It'll come as no surprise to learn that the vast majority of Xbox Live codes from back in the day have since expired, but you might be shocked to hear that some of them actually do still work - even on Xbox Series X!
We were reminded of this by a user on the Xbox Reddit page yesterday, who shared a screenshot of a 48 hour Xbox Live Gold trial from 2006 (included with the Burger King 'Sneak King' game) working on a modern console.
Lots of fans have taken to social media over the past couple of years to report that some Xbox Live Gold codes - particularly those bundled with games - have worked for them, lasting anywhere from two days to three months.
So, if you've got a bunch of Xbox 360 games lying around and you're in need of some extra Xbox Live Gold time, give it a try! Who knows? You might find that you've got a working code from 15 years ago...
Have you tried this? Let us know your experiences with old Xbox Live Gold codes down below.

Now that's good service right there..
15 years, absolutely incredible!!
But what about Microsoft Points codes? Say if you had some old MS Points codes that never got used, how would they work? Do they expire, do they convert to cash, or outright not work?
@notleks_ I remember when they moved over to cash, the codes converted over to their equivalent value.
I recently went through all my preowned games and found a season pass for gears of war 4, Alan Wake 360 game with dlc, all gears of war games for 360, about 5 14 trials for gamepass ultimate and 3 month trial for EA Play. In my 360 games I found a preorder bonus for GTA4 that came with 800msp, a QR code for some avatar awards, and about 3 one month trials for gold
