    Really disappointed that by tweaking the initial offering from Microsoft that I now have to pay 9.99 for a new gamertag. Seems like this should be a pretty easy thing to change and it makes no sense that I should have to pay so much for a small thing. No
    other organization makes you pay a fee like that to make a small change.

    :)

    Gamer tag got changed

    Someone changed my gamer tag from HeavyMetalPinas to HappyBunny, but I don't know how they did it. I just went onto my Xbox and my gamer tag was changed. I couldn't change it back to the original gamer tag. Now, I have to make a new one and pay $10. Why
    did this happen? Did someone hack me? At first, I just sent someone named HappyBunny a message saying, "I tried to save you." and after the game his name was as my gamer tag.

    Certain other platforms don't let you change your gamertag at all.

    You get one free change to change your gamertag from the random tag you are given when you start your account,any other changes have to be paid for.

    If there was no fee then people would be changing their tags all the time plus it pays for the server space that every account uses as well as other things.

    At least Microsoft allows gamertag changes. Other companies don't.

    Name change

    Can i get rid of the numbers behind my name because i dislike numbers and i wanted my old name back but now it has numbers in it

    There can only be one MasterChief think about it! The meaning of the hashtag behind your gamer tag is that others have the same one as you. the
    new gamer tag feature automatically assigns a numeric value to the end of your gamer tag. If a player chooses a gamer tag "first" it will not have any numbers behind.

    Think of something real original. Features on Xbox are always changing!

    Can I change my tag number?

    Ok, because this is kind of another account because I used another Microsoft account to log in to Java. I just wanted to have the same set of numbers for both accounts

    Can I change my tag number?

    What do you mean? Are you talking about the number suffix at the end of a gamertag?
