    Gamertag Mistake


    I was using my one name change to get rid of the x from the middle of my name. At first it worked and the gamer tag went through, but not to my knowledge, it ended up adding numbers to the end without warning me. What I was wondering was if I could
    get my name reverted since it added numbers to the end without my knowledge?

    :)

    It all depends if you choose a gamertag thats already been used. Thats the reason you getting the #0000 at the end. New gamertag system is a bit similar to discord username, those #0000 are there so you can have any gamertag you want without adding extra
    characters or random words to come up with a unique gamertag.

    Unfortunately not. Only the first change is free and now if you need to change your gamertag you will need to pay the fees.

    Mistake in Gamertags

    The #0000 at the end are part of the new gamertag system. If you don't want the numbers to be displayed at the end of your gamertag then you'll have to come up with a gamertag thats unused by anyone. Any unused gamertags will not have the #0000 at the
    end, so if you don't want the numbers, keep trying different gamertags until you find one that isn't already taken.
