    If you already got charged, no. But I would suggest to stop and contact xbox support if it tries to charge you again.

    Hey StormyShadow42 -

    Give KristianGray's steps a try. If changing your Gamertag prompts a charge, please do reach out to phone support via the
    Contact Us page for billing/account assistance. We are unable to provide help for those on the public forums.

    Also, as this is an older thread, please feel free to create a new thread if you encounter any additional support issues you need assistance with in the future.

    Thanks for understanding!

    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:
