UFC app outage nets users free UFC 142 and a month of Xbox Live

4.6
Following the technical difficulties with the first streaming event for the UFC on Xbox Live app, Microsoft has come up with a consolation. Tomorrow's UFC 142 event will be free for those affected by the outages of UFC 141. All you need to do is sign into the app with the affected Gamertag. It should all work out this time ... we hope.

Users affected will also receive a free month of Xbox Live Gold service. "Our hope is that this gesture conveys our sincere apologies, and helps restore confidence in our customers and fans," a Microsoft spokesperson said. UFC 142 will air live from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil at 10pm ET on Saturday, January 14.

LOL! This is a lie. UFC 142 was free to anyone who responded fast enough, and downloaded UFC 142, before all the free spot's were up. There was no special privilege's for those who where affected by the down time on UFC 141. Lie's! I was one of those people affected, I did not get UFC 142 for free, just the people who where able to get a free ticket.

Hugo-Stiglitz What time would that be in the UK? I have a UK account but I have the UFC app and want to do it....


Im in the UK and I have to app too. but when i try and purchase it, it keeps saying the service isnt available =[


Me too. It's probably because we have the UK accounts. It would probably work on an American account though.
