    although having the main alias as the one for your xbox make it work, now for 365 you can change it back after you use your xbox, also some other things include below:

    You get the following error when you try to move your gamertag from one Microsoft account to another Microsoft account:

    8016FE6D

    This may mean that the original Microsoft account or your Xbox Live account is in one of the following states:

    The Xbox Live account has a past-due balance.

    The current Microsoft account associated with the Xbox Live account is deleted or expired.

    The Xbox Live account has been flagged for unauthorized access.

    The Xbox Live account has a local currency balance.

    The Microsoft account you are trying to move your gamertag from is under 30 days old. (This helps prevent your gamertag from being stolen by an attacker.)

    Or, it may mean that the “target” Microsoft account is ineligible because:

    That Microsoft account is associated with another Xbox Live account.

    That Microsoft account is associated with a billing account.

    so I hope this gets solved for all of you smart people that dont know how to solve a weird xbox problem.

    hope that helps Error 8016FE6D - Something needs to be done already! :)

    After several more hours with support today it looks like the email account that was associated with my gamertag was not the one that displays on my Xbox and Xbox.com. It appears that the last time I changed the Microsoft account associated with my gamertag
    (many years ago) the migration did not complete so if there is such a thing as a partially expired account that is what was still linked to my gamertag and all my transactions looked like they were with the updated account. So the rep had to remove my subscription
    from the partially expired account. I was fine up to this point with how this was handled with support however they sent me to another group to get a new token for my subscription since my gold account was taken down to silver and the phone rep hung up on
    me now I have no code and a silver account.

    RitzyBiscuit7 - On my console I am prompted to sign up for gold now when I am signed in and I have no Xbox LIVE subscription. I have to call again today to support to get my token since the tools were down yesterday.

    Nice to see official support looking into this. But I'm a bit confused as to how adding an alias would help? The Microsoft account I'm trying to move my gamertag to already has a few aliases on it. Are you suggesting trying to use the alias address rather
    than the primary to switch it to the account we want it on? I tried that just then with one of the aliases I already had and it didn't work.

    A user in another thread about this said they finally had theirs fixed. And it seemed to be the result of having both personal account and business account subscriptions, like when you go to commerce.microsoft.com and look at your account. Checking into
    this I found that my account that I'm trying to move my gamertag to also has a business account listing which turned out to be where I have a subscription to Office 365 University. This is the thread I was referring to where one use got this issue solved:
