  1. Help with regaining access to gamertag


    Hi, I set up an account for my son a few years ago. 6 months ago he sold his Xbox so he deleted everything off of it so the new owner couldn’t access our card details etc. However, we now have another Xbox and my son wants to gain access back into his account but every email or phone number that we thought was linked to the gamertag is not correct. How do we recover the account with only knowing the gamertag? Please help, he is devastated that all his stuff on his account has been lost.

    :)

    Help with regaining access to gamertag

    Hello, Kerrianne B. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to assist with your inquiry today.

    I’m sorry to say, but it is not possible to recover an account with only the gamertag.

    Hello, Dawid. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to provide some assistance with your inquiry today.

    If the account recovery form is not accepted by using instead a previously linked phone number, email, or previously created Skype username (is not the same as our gamertag), I’m afraid to say that’s not possible to recover the account.

    Furthermore, I know this is not the kind of answer you were expecting, but I hope it helps in some way.

    Thanks for your attention,

    Arturo.

    Account Hacked?

    contact xbox support to let them investigate all unauthorized access.

    if your account has only low value by itself (purchases, gametime, whatever you care about) you may register a new email for starting a 2nd gamertag, you may also wait until support was able to help you regain access on your 1st gamertag
