Finally decided to get an Xbox One. and it costs me less than 100 out of pocket

wait... you can change your gamertag once for free.

If support told you they could give you a free change, then you will need to talk to them again. However, it's generally not possible to receive a free change.

Hello Corbin Moore,

But she said an ambassador said its okay and would put it on for me and send me an email and i got this in the morning.

This is a follow up email regarding the free gamertag change you requested 11/8/2015. This issue is handled by our Enforcement Team. Please contact our Enforcement Team to work on this request. You can contact them by going to
http://enforcement.xbox.com/.

Thank you.

Sorry, but support gave you incorrect information. Ambassadors are not employees of Microsoft. We are just fellow gamers like yourself who volunteer our time to help out. We cannot give any sort of okay for that.

The enforcement team does not issue free gamertag changes. They will give forced gamertag changes if a gamertag violates the code of conduct. Even then you are given a randomly generated tag and not one of your choosing.

You will have to pay if you want to change your tag.

You only get the free change if the system created the gamertag for you, not if you created the gamertag. And the free change is only available for the first 30 days of the life of your gamertag.

So since you created the gamertag, you would not be eligible for the free change. You'll have to pay to change the name. At least you get to change your gamertag. On PSN there's no way to change your tag.

You cannot just request a free gamertag change. The support on the phone only change your gamertag for free since it was for privacy issues and/or your one and only free gamertag change.

So unfortunately you cannot just ask for a FNC.

You don't get a free gamertag change anymore. People would abuse the free change and create a gamertag that was still offensive. Now you have to pay to change it if you were given a forced gamertag change.

Once you use the one free Gamertag change, you won't be able to change it again for free. The charge of changing the Gamertag again is $10 if you choose to change it.

Trying to get a free gamertag change but just report them for text/voice messages and they will get a suspension instead of a free gamertag change.
