    Changed gamer tag, but old one still showing above new one!

    Hello, in this case Gamerta will have to wait as recommended, updating the game server databases may take some time.

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    It's been over 48 hours. I'm really, really sorry about that!

    Anyway, as a user like you in the community, the ideal thing would be to check what happened with your GamerTag update through the option informed in the previous answer.

    Hoping that everything works out for the best.

    I hope I helped you. Hugs!
