Can't change gamertag because the currency is different

Hi AqilGG. My name is Kyle and I'm an independent advisor.

May I ask what device you are using to change your gamertag?

Thanks,
Kyle

Sorry but currency is limited to the country from which it was purchased and cannot be changed. You run in to a couple of issues with what you've done here.

1. The gamertag needs to be set for the region (country) that the currency is for in order to use the currency. You can only change the gamertag's region once every 90 days.

2. Even if you were able to use the currency to purchase something you run the risk of not being able to download the item due to region issues. Some items cannot be downloaded because of the differing IP addresses.

When we had the Microsoft points you would be able to use the points toward changing your gamertag, now that we converted to using currency everything has changed. You will have to use a credit card in order to purchase the gamertage change you can't use
currency. sorry for the inconvenience.

If you created your own gamertag at signup and want to change it, you will be charged (fee varies by region and currency)

Currency is the key word here for you can't make this purchase with MS points

It will actually cost you 1600 Points because you'll have to change it twice.

Since gamertags can't differ only by capitalization or spacing, you won't be able to change directly to a version with only a capital letter change. You'll have to pay 800 Points to change it to something truly different, then another 800 to change it back
to the original gamertag with different capitalization.
