Changed my username, but my username didn't change

I appreciate the response!

I'm glad that it is working now! It's possible that there is a bit delay with the sync on the Xbox Live Server.

Stay cool and have an amazing weekend Kayden!

Hi Kayden! I'm more than happy to help you!

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Xbox gamer tag. No worries, let me help you sort this out.

Kindly confirm the transaction for the Gamertag change. Sign in to https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders, from there make sure that the free gamer tag change is showing as "completed".

Then check if you're able to change your gamer tag for free on social.xbox.com

Note: Do not proceed with the gamer tag change if it asks you for a fee.

Try to sign in to account.xbox.com to see if your new gamer tag is showing on your account.

If the issue still persists, try to reach out to Microsoft Xbox Support for further assistance as they have the tools and resources to properly investigate your gamer tag change. You may contact them using the link below:

And that name is likely to get changed as well. Please review the code of conduct.

Doesn't matter that you had it for 2 years... it just took that long for someone to report it and for the enforcement team to review and change it.

Also note that if you continue to choose inappropriate gamertags, the consequences could become more severe, up to and including a permanent suspension of your account.

I never used it until I tried change my username and it didn't change.
