    Gamer tag issue


    Okay. I am wanting to change my gamer tag on my profile. When attempting to do so through my 360 I am signed out and presented with an error code (8b050008-6f419139-9eeb859f) saying that the feature is unavailable. However I have a 2nd profile on my console
    that when I attempt to change the gamer tag it doesn't give the error message and will allow me to make the change. Main problem is that i want to use the account that has the problem because it has gold status for another year prepaid. How can this be fixed?
    And why can i change one but not the other.

    :)

    Hello,

    Unfortunately, at this moment the gamertag Force Change is as is. Please make sure in the future the Gamertag does not appear to Void the COD or Teams of Use. Any more questions please let us know.

    Thank you!

    Hey there BRpunked,

    I'm going to try my best to give out any possible solutions to this problem, and if none of them work some helpful contact information for the Microsoft Customer Support (For any possible Account Problems)

    You may want to try rolling back your update: Dashboard > Setting > Storage > Highlight your storage device and press LB RB X LB RB X > Select yes and your console will restart. When you log back in you should be prompted to redownload the latest update.

    If that doesn't help sort things out, I would definitely recommend trying the steps outlined in our

    support.xbox.com/.../system-update-help

    You may also want to check the Xbox customer Support Chat if this doesn't work:

    support.xbox.comm/contact-us

    Please let us know how you get on, and fingers crossed this may solve the problem.

    Another solution might be to test your network settings:

    Problem

    If you’re seeing this message and error code, it means that your Xbox 360 console software is not up to date.

    Solutions

    Restart your console.

    Press the Xbox Guide button on your controller.

    Go to Settings, and then select System Settings.

    Select Network Settings.

    Select Wired Network or your wireless network name (if you are prompted to do so).

    Select Test Xbox LIVE Connection.

    Select Yes if you are prompted to update your console software.

    Although in my own opinion if it works on one account and not the other the best thing would be to go directly to Microsoft Customer Support if the two solutions did not work:

    support.xbox.com/contact-us

    Regards,

    Daniel

    Thanks for your reply. Removing and re-downloading my profile resolved the issue for me.

    Sadly due to your gamer tag not being offensive (God like can mean anything from being god like in the sense of greek mythology)

    In my personal opinion I do not think Microsoft will let you change it for free until allot of people complain against it.

    Xbox Customer. ^_^

    Note: Talking about it in the Xbox Live Wishlist/Feedback is not going to resolve the problem and give you your gamer-Tag back but your welcome to discuss your experience there about it.
