £22.99 a month?

Hi @asimtahraf @MikeN73

I cannot say for sure but it does say this is a third party service and as per the terms and conditions EE are not responsible for any changes in content or changes. I assume Microsoft will contact you accordingly.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply.

I understand it's a 3rd party service, but game pass ultimate is currently valued at £14.99 - I do not pay this as I get it as an inclusive extra on my smart plan.

What were querying, is now that Microsoft has increased it to £22.99pm, how this would effect our inclusive extra - do we still get the ultimate plan for free, or will EE change it so we can get the standard for free and have to pay the extra to upgrade.

I doubt it would go to standard if it did change, more likely to premium or perhaps PC gamepass which is around the same price as £14.99 ultimate

Hopefully they wont change it though, I imagine EE has a deal with Microsoft where they get the codes extremely cheaply

I have the same question.

I signed up to a 2 year, £29 a month add on that is a Meta Quest 3 Headset, and 2 years of Gamepass Ultimate. 

Presumably my price just stays the same? 

[Verk]

I'd imagine so, Besides the usual price increase on the 31st march thats outlined

What about if I  have game pass as  swappable benefit? Will they cancel it and tell me to pick different benefit as prices goes up?

Nothing official has been announced on this yet, but EE do reserve the right to change the Inclusive Extras they offer at any time - so it may or may not happen, will just have to wait for official news.

I have attached a link to the Inclusive Extra T&Cs below which feature the above clause around changing Inclusive Extra options.
