    Gamertag Change


    My Gamertag changed overnight from [Mod Removed] to AngryJoey263780.

    My name is David [Mod Removed] and I go by [Mod Removed]. It is also my online persona on YouTube and various social networking sites. The name was not flagged when it was created so I don't understand why it was changed
    a week later. I would like it recovered as soon as possible.

    Scott from the support chat asked me to include this number ([Mod Removed]) to provide his support in the recovery of my Gamertag.

    Thanks,

    [Mod Removed]

    :)

    Xbox one followers privacy/spam concerns. END IT

    Even if you change your Gamertag, you purchases and saves are still locked to your account. I could change my gamertag right now and I still have everything. It stays with the email address you signed up with, not gamertag.

    Need your opinion about a couple of gamer profiles

    It cost 800 Microsoft Points to change a gamertag, $10. Change your gamertag of the one you like to something else, and then change the other one to the gamertag you like. $20 investment and your playing on the gamertag you want to play on, and you have the achievements to show off your progression of games.

    I have also notified Scott that my name was censored in the request. He suggest that I repost my name here as
    [Mod Removed] so that you could understand what I was trying to say.

    Thanks,

    [Mod Removed]

    You're probably aware that *** is a slang term for ***. If you weren't, you are now. it doesn't matter that it's also a regular name, all that matters is that it has a meaning that can be reasonably termed as being inappropriate.

    However this isn't the right forum, the PET only reads posts made here:

    forums.xbox.com/.../41.aspx

    So you'll want to post your inquiry there.

    Scott from support chat has given you a bunch of wrong information.

    You are not allowed to post support reference numbers on the forums & trying to bypass the swear filter is not a good idea either.

    As said,your tag contains a slang term for the,shall we say,a mans downstairs area, that is why it was changed.

    You will more than likely be removed from the ambassador program as well for having an enforcement action on your profile.

    Gamer tag

    I received a forced Gamertag change. Can XBLPET let me choose a new Gamertag for free?
    Some rumors give the impression that XBLPET will provide a free Gamertag change to accounts that have received a forced Gamertag change. This is not the case.

    In the past, a forced Gamertag change gave users the opportunity to change the offending Gamertag free of charge. Unfortunately, this gesture was prone to abuse, and many people simply chose new, equally offensive Gamertags. As a result,
    the Gamertag enforcement process changed. A forced Gamertag change now automatically assigns a new Gamertag to the account, much in the same way a system-generated Gamertag is provided when you first sign up for Xbox Live.

    If a player is unhappy with the assigned Gamertag and wishes to change it, he or she may purchase a new Gamertag through the

    standard Gamertag change process

    gamertag change

    Hi there,

    I'm afraid there are no free gamertag changes, if a gamertag was deemed to break the CoC/ToU then you will given a generated one and if you want to change the gamertag into something chosen by yourself it will have the fee like any gamertag change.

    See this link for the steps:
