Gamertag changed automatically

Sinuate · Jan 7, 2019

Last week I was checking the availability of other gamer tags and for some reason it did not ask to charge my card as it usually does and it changed my gamer tag automatically from to PhiLLeY and I am upset because I was not intending in changing
this tag.

Hi ZuraZura1,

Thanks for the reply! Sounds like you've taken the right step in requesting a Case Review with the Enforcement team.
Should the Gamertag change be upheld, and you are unhappy with the assigned Gamertag and wish to change it, one may purchase a new Gamertag through the standard Gamertag change process as our Ambassadors have indicated. However, the
Gamertag that received the forced change will remain unobtainable. I recommend taking a look at our Enforcement site's tips for creating a Gamertag for future use should you need it: https://enforcement.xbox.com/home/staysafe#topic9.

Since there is no further resolution and in an effort to minimize repetitive answers we will be locking this thread, but if you have any further questions or concerns feel free to come back to the Xbox forum (Do not repost the same question or
thread as that would violate the Xbox Forum Guidelines).

We wish you the best and happy gaming.

It should be returned to normal in about a week because the gamertag isnt exactly an offensive one

Well, I suggest talking to support and checking the Xbox Enforcement website, so you will know exactly what happened, whether it was a mistake or a punishment.

I've seen this happen to some people, but their gamertags are back to normal, I don't remember how much time passed, but it didn't last more than a week.

The people in the forums are gamers just like you not engineers. Sounds like someone may have changed it for you. Does anyone have access to your account information? If so you may want to see if they may have changed it.
