close gamertag

Hi there, we're afraid we're not certain we understand what you mean regarding closing out a gamertag. Can you please clarify?

If you feel your account was compromised, please run through
these steps.

Hello Vagr Channel,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in learning if you can close a Microsoft account and use the gamertag on a different Microsoft account while the first account is being closed. The gamertag will remain
on the account that is being closed until
it has been changed or the account has been closed completely. You cannot use the same gamertag on two different Microsoft accounts even if one of the accounts is in the process of being closed. We hope this information helps!

If you have a Gamertag, you have a Microsoft Points account. That'll prevent you from closing it.

There really shouldn't be any reason you actually need to close an account. You could also swap the gamertag to another email then close it. Or contact Xbox support to close your account in accordance with privacy laws.

Hmm the only way you can really delete a gamertag is by closeing the account assoicated with the account. I think that the only way you can get close to delete a gamertag i could be wrong.

Sorry, there is no way to attach a Microsoft Account to a gamertag that you closed the WLID for. There's also no way to move the save data from one gamertag to another. All save data is tied to each different gamertag. If you've closed the account's WLID
then unfortunately there's no way to recover that. You would need to make a new gamertag and start from scratch.
