Cancel Xbox subscription & Close Xbox account

Hey there, this is the info I found on this site for canceling your XBL account. The first link is mainly for canceling your membership and the 2nd link should take care of everything else like clearing up the account, removing your email and officially
close your account.

An Xbox account cannot be closed, it can however have the subscription canceled. If you closed the email account associated with you Xbox Account, that is something you would need to bring up with the email account provider (such as Yahoo, Gmail etc).

This page shows how to turn off auto renew.

You can`t simply close an account,you just stop paying your subs but the the account will always remain there as a silver account.

There are a few steps:

To cancel your Xbox membership (if Gold) you can do two things: Cancel the Automatic Renewal on your account (go here: http://support.xbox.com/en-US/billi...management/cancel-xbox-live-gold-subscription)
and you can use the rest of the time left on the subscription. If you want to immediately cancel your membership you have to contact Xbox Support directly. At the bottom of the page link above you will see the option to Contact support.

To close your Windows Live account (that's your Windows Live email and ID) go live.com and log in. Next to your user name you will see a drop down arrow, click it and then click Account. On the Account page go to the bottom and you'll see the option to close
the account.

You should deal with your Xbox account first before closing your Windows Live Account.

You can cancel subscriptions at http://account.microsoft.com but there's no way to delete just an Xbox account without closing the Microsoft account as well.
