    Help! My highly specific gamertag is unavailable


    I`m almost 100 % certain that I myself, at some point, claimed my gamertag, but then I couldn`t remember that account. Now that I bought an xbox and entered, I`m fighting myself over the ownership of my gamertag (I use this tag in all games, not just xbox
    so it would be nice to keep it.)

    I need to get in touch with xbox support or something but all of that was unavailable so I had to make a post!

    :)

  2. Huge connection issue

    Been having this huge problem with connection on my Xbox One. Every time i try to connect to my wifi i get NAT Type Unavailable and Service Info Unavailable. I've done everything between hard resetting, power cycling, to factory resets, and even port forwarding/static

    Any help would be highly appreciated..

    Specific Gamertag "Unavailable"

    Hi Leland, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    When you remove a letter from the Gamertag, you are changing the name, resulting in a different string.

    I am sorry, but if the name is not available, you won't be able to use it. This can be due to various reasons.

    Gamertag from inactive account

    I’ve had a similar issue trying to recover a gametag. Gamertags are highly unique and it can be a very long time before Xbox releases the gamertag once the account is full closed out. Rule of thumb if you try to use a gamertag and it says unavailable unfortunately
    you will have to use one that is available.

    gamerTag Unavailable

    Hey there Kakashi Soul,

    Thank you for reaching out to us on the forums, Smwutches is correct, if you are unable to use the gamertag then it is possible it is still in use in different Microsoft servers.

    Unfortunately, if you the gamertag you are trying to create is showing up as unavailable then it is simply unavailable, there is nothing that anyone at Xbox can do to make it available.

    Take a look at the following support article for more information on the newer gamertag update.


    We will lock this thread as we are unable to assist with this specific issue. If you have any other questions for us please start a new thread so that we may continue to assist you.

    I hope this helps.

    I will now attempt to give you an answer that you can comprehend.

    "the gamertag Bonkers says its unavailable"

    Unavailable- Not available, accessible, or at hand.

    In other words, if the gamertag is unavailable, it is, as a matter of fact, not available.
